Summary

A Washington State Patrol sergeant faces serious charges including felony stalking and violating a domestic violence protection order, allegedly showing up at the victim’s home in uniform with a firearm months after the order was issued. GPS logs show multiple unauthorized visits outside his patrol zone, and he reportedly threatened to kill anyone who took his career. He pleaded not guilty, was denied bail at $500K with electronic monitoring, and remains in custody. The patrol is conducting internal reviews and has placed him on paid administrative leave while criminal and internal investigations proceed.
