King County Executive Dow Constantine issues order paving the way to restart death inquests

King County Executive Dow Constantine issues order paving the way to restart death inquests Inquests into the deaths of people killed by King County law enforcement have been on pause for years while executive orders were challenged in the court system. Author: Helen Smith Updated: 4:33 PM PDT July 28, 2021 KING COUNTY, Wash. Death inquests could start again in King County after years of delays now that County Executive Dow Constantine issued an executive order bringing the county s inquest process in line with a Washington State Supreme Court ruling.  Inquests are administrative, fact-finding investigations that occur whenever a law enforcement officer is involved in a person s death while on the job. 

It s time for change : First prominent challenger for King County Executive in 12 years makes his case

State Sen. Joe Nguyen. (Campaign photo) For the first time since he took office in 2009, King County Executive Dow Constantine will face a prominent reelection challenger in state Sen. Joe Nguyen. But why does Nguyen believe that now is the time for a change? He spoke to KIRO Radio’s Gee & Ursula Show to state his case. Constantine’s past election challengers have primarily been Republicans, including his most recent opponent in 2017, Bill Hirt, who lost by a wide 77% to 22% margin. Nguyen, though, is a fellow Democrat, and in a county known for its status as a progressive stronghold, he argues that it’s time for a change.
