Witness in Alan Smith’s murder trial commits suicide T BY SARAH KEHOE

he girlfriend of Alan Justin Smith, the Bothell man accused of killing his estranged wife early last year, died April 8 in
Seattle. According to the King County Medial Examiner’s Office, Love Thai committed suicide. Marks around her neck indicate she died from a rope or something around
her neck. Thai lived at Pacific Court in Tukwilla. The apartment manager could not confirm if Thai had died in her home. Thai told the Reporter in July 2013 she was pregnant
with Smith’s child and there was an ultrasound photo posted to her personal Facebook account around the same time. The medical examiner’s office could not confirm if Thai was still
pregnant at the time of her death. Lawyers for Smith asked a judge to push back his murder trial this week so they could have more time to prepare. Smith’s trial date
was moved from May 2 to June 13, according to Craig Matheson, senior deputy prosecuting attorney at Snohomish County Prosectors Office. [ more WITNESS page 5 ]
Kenmore residents flock to the docks to watch returning slough race BY SARAH KEHOE skehoe@bothell-reporter.com
Bobby Stinson, 70, sat on a chair on the dock at Log Boom Park Saturday, eagerly waiting for the boat race to start. “I am a lifetime resident of Bothell and grew up watching the boat races back in the day,” he said. “It was more exciting than the Fourth of July. I can’t believe it’s back.” The Kenmore Hydroplane Cup event returned last weekend after a 38-year hiatus. More than 1,000 people attended the event held at the north end of Lake Washington at the newly remodeled Kenmore Boat Launch. The original race, known as the slough race, was popular between 1928 and 1976 and drew crowds of spectators between 40,000 and 80,000. The race stopped after more and more houses were built
along the river and the waters changed. “I came here with my dad when I was younger to watch the races and I remember thinking it was the coolest thing in the world,” said Herb Ahten, a Kenmore resident. “I’m so excited it’s back and I hope it becomes an annual tradition again.” The timed exhibition race featured a variety of boats including two cylinder and three-and-up cylinder boats, Native American war canoes, junior hydroplanes and RC hydroplane demonstration. Competitors will race one or two boats at a time up the Sammamish River, navigate around the challenging oval course and back to the Kenmore Boat Launch. The racing features competitors from the Seattle Outboard Association. Stinson said he came to [ more RACE page 2 ]

McMenamins invite private investors to help fund project in Bothell McMenamins is looking for a group of investors to raise $8 million of the equity in the $26 million redevelopment of the
historic Anderson Building in Bothell. McMenamins itself will put in $1 million and act as managing partner. It’s the first time the company has sought outside equity
partners for a redevelopment project. “This is one of the largest projects we’ve taken on all at once,” said Mike Mcmenamins, founder of Mcmenamins.
The Anderson School redevelopment will have a 73-room hotel, restaurants and bars, on-site brewery, meeting space, a pool and a spa. Mike and his partner, Brian Mcmenamins, drew
ideas from the history of the building to incorporate in their newly completed design concepts. “Preserving the W. A. Anderson Building is important to Bothell residents.
It is immensely rewarding to see how enthusiastic the community is about the McMenamins project,” said Bothell City Manager Bob Stowe. “When complete, [ more PROJECT page 3 ]

With 34 percent of project costs needed to begin construction, and significant related public and private investment in place, the multi-faceted Anderson School renovation is well-suited to the new investment strategy. “We think that the community of Bothell will really enjoy our new developments, as it is suitable for any age and most occasions,” Brian said. “We will have free pool access, free meeting rooms. We are doing this because we want Bothell residents to take ownership of it.” Construction is expected to begin this July or August.
The city of Kenmore has partnered with the state Business Licensing Service (BLS) to offer a streamlined licensing and renewal process to its business community. The BLS is a clearinghouse for business licensing – offering nearly 400 licenses, registrations and endorsements from 11 state agencies and – with the addition of Kenmore – 59 cities. The Washington State Department of Revenue administers the BLS. Kenmore businesses can now register or renew licenses online at business. wa.gov/BLS. The service brings all local Kenmore business requirements into a “one-stop shop” and makes available most, if not all, the state registrations also needed to operate, such as liquor licenses. Kenmore businesses located inside city limits and currently registered with Revenue will be sent registration letters this month. Letter recipients are required to reply by May 31 in order to be issued an updated state business license that lists the city of Kenmore registration.

