Post Agenda date set

Finally! The City Council Post Agenda mtg. on Police officers/domestic violence will be on:

Monday, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m.

It will be televised.

In 2003 a Police Chief in Tacoma, WA, who'd been abusing his wife for years, murdered her & killed himself. This caused the Seattle Post-Intelligencer to run an excellent series of articles on the topic of law enforcement officers who are domestic abusers. The information & insight are amazing, heart breaking, but necessary reading in my opinion.

The series is titled "Badge of Dishonor", primary reporter was Ruth Teichroeb.
