Let’s Talk About the Problems of Sheriff Ed Troyer (Oct. 27, 2021)

Crossing Division

Well, it’s been a busy 10 days in Pierce County! The Attorney General filed criminal charges against Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer, and then the County’s investigative report on the Sheriff’s conduct was issued. While both were covered in local and national news media, when you read the actual Determination of Probable Cause, and the Moran Investigative Report, there are far more disturbing details.

So, we read it for you.

Part 1 is the AGO’s Declaration for Determination of Probable Cause. You can also read it here: https://www.atg.wa.gov/news/news-releases/criminal-charges-filed-against-pierce-county-sheriff

Part 2 is the Moran Investigative Report. You can read it, and see the attachments here: https://www.piercecountywa.gov/DocumentCenter/View/109150/Moran-Investigation-Oct-2021-findings

Please listen–it’s a long episode, but the details are significant. Then consider what should happen next. If you have questions or comments, send them our way!
