As the City continues to wrangle over budget priorities, both Mayor Bruce Harrell and Seattle City Council Budget Chair Dan Strauss agree that the City can never spend too much money on cops. Strauss’s recent budget proposal even upped the ante on Harrell, suggesting that the Mayor’s $62 million budget increase for the Seattle Police Department (SPD) wasn’t enough, and adding another $10 million on top of that. by Ashley Nerbovig

As the City continues to wrangle over budget priorities, both Mayor Bruce Harrell and Seattle City Council Budget Chair Dan Strauss agree that the City can never spend too much money on cops. Strauss’s recent budget proposal even upped the ante on Harrell, suggesting that the Mayor’s $62 million budget increase for the Seattle Police Department (SPD) wasn’t enough, and adding another $10 million on top of that.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at the SPD officers who earn six figure salaries to handcuff people in mental health crises, drive almost four times the speed limit, and use a car to stop a man on a bike.

Case #2023OPA-0291

First up, we have Crisis Response Squad Officer Albert Khandzhayan who on July 4, 2023, responded to a call about an alleged domestic violence assault. A witness spotted the suspect hop on a bike and peddle away from the scene. An officer on scene asked for officers to check the area to try to find the man. Khandzhayan spotted the man at a bus stop on his bike and tried to speak to him, at which point the man hopped back on his bike and ran from the officers. Khandzhayan followed the man in his patrol car, using his PA system to order the man to stop. The man ignored the order. Khandzhayan told Office of Police Accountability (OPA) investigators that the man rode recklessly, and he believed could endanger himself or others. So, Khandzhayan moved his patrol car out in front of the man. The man said he was traveling at 20 miles per hour at the time, and that Khandzhayan sideswiped him when he pulled his patrol car in close, causing the man to flip off his bike, and fall hard enough to knock the wind out of him. Khandzhayan denied hitting the man. The man complained of sore ribs, but doctors found no noticeable injuries.

OPA found Khandzhayan’s use of force reasonable and noted that SPD has no policy on how to handle people trying to elude cops on bikes. In 2023, the City paid Khandzhayan a salary of $150,000.

Case #2024OPA-0014

Next up, we have SPD North Precinct Officer Derek Norton who on January 3 responded to a call about a man reportedly experiencing a mental health crisis. Norton and Officer Kieran Barton checked on the man at about 3:30 am and a witness told officers the man posed no harm to anyone and they expected mental health professionals to arrive later. However, at 8 am, SPD returned to the building for another call about the man. A case manager asked officers to intervene because the man seemed escalated, evidenced by his banging on the door and breaking things. Barton, Norton, as well as Officer Jacklyn Ferver, and a fourth unnamed officer, decided to involuntarily commit the man.

As officers approached the man’s door, Barton brought out his taser and the unnamed officer unholstered his gun, though according to the OPA report, neither officer pointed their weapons at the man. Barton knocked on the man’s door, and the man opened it completely naked. The man complied with Barton’s order to step out and allowed the cops to handcuff him. A witness asked the officers to put clothes on the man before they escorted him out, and Ferver wrapped a jacket around the man’s waist.

As Norton and Ferver escorted the man out of the building, Norton asked Ferver, a woman officer who was a student at the time, “You gonna search him?” Norton laughed. He asked her again, “You wanna search him?” Norton laughed again, and Ferver didn’t respond.

Norton’s comment earned him a written reprimand for unprofessional behavior. Norton argued he intended to just lighten the mood, but OPA investigators argued that Norton chose to lighten the mood at the expense of a nearly naked, handcuffed man, reportedly experiencing a mental health crisis, who officers were escorting to a patrol car in public in broad daylight. The City paid Norton a salary of $166,000 in 2023 to handle these situations with this level of sensitivity.

Case #2024OPA-0080

Finally, we have SPD Officers Jessica Chandler and Christian Lara who on February 12, 2024 responded to a call about a woman allegedly hurting her family and attempting suicide. Nothing especially notable about the call except that Chandler texted from her personal phone as she drove to the scene and Lara drove 80mph in a 25mph zone. The OPA sent both possible policy violations to each officer’s chain of command. In 2023, Chandler earned a salary of more than $148,000, and Lara earned $168,000. Lara no longer works for SPD.