the Anderson School entertainment complex will animate downtown Bothell, and it is a key part of the amazing transformation occurring now.” The company established a separate LLC, Anderson School Properties, and is launching an $8 million crowd-funding capital campaign. Opportunities to purchase Anderson School Properties LLC securities under this private placement start at $250,000 for qualified accredited investors — individuals with $1 million or more in net worth or greater than $200,000 in annual income, or qualified banks, partnerships, corporations, nonprofits and trusts. Investors will receive an 8 percent per annum, non-compounded, preferred return on invested capital. “Bothell is a forwardthinking city, and the Anderson School building has great bones and lots of character. From the moment Brian and I saw it, we knew its potential for Bothell’s revitaliza-

But perhaps more important than financial returns is the positive impact that public gardens, live music, historical spaces, quality jobs and places to gather over a pint can have on a community.” The funding strategy was made possible when the Securities and Exchange Commission amended Regulation D with Rule 506(c) in September 2013, widen-

t would be easy to say “no” to King County Proposition 1, the tax and vehicle fee for transportation that’s on the April 22 ballot. After all, who wants more taxes? But that would be the wrong thing to do. All of King County will be served best with a “yes” vote to both maintain transit service at current levels and provide maintenance and safety improvements to roads in cities and in unincorporated King County. Everyone who drives on our roads, including freeways and highways, knows firsthand how congested things are. Bumper-to-bumper traffic is a daily occurrence. Take away transit routes and things only will get worse. And, yes, traffic around here can get worse. Metro Transit provides 400,000 rides each day to people throughout the county. Without Prop 1, Metro would have to make drastic cuts to its service that would affect 80 percent of bus riders. If that happens, it is estimated that an additional 30,000 cars will be added to our roads each day. Worse, those who must use the bus — people with disabilities, students and working families — will find themselves stranded. Approving Prop 1 comes at a cost, of course. Prop 1 would levy a 0.1 percent sales tax and install a $60 vehicle fee. Each would last for 10 years. To help ease the pain on the poor, Prop 1 also allows for a low-income vehicle fee rebate of $20 and also a low-income Metro transit fare. None of this is meant to dismiss the concerns of opponents of Prop 1. In fact, we share many of those concerns. We know that Metro’s transit costs are high and we aren’t convinced that Metro truly has done all it can to rein them in. And we don’t like any increase in the sales tax because it is regressive and hits the poor more harshly than the rich. The bottom line is that transit service is too important — for rich and poor alike. It must be maintained and Prop 1 will do that. Vote “yes.”
Celebrate local 911 emergency dispatchers This week, April 13-19, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of National Telecommunicators’ Week. Since 1991, public safety agencies across the nation have designated the second week in April as the time to publicly recognize the dispatchers who play such a vitally important role in keeping our communities safe. When a person in crisis calls 911, our dispatchers become their lifeline to safety and help. They are who we depend on to relay critical information both to and from our officers on the street. The skills a dispatcher must have are significant. During the course of their shift they might be required to calm a hysterical caller down and then immediately turn around and handle a multiple unit response to an in-progress incident. They must be capable of remaining calm
and focused even during times when they can hear a dangerous disturbance occurring in the background yet also know how to provide comfort to a child who called 911 because they are home alone and are scared. We depend on them to manage radio exchanges with multiple units and still remember to do a status check on an officer who has been out a bit longer than usual on a traffic stop. Our dispatchers perform this essential work for Public Safety Departments and our citizens 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and they do it with professionalism, integrity and pride. So take the time during this week and let them know you appreciate the critical service they provide for our community. Carol Cummings

Report inoperable street lights to PSE At the March 24 Kenmore City Council meeting a few people spoke of street lights in their neighborhoods that were not working. Our community cannot afford to pay a city employee to drive around at night and look for inoperable street lights; the citizens must do their part to report these. Please go to the Puget Sound Energy website to report street light problems.

