I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

A big failure. The argument about streaming the traffic cameras into the real-time crime center was that all the feeds were publicly available anyway, a fact that we now know to be untrue. That this happened at all erodes public trust in city government, and in surveillance cameras specifically.

Around him are a variety of transgender women, all wearing casual streetwear, stockings, minishorts, skirts, kneehighs, docs, sneakers, chokers, tattoos, piercings, fishnets, sheer clothes, crop tops, beanies, etc. A girl with dyed hair stands behind the priest, holding a portrait of Pabuela, with a little black ribbon on the portrait's corner. Behind her, a goth girl is a pallbearer.

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?

Officer Jose Jimenez, 34, had only been assigned to the SWAT team for less than a year. He was previously a member of the Community Response Group, SPD’s “problem-oriented policing” unit.

But an increasing proportion of arrests have been made by local law enforcement in partnership with ICE, via 287(g) agreements. In many regions, it can be difficult to know when local officers are conducting routine policework or immigration enforcement. In many cases, they are doing both.

Juarez was also a major proponent of a $160M new North Precinct for the SPD, "the most expensive precinct building in United States history." A militarized, fortified luxury bunker. (We blocked it). Remember the Bunker when she tries to pull some shady shit on this year's budget
The Seattle police are in the news again. This time for a lavish new $160 million North Precinct building that The Seattle Times’ Brier Dudley claims is the most expensive precinct building in United States history. The epic structure contains a 106,082-square-foot precinct house straddling a 241,019-square-foot parking garage. In other words, the complex is 70% parking.

SPD is just straight up saying publicly that they need to be 'freed' to police our communities 'proactively' We can agree on one thing; Violent offenders need to be held accountable We should start with Officer Caleb Howard, who also attacked my friend on Mayday www.divestspd.com/p/bad-cop-ba...
Tweet from the Seattle Police Officers guild
• Sep 15 g
Mayor Katie's gun violence plan is long on programs and short on the one thing Seattle needs most: accountability.
Prevention matters. So do serious consequences for violent offenders.
Seattle already has a powerful tool to curb violence - its police officers. Give them the staffing, support, and freedom to do the job.
Let cops be cops.

There is an attached image that says
SPOG supports prevention as one component of any serious strategy to reduce gun violence.
But prevention alone is not enough. There must also be accountability, with serious and meaningful consequences for those who commit violent crimes and repeatedly put our communities at risk.
Not surprisingly, Mayor Katie's plan is overly complicated. Seattle does not need another layer of programs, studies, partnerships, and bureaucracy before taking action. Mayor Wilson already has one of the most effective resources available to curb violence: Seattle police officers.
Give officers the staffing, support, and freedom to proactively police our neighborhoods. Hold violent offenders accountable.

ICE cannot do what it’s doing without local law enforcement. They need their manpower and infrastructure. That means if you want to stop ICE you are going to have to confront police collaboration and police power. I’m sorry but progressive hopes of avoiding this conflict are a recipe for failure.

Mayor Katie Wilson's budget boosts SPD's budget 13.9% — $488 M to $556 M — to fund 1,250 officers, or 66 new cops.
For comparison, Mayor Bruce Harrell increased police budget from $355 M in '22 to 488.59 in '26 for an average of 9.35% increase each of his 4 years.