The Stranger's only news round-up. by Nathalie Graham

International District stabbings: On Friday, someone stabbed five people in what appears to be a random, unprovoked attack in Seattle's Chinatown International District. The same person is believed to be responsible for other stabbings in the neighborhood that occurred between Thursday and Friday. In total, police believe the suspect stabbed nine victims in two days. Police arrested the suspect on Friday. His bail was set for $2 million.

Back at it: Around 300 people gathered over the weekend at the Space Needle for a rally against Donald Trump's re-election. It feels like we were protesting Donald Trump's presidency just yesterday. Time is a flat circle when your country keeps electing a fascist.  

Hundreds of immigrants, students, activists and union workers are protesting in Seattle against U.S. imperialism, violent policies against migrants, police violence and structural economic violence and exploitation by the capitalist class. pic.twitter.com/dZ9JFFPAii

Income tax when? According to 2023 census data, the median wages for tech workers in the Seattle area last year was about $157,200. That's a $14,000 increase from 2022's tech-worker wage estimate, according to the Seattle Times' FYI Guy. Meanwhile, the median income for non-tech workers in Seattle was about $81,100 and only bumped up a measly $2,800 since 2022. 

Vaccinate your kids: Stop being stupid and get your kids their shots. Whooping cough is on the rise with nearly 1,200 cases documented statewide. Of those cases, over 80% are in children. "This is just the tip of the iceberg. We’re starting to see the impact of waning immunization," Dr. James Lewis, a health officer with the Snohomish County Health Department, told KIRO7. 

Help SIFF staff out: Go see a secret staff pick on Wednesday and throw a few bucks in the kitty to help support SIFF workers who are out of a job now that the Egyptian Theater out of commission.

Analysis suggests Gaza dead are mostly women and children: New analysis from the United Nations Human Rights Office found that 70% of those killed by Israel in Gaza were women and children. The UN verified the details of 8,119 people killed in Gaza from November 2023 to April 2024. Of them, 26 percent were women. Around 44 percent were children, most commonly between five and nine years old. The report said the data indicates "an apparent indifference to the death of civilians and the impact of the means and methods of warfare." 

Wildfire to the East: Dry, windy conditions are to blame for a brush fire in New Jersey that now covers 39 acres. The blaze is currently 30% contained. Meanwhile, at least six more fires are burning in the state. And at the same time, two acres burned in the middle of Brooklyn’s Prospect Park, killing a teenage park ranger. Wildfires have increased in east coast states thanks to historic droughts. Boston to New York City and Philadelphia to Washington, D.C are under red flag warnings. The bad news is everything is going to get worse thanks to who we elected president. 

Meanwhile: A California blaze tearing through Ventura County is 31% contained and still covers 32 square miles.

Trump chooses UN ambassador: New York Rep. Elise Stefanik has been chosen to fill the role. Stefanik, who serves as House Republican Conference Chair, is a Trump loyalist with little foreign policy experience. Trump called her a “strong, tough, and smart America First fighter.” 

Bird flu in Canada: The first presumptive case of bird flu in a human has been identified in British Columbia. The infected person is a teenager who likely contracted the illness from contact with animals. So far, the virus hasn't spread from human to human. 

Another abortion horror story: A woman in Georgia was 18 weeks pregnant with her second child when she miscarried. Despite her bleeding and her risk of serious infection, doctors could not perform a routine dilation and curettage due to abortion laws. They had to wait 24 hours or until the woman seemed like she might die unless she received the surgery. Sure enough, they waited until her hemoglobin levels were perilously low and then operated. While she survived, the pain and fear she went through was not medically necessary. Her pain was legislated.

Wicked whoopsie: Mattel released special dolls for the new Wicked movie. On the bottom of the packaging, Mattel listed "Wicked.com" to drive people to the movie site. Only Wicked.com is a porn site that makes parody porn movies. Mattel said sorry.