Thanks to elected officials for helping women with cancer If a woman develops breast or cervical cancer, whether or not her life can be saved should not be determined by the size of her bank account. The new health care law addresses this inequity, but as the transition to it takes place, some women are in danger of slipping through the cracks. Our concern for these vulnerable women motivated us to join the volunteers of the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network for their Lobby Day in Olympia a few weeks ago. With cancer survivors and caregivers, we met with legislators from all parts of the state to ask for the restoration of the Breast and Cervical Cancer
Treatment Program. It was time well-spent. Our lawmakers told us how cancer had touched their lives and that they were interested in discussing continued funding for the program. For nearly two decades, the program has enabled uninsured and underinsured women to be screened for breast and cervical cancer, and for those diagnosed with cancer to receive health care coverage to treat their cancer. When the legislature adjourned last week, we were delighted to learn that the program was included in the final budget. We especially applaud Sen. Andy Hill and Rep. Ross Hunter for putting a high priority on the needs of women cancer patients in the state of Washington. It is reassuring to know that even during contentious times in Olympia, there are level-headed and sensible elected officials who do what it takes to ensure that no woman with cervical or breast cancer is denied care based on the size of her bank account.
Mary-Claire King and Eunice Hostetter, American Cancer Society
Vote no on transit tax Thoughtful citizens in King County must vote “no” on yet another unfair Metro Transit tax hike — inequitable both for present and
potential transit users and also for taxpayers countywide — to remind officials elected here to represent their constituents far more faithfully. East and south county taxpayers underwrite 35 percent and 30 percent of Metro’s excessive costs, but receive, respectively, only 17 percent and 20 percent of that agency’s essential transportation. Immense revenues are diverted to subsidize Seattle, thereby leaving insufficient funds to close gaping holes in important transit routes, including pivotal connections long missing between family wage employment in east county and less expensive housing in south county. Suburban and rural taxpayers provide almost exactly two-thirds of Metro’s resources, despite receiving just over one-third of bus service. This massive transit and taxation inequality is accelerating, presently, as routes outside Seattle are cut repeatedly to safeguard transit there. The proposed tax hike would not simply fail to resolve this enormous unfairness but, if enacted, would actually worsen gross inequities between transit unavailability already shorting two-thirds of county residents and thereby still greater tax injustice.

The Kenmore Business Alliance is growing and you’re invited to join them With the help of the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce, Kenmore businesses are connecting. Known as the Kenmore Business Alliance (KBA), Kenmore business men and women are organizing to create a unified voice and to create more synergies and business opportunities for each other.
The KBA started with a small committee of passionate Kenmore business people within the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce. Annie Harkess of Kenmore’s Key Bank led the way, and more businesses followed. The group meets once per month on the second Thursday from 8:30 – 10:00 AM at the Kenmore Key Bank (although the group will soon outgrow this meeting space!). The KBA also sends out a quarterly e-newsletter that includes upcoming City, Chamber and KBA events as well as current/upcoming local issues. “A connected business community is a critical component of a successful, healthy community. I am very excited to be a part of this group, am thankful for the support from the Chamber and City and hope that other businesses will join us” said Harkess when asked about the KBA. In addition to their monthly meetings, the KBA periodically co-hosts After Hours networking events with the City. The next event is scheduled for Thursday, May 1 from 5:30 to 7:30 PM at Kenmore City Hall. We hope to see you there! The Kenmore Business Alliance is an exciting opportunity to get involved, help improve the business climate, and grow your own business. You do not currently need to be a member of the Chamber to get on the KBA e-newsletter mailing list or join them for their monthly meetings.

“While certainly tragic, I don’t think [Thai’s death] will affect the trial at all,” Matheson said. Smith, who plead not guilty in July, is accused of killing his estranged wife last February and sits in the Snohomish County Jail on $1 million bail. Smith is accused of murdering his wife Susann Smith, who was found on Feb. 12, face down, beaten and drowned to death in the bathtub of her Bothell home while her two kids were away, according to court documents. She had defensive wounds on her hands and arms, a fractured skull, and 19 separate blunt force strikes, according to court documents. She had to be identified by her dental records. Alan Smith moved back into the home with Love Thai in April 2013 and had hopes of regaining custody of his two young children, who had been taken by Washington State Child Protective Services. Alan Smith and Thai seemed to have a rocky relationship as police were called to Alan Smith’s home for various incidents during May 2013, including a report of Alan Smith and Thai having sex in the front yard and for a domestic disturbance. When Alan Smith was charged June 28, 2013, he said his life was in “chaos.” He stated that he was over his head “with Love Thai and her mental issues,” according to charging documents. When Alan Smith appeared in court September 23, 2013 on a misdemeanor charge of obstruction, Thai, was there to defend him. At the time, the two lived together in the home where Susann Smith was killed. “I feel absolutely safe — absolutely. We argue, we throw things, but we don’t hurt each other,” Thai said at the time. She also believed that Alan Smith is capable of killing. “I don’t know what his threshold is,” she said. “Is the possibility and the capability there? Yes.” But she said she was in love and trusts Alan Smith completely. “He said he did not do it,” Thai said. “So, I stand by him and the truth will always set people free.” Alan Smith and his attorney could not be reached for comment.

As we are approaching spring, we are entering a time of rejuvenation, new growth and cleansing. The change in seasons from winter to spring, according to Chinese medicine’s Principle of Five Elements, draws us into the energy of the wood element. The wood element signifies growth and is represented by the liver and gall bladder organs. The liver organ in Chinese medicine is slightly different than what we know of as the “liver” in Western medicine. The Chinese liver has several roles in the body. The liver is responsible for the harmony and smooth movement of qi in the body. The liver ideally is in a balanced state but when its job is disrupted, it can very easily become “stuck.” When the liver gets in the “stuck state” it cannot do its job of moving the qi and blood to where it needs to go, rather it holds onto the qi, resulting in symptoms. Such symptoms are abdominal pain and bloating, vision changes, depression, mood swings, and menstrual irregularities may result. As we embark into spring, what are some ways
like turmeric, and teas like green tea. • Move! The liver functions ideally if we are moving; either walking, running, or even stretching will help keep you healthy and the qi moving! Consider adding yoga into your morning routine, doing basic poses like cat/cow or taking a short lunch break

Catanzaro served that claims to support such on the Bastyr University revolutionary thinking and Institutional Review Board, alternative treatment in the but Bastyr would not conmedical arena.”
Bastyr University employees declined commenting on Catanzaro’s letter. “Bastyr University has no further comment on this ongoing investigation,” said Derek Wing, associate director of media at Bastyr. Also in his letter, Catanzaro accuses an oncologist at Swedish Medical Center of turning him in to the Department of Health after they lost a patient to him. The patient was battling stage 4 breast cancer and wanted to try Catanzaro’s personalized treatment plan instead of utilizing Swedish’s resources. “The patient had gone back to the same oncologist (director of the Breast Center) and informed her of what she was doing for treatment and this oncologist reported me to the DOH without consulting with me,” Catanzaro wrote. “She stated that I was doing
an unethical form of treatment on this patient and other patients that she was aware of.” Catanzaro said he is most upset his efforts to help patients have been put on hold. He has had to throw away around 15 patient treatments following a Cease and Desist order from the state. “These patients are all stage 4 cancer cases with serious threat to life if not given their treatment,” Catanzaro wrote.” The cost to my patients and organization has been astronomical. However, the greater cost has been having to face each of my patients and inform them that despite their desire to assert their constitutional right to treat their bodies as they so choose, the State of Washington has determined that they no longer have that right.”

othell naturopathic physician Dr. John Catanzaro sent a letter to Bastyr University, confronting them about what he calls “negative attacks” against him in the media regarding his suspension. Catanzaro is the founder and president of the Health and Wellness Institute in Bothell. He is facing charges by the Washington State Department of Health Board of Naturopathy for allegedly duping cancer patients into treatment with an unapproved experimental vaccine. Catanzaro appealed his suspension and is waiting for a scheduled hearing to take place. “The reason I am writing to you about this matter is that this battle is not
just about defending my license,” Catanzaro wrote. “It is more about addressing the government limiting the treatment choices in cancer to conventional practices and creating significant limitations and severe adverse reactions to those organizations that choose to think outside of conventional medicine to try and find treatment and cures in an individualized / personalized style of health care. The field of natural medicine needs your support now more than ever.” Catanzaro states the words a few Bastyr employees have said about him in the media are offensive. “I am not some quack physician who barely made it through school and operates some hole-inthe-wall medicine man type establishment bilking innocent and suffering patients out of their money

Bothell caretaker’s charges changed from murder to assault By Sarah Kehoe skehoe@bothell-reporter.com
A Bothell caretaker is now facing charges for assault in the first degree instead of attempted murder, after hitting her patient in the head with a lamp last Tuesday. Anna Ward, 52, is currently being held in Snohomish County Jail on $1 million bail for beating 92-year-old John Staeber, according to
charging documents. Staeber is in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center with fractures to the bones in his face and ribs. He also has injuries to his spleen, displaced teeth, multiple deep lacerations to his face and head, along with bruises on his chest, arms and legs, the documents continue. Ward told police she and her daughter had been living with Staeber rent-free in
exchange for Ward caring for him. Staeber suffered from Alzheimer’s Disease and cancer. Ward said there had been times where she felt she should pay Staeber for rent, but he always denied her request. Ward stated Staeber was often verbally abusive and would threaten to kick her and her daughter out of the home. Ward said she takes numerous prescrip-

tions because she has neck pain and was tired of taking care of Staeber because of his “incontinence,” the documents continued. The fight between Ward and Staeber started because he threatened to kick her out and caused her daughter to cry before she left for school. Ward sat next to Staeber on the bed to confront him and he reached toward her, triggering the fight. She said she
focused on hitting him in the head and he punched and scratched her. Later that day, Ward came to the Bothell Police Department with her sister and brother-in-law, admitting to hitting Staeber with a lamp and cane. She claimed the fight was somewhat mutual, but added, “I hit him real good.” Police saw bruises on her arms and legs, a small cut on
her arm and a bite mark on the inside of her thigh, the documents continued. “That’s nothing compared to what I did to him,” she said. The exposed areas of her arms and legs had dried blood on them. Ward said she changed out of her dress after the incident, placing the dress in the washing machine. “I just want to be away from him,” Ward said to police. “I just want to go to jail.”
It’s like waking up on vacation. Every day. You know the feeling. First, there’s the ridiculously long stretch. Then there’s the “What am I going to do today?” Which is followed with plans of fun, adventure, socializing, exercise, dining, and whatever you can imagine.

BRIEFS Bothell High School musicians to perform at Hot Java Cool Jazz The Bothell High School jazz musicians will perform at the 19th annual Hot Java Cool Jazz event at 7 p.m. on April 25 at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle. The concert is sponsored by Starbucks and will also feature musicians from Garfield,
Ballard, Mountlake Terrace and Roosevelt high schools. All proceeds from this event go to the five performing high schools. Tickets are $20 and available at any Bothell Starbucks, at the door and online. The full price of a ticket will go directly to the Bothell High School jazz program if purchased at a Bothell Starbucks.
Northshore seniors named 2014 Washington Scholars The Washington Stu-
orthwest Special Families (NSF) will partner with the Northshore YMCA to host the sixth Annual Can Do 5K run/walk April 26. The race was started by NSF as a safe event for disabled children to participate in and to raise awareness to the community of how to treat disabled children. “As a parent to a child with different abilities, it is important to me to show the world what people with disabilities can do,” said Natalia Bynum, race director. Last year’s event was a great success with around 1,100 registered participants and many community teams. More than $30,000 was raised to help dent Achievement Council named Jacob Straus of Bothell High School and Erika Sun and Stuart Wang of Inglemoor High School Washington Scholars for Legislative District No. 1. Inglemoor’s Emily Sokol was named Washington Scholar-Alternate for Legislative District No. 45. The Washington Scholar and Alternate status do not provide a monetary award; however, the designation remains a prestigious recognition for some of the state’s most exemplary high school students and a valuable asset in securing other educational
fund NSF’s year-round programs and the Northshore Y’s Partners with Youth Campaign. This year, 1,500 participants are expected. “When we first started this, we had no idea what we were doing,” said Amy Young, organizer. “The heart at the beginning was to raise funds so we could develop programming for our kids with disabilities, but now it’s become much more. It’s a message to everyone, not just our disabled kids, that you can do it, you can reach past your limitations and achieve your goal.” Presented by Woodinville Pediatric Dentistry, the race takes place at Seattle Times Park’s North Creek in Bothell. This is the first year for the competitive one-mile race. Coordinated by Rich Bennett of the Northshore Y,
it replaces the 10K event from previous years. “The mile is an iconic distance and resonates with the avid runner,” Bennett said. “The challenge of the mile race is not the distance but the effort involved. It really pushes you to go hard.” This chip-timed race will feature five divisions for men and women. Space is limited in each division. “The best part about this event is seeing our community come together and knowing how much they care,” Young said. Participants and teams are encouraged to reach out to their communities to raise funds. Proceeds support NSF programming, such as inclusive and specialized camps, on-going education, and family support such as guest lectures. Funds also support the
Northshore Y’s Partners in Youth campaign, which enables children who otherwise would not have the opportunity to participate in programs that focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Young said her disabled son looks forward to the event every year. “My son loves being around people and it used to be hard for me to take him out in the community because people were not aware of how to act around him,” she said. “I feel that this is a safe event for us, for me to bring him out to a group of people who are there to learn how to act around him and are not out to judge me. My son’s face lights up so much when he crosses that finish line and is met with cheers.”

The Legends Tour, official Legends Tour of the LPGA, announced today it will postpone its annual tournament in Kenmore until 2015. The Legends Swing for the Cure tournament, originally scheduled for July 27-28, will not be held in 2014. “We hope to take the extra time to garner additional area support to create an even more successful and significant tournament in 2015,” said Jane Blalock, Legends Tour CEO. “The Seattle community prides itself on strong support for women’s sports and charitable causes and the LPGA legends look forward to being part of that tradition for years to come.” The Legends Swing for the Cure tournament was staged in 2012 and 2013 at Inglewood Golf Club. The event showcased home state favorite JoAnne Carner, a member of the LPGA and World Golf Halls of Fame, who grew up in nearby Kirkland.

make the welcome announcement. “We decided it’s high time our church embodies all of God’s creation, not just parts,” Berg said. “We do not think it is a sin to be LGBT; it is how those individuals were made. We believe it is more important to focus on how we treat each other.” Berg said he hopes this
will cause members of his community to feel safe and draw in other members that might not feel comfortable attending church. “Our focus is never on numbers, such as, how many people can we bring in? Our focus is on being faithful,” Berg said. Parents of LGTB children in Berg’s congregation have stepped forward and
expressed gratitude for the church’s stance. “They are relieved that their children are welcome and can come here and feel loved,” he said. “We really need to do away with any sort of shame that surrounds this issue. Jesus never said, ‘let’s love everyone but this person.’ He commanded us to love everybody.”

First Lutheran Church of Bothell wants the public to know they accept all people into their Evangelical congregation. The church sent out a statement of welcome for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities. The statement reads, “We welcome everyone, without exception and regardless of sex, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical and mental ability, age, or station in life. We recognize that each person is a unique creation of God and, through Grace, a child of God. Rev. Tor Kristian Berg, Pastor of First Lutheran
Church, sees this statement as an extension of the congregation’s core value of hospitality. “This congregation, since its founding in 1886, has been a place of welcome,” he said. “In our culture there are so few places for people of faith to encounter the grace of Jesus fully without being judged or maligned for who they are. We hope to live into this reality.” The statement led a group called ReconcilingWorks to give First Lutheran the Reconciling in Christ recognition. This means the congregation will be listed on a roster of congregations, organizations, and synods in the United States and Canada, which publicly welcome members of all

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx
