Locals advance in Best Communities competition BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com
TULALIP — Arlington and Darrington made the cut. After the two cities made the quarterfinals of the America’s Best
Communities competition last year, they’re opening this year by moving on to the semifinals. Ken Baldwin, general manager of Frontier Communications’ Everett branch, announced at the
Tulalip Resort Casino Jan. 13 that the DarringtonArlington team would be one of 15 teams nationwide to meet in Durham, N.C., April 26-27. This summit is set to winnow the teams down to eight, who
will receive $100,000 each and meet again next year to determine the contest’s three finalists. Out of 350 entrants, 50 were selected as quarterfinalists and awarded $50,000 each in seed money last

MARYSVILLE – A Homeland Security helicopter hovers above while several flash bangs explode. Police activate emergency lights and shout out warnings on loudspeakers. The helicopter crew notices someone go outside and throw a bag over a fence into some bushes. A man carrying a small safe is told to halt and lie down with his arms and feet spread eagle. A number of people are searched and put into a SWAT team vehicle. This is not an episode of “Cops,” but it is real, and it happened in Marysville just a few miles from the police station. The house is owned by Rainbow Love, 54, formerly known as Vivian Ellis. Last year she and others in the home were arrested on various drug charges on Jan. 29, Feb. 25 and March 12. Police have been waiting since then to face Love in a courtroom. But a decision on charges has been delayed for months. This case drastically shows how tough it is for police to shut down an alleged drug house, often because the court system is so far behind on cases that prosecutors only have time to focus on violent offenders.

Prosecution slow in local drug cases BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com
Jan. 29, 2015 Police reports obtained through a Marysville Globe public records request say: Officers served a search warrant at 3722 103rd St. NE with assistance from Marysville
MARYSVILLE – The main reason alleged drug dealers such as Rainbow Love are not prosecuted is because the court system in Snohomish County is so backed up. There are so many cases in the court system that prosecutors focus mainly on violent offenders, believing they are the ones society needs to put behind bars first. Drug dealers and other criminals just have to wait for their day in court. “There are no charges pending,” Tricia Stemler of the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office said. She noted that many of Love’s arrests occurred in 2015, so it could be some

time before they are looked at because the court system is so far behind. “It’s not urgent because it’s not violent,” Stemler said. That philosophy frustrates Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith. He said drugs are plaguing neighborhoods, and that if someone commits a crime, “We expect the rest of the system to do their jobs.” He said he can’t understand how the felonies can keep stacking up against Love without any prosecution taking place. He knows the courts are backed up, and violent offenders are the first who need to be incarcerated, but when there is a chronic problem something needs to happen. Smith said in most cases police look for “probable cause” in making an arrest for a crime, while prosecutors look at “beyond a reasonable doubt” and if they can get a inconviction. d $50 or more qualified purchases in a single transaction with your l other discounts and savings and not including the excluded purchases As f: Beer, Wine, Spirits, Tobacco a Products,result, Fuel, All Fluid Dairy ”We’re Items in the s), Prescription Items and Co-payments, Bus/commuter Passes, Fishing/ looking the Tickets, higher y Transfers, Ski Tickets, Amusement at Park Tickets,Event Lottery

threshold” to make sure the charges stick, he said of cases against Love. “We have good cases,” he said. “At some point they will look at them and prosecute.” Repeated attempts to contact Love and her lawyer by phone and email were unsuccessful. On Sept. 14 of last year, Deputy Prosecutor Lisa Paul said she will be looking at the crimes again to see if there is enough there to prosecute. “I am waiting for a few things to occur before I am ready to decide charges on Rainbow Love,” Paul said. On Oct. 13, she handed the files over to another prosecutor, Tim Geraghty. On Nov. 25, he said the office would decide on charges by the end of the week. About a month later he called to say it could still be some time before a decision would be made. “Vivian Ellis has taken advantage of the system for a number of years, whether it’s prostitution or drugs,” Smith said. “It’s a cancer within our city and society.

er and send them to the prosecutor.” Code enforcement Along with drug arrests, Love also has been cited numerous times for code enforcement violations. Officer Deryck McLeod said in code enforcement reports that Love has the title of reverend from the International Assembly of Spiritual Healers and Earth Stewards Congregation. She acquired a business license in 2005 as “Relax with Rainbow,” and later changed the business name to “The Light Body Temple,” and “The Mystic Center.” In 2007 it became “Mind and Body Healer” and in 2012 “Whole Earth Studio.” But since Oct. 1, 2014 she reportedly has not had a business license. McLeod said she would be a perfect candidate for Marysville’s new chronic nuisance ordinance, which would allow the city to put her in jail and seize her home. “That would get the message across” to other
“Healthy Main Street” committee for the DarringtonArlington team. “I am so excited that all the time planning events and making strategies for our towns is advancing to the next level,” Everett said. “We will be moving forward with even more confidence and our efforts will encourage growth for existing business. New businesses we are looking for will now have even stronger reasons to invest in Arlington and Darrington.” Baldwin praised Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring for what he didn’t do, which was submit his own city for the contest. By stepping aside, Baldwin believes Marysville gave Arlington and Darrington a better shot at winning. “They’re certainly the only team in this area that made it this far,” Baldwin said, adding that Washington State University and the Economic Alliance of Snohomish County have helped guide the Darrington-Arlington team through the process. “If you read their plans, they outline concise, measurable objectives that anyone can understand.” Arlington Mayor Barb Tolbert likewise credited her team’s advancements through the contest to their effective teamwork, which Darrington Mayor Dan Rankin expanded upon.
million, with $2 million for second place and $1 million for third. “Great communities don’t just happen,” said Baldwin, who noted that the contest’s financial prizes are intended to support the development of economic opportunities in small towns and rural communities within the 27 states served by Frontier. “These communities came together with common goals, but no real project manager, to create plans for revitalization. Their partnership has been inspiring.” Arlington and Darrington’s plan was launched in the wake of the 2014 Oso slide, and lays out a strategy for sustainable development that maintains the Stillaguamish Valley’s identity and quality of life. The Darrington-Arlington team identified five goals for the first round of competition; healthy main streets, natural resources, tourism development, broadband access and healthy youth. The past six months have seen private citizens, businesses and educators outlining tasks to accomplish those goals. Mark Everett, owner of Arlington Velo on Olympic Avenue, also chairs the

“There’s been no scrambling, only directed movement, always forward,” Rankin said. “Our valley has suffered so much, but we’ve shown the whole country what this little valley can do.” Tolbert added: “America’s Best Communities competition could not have appeared at a better time, as we emerge from the shock and sadness of the tragedy that struck our communities. To move to the next round will strengthen the foundation of relationships and resolve within our communities.” The Downtown Arlington Business Association found itself tasked with an errand that contributed to this cause over the weekend. On Jan. 9, DABA President Mike Britt received last-minute notice that he needed to film three videos of the community, in support of the contest. He and his volunteers were able to wrangle together groups at Aerospace Manufacturing Tech and Post Middle School that day, but needed the next day to film an additional segment in downtown Arlington, ultimately enlisting the aid of the Stilly Diner. “Congratulations, you’ve made it,” Baldwin said. “You have plenty more work to do, though.”

Earrings help others hear about murder victims
BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com
TULALIP — The earrings are beautifully crafted, but what they represent makes them difficult to look at. That was the consensus on the evening before the “Sing Our Rivers Red” traveling earring exhibition opened to the public at the Hibulb Cultural Center. The exhibit presents 1,181 single-sided earrings, each one representing a different Native American woman who’s been reported murdered or missing in the United States or Canada. “This helps us hear their voices,” Tulalip Tribal board member Theresa Sheldon said Jan. 8. Opening prayer drummer Jason Gobin agreed: “It’s powerful to see all these earrings because of all the hurt and anger they represent, but this is the reality of what’s happened.” Deborah Parker, former vice chairwoman of the Tulalip Tribes, is intimately familiar with this issue, as an advocate for the passage

Theresa Sheldon and Deborah Parker look at the display of earrings at the Hibulb center. of the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act in 2012, and as a survivor of sexual assault and abuse herself. “It’s hard to even talk about,” Parker said. “We might not always have the words, but we have to fight for those who cannot speak for themselves.”
Parker had joined U.S. Sens. Patty Murray, Barbara Boxer and Amy Klobuchar in calling for tribal justice officials to be allowed to bring non-Indians who commit crimes against women on tribal lands to justice. Before VAWA was passed with this provision, federal prosecutors declined
to prosecute a majority of sex abuse-related crimes in Indian country. “I’d wondered since I was a little girl why indigenous women didn’t receive the same protections as others,” said Parker, who recalled seeing native girls as young as 14 on inner-city streets. “I was told not to get involved
because that can hurt the victims of sex trafficking. I’d ask them if they wanted to come home with me, just for some pizza, but they couldn’t.” Parker cited native women’s significantly higher likelihood of committing suicide or being murdered, and asserted they shouldn’t be condemned for any drug or alcohol problems. “That shouldn’t matter, because these are still human lives,” Parker said. “These are still someone’s daughters, and as much as anyone, their families need closure. Many of them don’t know where their loved ones are.” Due to jurisdictional loopholes, Parker has heard many non-Indian prisoners tell each other that, if they rape a native woman on a tribal reservation, they can get away with it. It’s only recently that this has begun to change, as more such cases are finally heard and prosecuted. Citing the statistic that as many as one-third of indigenous women in North America are raped, Parker

urged natives and non-Indians alike to educate themselves and others. “When we ask what we’re going to do about this, it’s tempting to say, ‘I’m just one person. What can I do?’” Parker said. “You can talk about it, to your neighbors and relatives. You can keep speaking out about it, and teach your children to be respectful to each other. We can change this. We need to.” Returning to the earrings on display, Parker noted that they represent a mere fraction of the numbers of missing and murdered indigenous women in North America, with nearly 1,500 such cases recorded in Canada alone. The Tulalip Tribes are one of three tribal jurisdictions to pilot the implementation of VAWA provisions enabling the cross-jurisdictional pursuit of perpetrators with the aid of outside law enforcement agencies. The “Sing Our Rivers Red” exhibit will remain at the Hibulb Cultural Center through the end of the month.

Support school levies The Marysville Globe-The Arlington Times does not normally publish endorsements for recurring school levies. That is because we almost always support them. This is where local schools get their money from local taxpayers, the people who directly benefit from educating local students. We would only not endorse them if the school district was asking for a huge increase. Lakewood and Arlington school districts are not doing that, so we support their levies. However, we decided to write an endorsement this time because of possible confusion of voters. The state Supreme Court as ordered the state to fully fund education. Voters need to know that has not happened yet. Who knows if it ever will happen. Until it does, school districts need local funds for basic operations. We urge voters in Lakewood and Arlington to support their local levies Feb. 9.
Local tax levies important for schools We are fortunate to live in a country where every child, regardless of race, religion, creed, color, ancestry, national origin, gender or presence of any sensory, mental or physical ability, has access to a public education. I am thankful to live in a state that has the nation’s strongest language in its constitution relating to public education: “It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders, without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste or sex” - Washington State Constitution, Article IX. We are also fortunate to live in a community that consistently demonstrates its care and support for its greatest asset – its young people. Providing adequate funding to meet the needs of all children is an ongoing challenge, but so worth the investment at the federal, state and local levels. Our revenue comes primarily from three sources: Federal 5 percent, State 71 percent and Local 24 percent. As a school district, we are accountable for every dollar we receive to provide the best educational programs for our students. We take this job extremely seriously and know that you have entrusted us with our community’s most-precious resource – our children. You also expect the utmost care and stewardship of financial resources, and we are laserfocused on that responsibil-
ity. In addition to an annual audit by the state, we routinely monitor and inspect our practices. We are proud of our strong and stable financial condition. We have received commendations from our recent audits and were also recognized by the state for f inancial s t e w a rd ship. We know that we must demonstrate a strong McDuffy return on investment for every dollar spent and are proud of the progress we’ve made. Our team is working hard to provide exciting, engaging and innovative programs to meet the needs of all students we serve. Just this school year, we have added: •Full-time kindergarten in all elementary schools •Art specialists in all elementary schools •Student leadership through The Leader in Me program at Presidents Elementary •Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) project-based classes at Post Middle School and Weston High School •Manufacturing Program of Study at Arlington High School •Construction Geometry course at Arlington High School The local portion of our school funding will be coming to our voters on Feb.
9. It is the Educational Programs and Operations Levy (formerly known as the “Maintenance and Operations Levy”). This is a renewal of the expiring levy. Our local levy supports programs, staffing, technology, extra-curricular activities and safety/emergency preparedness, which includes our School Resource Officer. The estimated tax rate is $3.56 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. That is expected to remain stable over the four-year term of the levy and is four cents less than our current collection rate. For details on the upcoming levy, how your schools are funded, or how every dollar invested in public education has a great return on investment, please visit
our website at www.asd. wednet.edu. You are also invited to attend one of the following events: •Levy Information Community Meeting, Jan. 20 at 7 p.m., District Administration Office, 315 N.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Levy renewal should be ‘yes’
I will be voting “yes” on the Feb. 9 ballot for renewal of the Arlington School District Educational Programs and Operations levy. The following reasons are guiding my decision: This is a renewal of an expiring levy that provides 28 percent of the district’s general fund. The levy funds help pay for technology, teaching materials/ curriculum, academic support, transportation, Special Education and extra-curricular activities, such as athletics, arts and other educational activities. The levy funds also support the free, full time kindergarten and the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) educational programs in our schools. The tax rate will remain the same, estimated at $3.86 per $1,000 of assessed value. We cannot wait for our state legislature to get the full funding of Washington public schools figured out for our children. All of the children and young people in our community deserve a quality education as they are our future adult citizens, co-workers, leaders and four of them are my grandchildren. The Arlington community has always been a close-knit and caring place to live and to raise children.
I urge you to join me in making sure our children’s education is supported, and vote for Arlington schools Feb. 9. Kathy Engell Arlington
Schools deserve a ‘yes’ vote
Arlington Public Schools are one of the true gems of our wonderful, strong community. As such, our schools and the children they serve deserve the continued support of the Arlington community. On Feb. 9 we will have the opportunity to renew the expiring Educational Programs and Operations Levy, and I strongly urge all voters in Arlington to vote YES. This levy is critical to the continued success and hard work of our schools. It funds 28 percent of the district’s general fund, and the revenue it generates touches students directly in many ways (from curriculum and teaching materials to technology and transportation). Specifically, in our modern world, students need experience using the technology of the modern workforce. Levy funds allow this and thus support the employability of our graduates. Sports and the arts play important roles in keeping our commu-
nity vibrant and strong. Football games at John Larson stadium are part of the fabric of Arlington. Concerts at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center are part of what makes Arlington so wonderful. Levy funds are critical to supporting the extracurricular lives of our students and thus the Arlington community as a whole. Importantly, this is a renewal levy. The old levy is expiring. The tax rate has been set to remain the same. The cost to the individual taxpayer in this community will stay the same if the levy passes. Passage of this levy will not result in a tax increase. There has been much in the press recently about the duty of the state to fully fund K-12 education. And while the state Supreme Court has ruled that the state must act in this regard, the state legislature has not made plans to fully fund public education. When the state assumes this responsibility, local levies may be eliminated. This however, has not happened. Thus, the success of our schools remains in the hands of local communities, and levies remain the key to this success. Arlington is a town that has a unique sense of community. Arlington supports its citizens, and we take care of our own. Part of our commitment to community is our commitment
Dorn battles for school dollars
Minutes before Gov. Jay Inslee gave his State of the State address Tuesday, the leader of Washington’s public school system delivered a message of his own. Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn joined the procession of state elected officials to seats in the front of the chamber of the House of Representatives. Moments later Dorn stood up, placed a note on his chair that read “Reserved for kids and students” and walked out. The silent public protest was Dorn’s way of expressing his frustration with the governor and lawmakers for being nothing shy of derelict in their constitutional duty to amply fund Washington’s education system. “I’m disappointed that our elected officials aren’t taking this whole solution thing seriously,” he said. Students “should have a seat to hear what’s going on,” The state Supreme Court ruled in 2012 in the McCleary case that the means by which Washington pays for its public schools is
unconstitutional. Justices said the state needed to step up and cover the full cost of a basic education of elementary and secondary students, including the salaries of teachers. They also said the state needed to end school districts’ o v e r reliance Cornfield on local levies to operate. Justices set a 2018 deadline to comply and later demanded lawmakers turn in a plan for how they intended to get it all done. They haven’t turned one in, inciting the court to find lawmakers in contempt and impose a $100,000-a-day fine until a plan is delivered. A bipartisan group of lawmakers has crafted a bill aimed at satisfying the court’s demand and positioning the Legislature to act in 2017 on the sticky – and expensive – issue of replacing local tax levies
with state tax dollars. It’s the last big piece of the McCleary puzzle. But such a swap will cost billions of dollars every budget cycle and lawmakers are divided on how best to raise that money. “They don’t know how to pay for it. They will do a Michael Jackson moon walk to get away from that,” Dorn said. “There’s nothing I’ve seen so far that is going to get them out of contempt and meet the court deadline.” Inslee, who convened that McCleary work group, is endorsing the legislation. He expressed confidence in his address Tuesday that lawmakers will follow through in 2017. “We are on track,” Inslee said. “We’re not going to just fix a few potholes — we’re going to finish the job. That means actually financing these critical investments so our kids and grandkids get the education they deserve.” But Dorn is concerned Inslee’s push to give teachers a pay hike this year will boost the state’s costs, making it more difficult next
to the education of our children. Their success is dependent on the support of all of us. I urge you to vote yes to renew the Educational Programs and Operations Levy on Feb. 9. Jenny Taylor Arlington
Government could end hunger
Food bank helps, but government could end hunger The Arlington Food Bank does inspirational work. Thanks to generous partners like Safeway, great volunteers like Tori Anderson, and thoughtful ways to meet clients needs, the food bank saves several thousand families from hunger. (‘Arlington’s feeding younger, smaller families’, Dec. 26.) The question is how can so many be hungry in the world’s richest country? Fortunately, Congress just took positive action by making the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit permanent. These two tax credits keep 16 million Americans from falling into or deeper into poverty. Making the tax credits permanent took the voices of many citizens asking their members of Congress and senators to pass the legislation. Congress can take other actions to end hunger in our country, but
year to reach agreement. “What I’ve seen so far is the governor put out a budget that makes districts more dependent on levies which is what the Supreme Court said you should not do,” he said. “It makes the problem bigger.” Dorn is not seeking reelection but he’s so frustrated he’s contemplating an independent run for governor. Not, he insists, because it’s the political seat he’s long coveted.
we need to speak up to remind them. Full funding of the food stamp program would be helpful, but there needs to be more. Living wage jobs, universal access to post high school educational opportunities, and a fairer tax system would be a good start. So let’s join our voices and ask our government to end hunger once and for all. Willie Dickerson, Snohomish
Political leaders killing country
When we elected someone to Congress the idea is to represent the people. I believe our elected officials have lost all sight of their purpose for being in Congress. We did not elect them to support Obama, we elected them to support the people. We did not elect them to support a party, we elected them to support the people. I am so tired of after writing my elected officials to receive what has all appearance of being nothing more than a party-sanctioned and sterilized response. Our present political leaders have done more to kill this country than Lenin or Stalin ever could have accomplished. Robert Baize Arlington
Rather, he said, a campaign would provide a vehicle to present voters with a detailed approach to paying for public schools. And it might force Inslee and his Republican opponent, Bill Bryant, to respond with something more than nice rhetoric, he said. “I’d prefer the governor be a leader and lead,” Dorn said. “But I think I’m in a unique position to help the state do right by kids. If I don’t do this, I don’t think
anything is going to change. In fact it might get much worse.” If Dorn is governor, he’d not only have to show up at next year’s State of the State address, he’d be the one delivering it.

Families of M-P shooting victims seek $110 million Herald Writers
MARYSVILLE — Attorneys representing the families of the Marysville-Pilchuck High School shooting victims filed a claim Jan. 8 seeking up to $110 million. The claim, a precursor to a lawsuit, alleges that the Marysville School District could have prevented the Oct. 24, 2014, killings of four students. It also names as a defendant Raymond Fryberg, the father of the shooter and the owner of the gun that was used. A key part of the claim is based on discredited statements made by a former substitute teacher. “We met with the families, the most important thing for them was accountability, and they want to make sure no other school, no other family has to go through that heartbreak,” attorney Julie Kays said. Kays is representing the families along with attorney Lincoln Beauregard, both of Connelly Law Offices in Tacoma. They are preparing for a civil trial. The claim cites estimated damages between
$60 million and $110 million. “Money is never going to bring back their loved ones and repair their families, but we’re required to put a number, by law,” Kays said. Officials in the Marysville School District said it was too early to comment. The district has 60 days to respond. “While our hearts and prayers go out to the families who have suffered this tragedy, we were very disappointed to learn through our attorneys that a claim has been filed,” a district statement says. “We have not yet had the opportunity to thoroughly review the claim and thus cannot comment directly on it at this time.” A major component of the claim revolves around statements by Rosemary Cooper, a substitute teacher who insisted she was told about the shooting in advance by a student, and then warned the school district. When confronted by detectives, however, Cooper’s stories repeatedly changed. Detectives who looked into the details determined that Cooper received no advance warning and

confused. The claim also alleges that the district did not properly supervise Jaylen Fryberg, including the handling of discipline for a fight he was in earlier that month. The families represented in the claim are those of Andrew Fryberg, Zoe Galasso, Gia Soriano and Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, who were killed, and Nate Hatch, who survived a gunshot to the jaw. Jaylen Fryberg took his own life after killing his friends in a cafeteria at the high school. The families initially were represented by Seattle attorney Ann Deutscher. Deutscher asked the Tacoma law firm to take over the case, but she still is part of the litigation, Kays said. In October, Deutscher held a press conference about her quest for public records from the district. The press conference, suggesting the district was hiding something, was timed to coincide with the one-year mark since the shootings, when several community healing events were taking place. Raymond Fryberg, 42, was
sentenced Jan. 11 in U.S. District Court in Seattle to two years in federal prison. Fryberg expressed sorrow at his sentencing. Fryberg told U.S. District Judge James Robart that he doesn’t “condone any of the things my son did. It’s a tragedy.” A federal jury in September convicted Fryberg of six counts of illegal firearm possession. He was the subject of a 2002 domestic-violence protection order in Tulalip Tribal Court that forbade him from owning guns. An investigation after the Oct. 24, 2014, shootings found the elder Fryberg had repeatedly filled out federal forms while buying 10 different guns and never once answered truthfully that he was disqualified from making such purchases. On Monday, a letter was read to Robart from Nate’s mother, Denise Hatch. She told the court that in the 15 months since the shootings Raymond Fryberg had never apologized, and that lack of apology had divided the community.

that the teen she claimed tipped her off was actually trying to apologize for classmates who were making fun of the sub by sharing altered photos of her on their smart phones. Even so, Kays maintains the district knew violence was possible and “failed to take precautions to protect kids from this tragedy. A lawsuit is designed to search for the truth and ferret out who knew what and when they knew it.” Cooper’s claims are part of that “knowledge and notice,” she said. The claim quotes heavily from part of Cooper’s statements to police but does not mention her later recantation. That happened before she was contacted by TV news reporters, at which point she claimed she felt pressured by police to change her story. She also said that detectives had yelled at her in interviews. That prompted police to release audio tapes of their conversations with Cooper. There was no yelling or abuse on the recordings, just her acknowledgement that she may have been

Learning Labs concern Arlington City Council BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com
Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo
Debora Nelson
ARLINGTON — The Arlington City Council came to a consensus on its new Mayor Pro Tem and expressed reservations about a proposed Learning Lab project. During their Jan. 11 workshop, council members Debora Nelson and Chris Raezer wasted no time in voicing their reservations regarding the Learning Labs that Jan Link, director of Academic Link Outreach, proposed Jan. 4. The Learning Labs would
be established on site in Snohomish County middle and junior high schools, with a director and volunteers working in each school to engage students and teachers, and require parent and/or guardian involvement in student success. Link cited the support of state legislators such as Rep. Mike Sells and Sen. Steve Hobbs for the program, and asserted that such programs represent a “last chance” to lift up struggling students before high school. Raezer expressed surprise that Link presented the pro-
posal to the council rather than the Arlington School Board, while Nelson reported that she’d spoken with a teachers in another city who was “not comfortable” with the proposal. “This is a private business bringing this proposal to us, rather than the school district,” Nelson said. “Besides, the legislature has a lot to do, in terms of passing funding for basic education. I’m not willing to sign off on this.” Fellow council member Jan Schuette agreed with Nelson, citing what she’d heard from three people at
two other schools districts about the Learning Labs. “Both of those districts already have similar programs to work with at-risk kids, and the Learning Labs are more expensive than what they’re spending,” said Schuette, who noted that funding for the Learning Labs would be provided through the Department of Commerce at $60,000 per school, per year. “And the Department of Commerce has indicated they don’t have that kind of money. I’d table this until we hear from the school district.” Prior to this issue, Raezer

suggested Nelson as his successor as Mayor Pro Tem. Raezer served as Mayor Pro Tem from 2014-15, and Nelson is the next-most senior council member who hasn’t yet served in the role. Schuette seconded Raezer, and elaborated on “the enormous amount of time Debora has devoted to this city,” including her role on the Puget Sound Regional Council and her selection of Snohomish County’s representative for an upcoming national training academy. The Mayor Pro Tem will be officially selected Jan. 19.
Civic groups share ideas with Marysville School District BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com
MARYSVILLE – Ideas aplenty were shared at the Marysville School District’s first community outreach meeting Jan. 11, from teaching life skills and offering more vocational classes and electives to working more with community volunteers. The district will have its next outreach meeting in council chambers with students Jan. 19 at 3 p.m. At the meeting with Civic Groups Monday, Robyn Warren of the Marysville morning Rotary talked about the need for more vocational offerings in the MSD so students can find what they love in life. “The more exposure they have the easier to find their way,” she said.
Athletic director Greg Erickson added, “We need pipefitters.” Linda Clay of Soroptimists agreed, as did Kim Reynolds of Marysville Together Coalition. “More electives are needed,” Clay said. “They need to learn the joy of learning. Passions vary.” Reynolds said life skills, such as home economics, need to be taught, along with more community service. “Students need personal experiences to find their niche, their skill set,” she said. Greg Canahan of the Marysville Area Pastors Association said the MSD should partner more with volunteers from groups all over town. Tom King of the Kiwanis said groups used to help with maintenance at schools all the time. “We painted everything with
community volunteers,” King said. Don Whitfield of the Marysville Noon Rotary said, “People are willing to give time and money to help maintain schools.” Reynolds said volunteers also would tutor students after school. She also said as part of the Marysville-Pilchuck Parent Teacher Student Association they are seeking direction. “We have money, but don’t know the best way to use it,” she said. Erickson said there needs to be more respect for the five-day school day. “It’s getting sloppy. We need more seat time,” he said. Erickson also spoke up in favor of health. Obesity is on the rise, yet schools are always “taking time away from fitness.” As for what the district already
is doing well, Canahan said it is very welcoming and transparent, while Whitfield said it sincerely wants input from the community. Erickson said people are willing to work together, and Clay said it’s a breath of fresh air. Reynolds likes the technology and King the students of the month. “It’s unbelievable what they do,” King said. “Just when things tip south these kids tip the scale” the other direction. Participants also talked about: •Pushing not just four-year colleges, but also two-year tech schools. •Enlarging the backpack program. •Teaching computer code as a language •Fixing up Asbury Field. •Rewarding teachers for thinking out of the box.
•Passing construction bonds. In conclusion, school board director Bruce Larsen said some of the ideas have been brought up before, but “a lot of it is new stuff, and we like to hear it.” Chris Nation said he appreciated everyone’s candor. “We want to hear the truth. We can’t fix what we don’t know,” Nation said. Superintendent Becky Berg also appreciated the event. “The leaders offered great insights, and ideas about what they most appreciated about our school district, and ideas for improvement,” she said. “It was clear that each person in the room had the Marysville and Tulalip communities at top of mind - and that all were deeply committed to the success of all of our children.”

Volunteer on MLK Day MARYSVILLE – Instead of taking a day off, many students in Marysville will be taking a day “on” to help others in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day Jan. 18. About 250 students
countywide are expected to work on this day of service. Teen volunteers can choose from different hands-on projects, including cleaning and organizing at adult with special needs centers with Quilceda Community Services; park restoration projects
with Marysville Parks and Recreation and various projects at animal centers such as All Breed Equine Rez-Q. Marysville Food Bank is hosting projects as well. Volunteers will be led by Senior Corps-RSVP and other adult volunteers. Marking its seventh year
in Snohomish County, the MLK Day of Service brings high school students and community volunteers together to serve the most vulnerable members of the community, transforming King’s life mission and teachings into community service.
“High school students are inspired by Dr. King’s lessons of compassion and community-building,” said Dennis G. Smith, president of United Way. “This national day of service provides a way to put those ideals into action.” Organizations like school
clubs, athletic teams and friends who want to volunteer together are encouraged to register as a group. Teens can also register individually. If you’re ages 14-19, register online at www.uwsc. org/mlkday.php. Adult volunteers can contact Paulette Jacobson at 425-374-6311.

Computer repair gets some excited for school BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com
TULALIP – In the old days, dads and their kids often tinkered together in a garage or shop. “You don’t see that much anymore,” said Paul LaGrange, who teaches in the computer repair lab at Arts and Tech High School in Marysville. “For many, they’re holding a tool for the first time. It’s empowering.” The 35 class members will be having an open house at the school Jan. 16 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. About 50 computers that they have repaired will be sold for about $50 each. Money made will go to buy parts for future repairs. The class started five years ago when some computers were donated to the school. LaGrange, who is involved in credit retrieval, offered a summer class to fix the computers, which were then donated to children in Guyana. Kids enjoyed the experience so much they asked LaGrange if it could
become a class, and he made it happen. The first class started with six students but grew to 25 by the end of the year, and has grown from there. LaGrange said about 500 computers have been repaired for free. “It’s our service program,” he said, adding he thinks it’s the “only one of its kind in the state.” In the computer lab, LaGrange said he wants to create lifelong learners. That means he helps students develop a curiosity to find answers to questions on their own. “Google it,” is what supersenior Blake Horenstein tells underclassmen. “That’s how I learned.” LaGrange added: “There’s no textbook for what they’re doing here. They have to dig down and teach themselves.” Actually, they do get guidance from LaGrange, Horenstein and one other. But it’s mostly on where to look for answers. That’s the
way it’s done in the lab. “I’m going to miss this place after four years,” Horenstein said. Horenstein, who aspires to be a network architect, became interest in computers when he was given an Amiga when he was 4. “I didn’t like it because I couldn’t do much with it” because it didn’t have internet access, he said, adding he took it apart and has been interested ever since. Horenstein, who also is involved in robotics, said he likes mechanics because it is logical. “There’s no randomness that will throw anything off,” he said, adding if it’s done right it will work guaranteed. Horenstein said his favorite part about the class is that students learn on their own. He said students might be more interested in other classes if they were taught the same way. “You want to learn and understand it for yourself,” he said.

Senior Blake Horenstein helps other students in a class where they really do teach themselves. Another senior, Xavier Melton, has learned so much he is planning to open a video gaming business by spring with two of his cousins. They have a game involving a plane going through burning buildings that they hope to have soon on Xbox and mobile platforms.
Freshman Josh Myers and sophomore David Pugh were sitting at a flight simulator recently donated to the school. They were excited to say that the class is going to repair some very old computers and set up something like an old video arcade at the school.
Unlike some school districts, LaGrange said Marysville is trying to provide multiple areas where students can learn skills that will help them get jobs, rather than only being focused on sending kids to college. “We’re helping them find their niche,” he said.

ductive members of society who do the right thing and give back to the community. When I see what other people don’t have, it makes me feel more fortunate.” Sewell hopes this sentiment is shared by all the food bank’s volunteers, but especially the younger ones.
“We all complained about things when we were kids, but when they’re able to look around here, these kids say, hey, my life’s not so bad,” Sewell said. “We’re pretty lucky.” Sewell praised the Marysville community for its generosity during the
11
holidays but admitted that the food bank is not foremost on a lot of folks’ minds as weather gets warmer. “Between the holidays and the Letter Carriers Food Drive in May, our pickings can get pretty slim, so we appreciate the attention,” Sewell said.

MARYSVILLE — JoAnn Sewell admits that she’s not very tall. So when nine members of the Marysville Getchell High School basketball team helped at the food bank Saturday, she was ecstatic. “The fact that they were tall kids came in especially handy,” the volunteer coordinator of the Marysville Food Bank said. “I’m a short person so it was like having my own crew of stepladders to reach things.” The team donated time Jan. 9 to stock shelves and managed to wrap up their
work in two hours, an hour earlier than they’d expected. Team captains junior Collin Montez and senior Cameron Burns credited Nicole Roskelley, the mother of one of their teammates, with suggesting the idea, and coach Corby Schuh noted that he’d left it open to the food bank to contact the team again, if they needed more work done. “Saturday mornings are always good, because we can get in a couple of hours of practice before we come by,” said Schuh, who admitted that it’s a bit more difficult for his players to show up at 3 p.m.
on Tuesdays, which is when the food bank really needs volunteers. “It’s a bit selfish because I’m always looking for activities we can engage in off the court, so we can hang out as a team, but this also fosters problem-solving skills and a good work ethic, both on and off the court.” Burns agreed that “Coach wants us to promote a positive image of the team, but he also wants us to be pro-

3rd time was the charm for Tulalip’s Jones BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com
TULALIP — Three’s the charm for Tulalip senior Adiyah Jones. Jones dominates the post position for the Tulalip Heritage girls basketball team, which is reaping the benefit of a 12-0 season with her presence. She scored 22 points as a gamehigh in the Hawks 63-10 win against Orcas Christian Jan. 11. As a result she is the Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Athlete of the Week. “The main thing with these games is knowing how do we get better,” Jones said. She stands five-foot-11 and takes full advantage of her height and post moves under the rim. She averages 25 points a game and 15 rebounds. “She’s a really good offensive player,” coach Bubba Fryberg said. “You better put two girls on her, if you want to guard her.” But she’s a great passer as well and will find an open

girl if that happens, Fryberg added. She is such a good player that coaches actually gear up and push her in practice, Fryberg said. “Since I started, I knew I was going to be a post player,” Jones said.
Outside of her post skills, she wants to get faster, and improve her shooting and dribbling. Her goal is to take the team to state. Jones was a cheerleader up until she entered Totem Middle School as a sixth-
grader. She tried out for basketball, but her passion for it wouldn’t start until she was cut, and cut again until finally making the eighthgrade team. “I wanted to show the coach that I can play bas-
ketball,” she said. Jones said after her initial cut, she started attending more basketball games and practiced her skills in the post practicing, one-onone with her dad and at the Tulalip Boys and Girls Club. “All the hard work she’s putting in has come out,” Fryberg said. Last season, Tulalip only won two games, and that was because Adiyah and her
sister, Aliyah, moved to La Conner with their parents. Fryberg is happy to have them back. Jones wants to continue basketball at Edmonds or Everett community college, eventually transferring to a four-year school. She wants to become a drug-and-alcohol dependency counselor. “She’s up to any challenge you throw at her,” Fryberg said.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck boys basketball team grinded out a 3A North League game with crosstown rival Marysville Getchell Jan. 12, in which the Tomahawks prevailed 49-46. “A lot of credit for the Getchell Chargers — they brought it,” M-P coach Bary Gould said. “But then again our guys ended up prevailing and that’s the perseverance and resiliency that we try to preach.” M-P was ahead but only by 27-24 at halftime. MG was always hot on M-P’s heel, but the Tomahawks defense helped keep the lead, Gould said. “We put some pressure on them in third quarter, and they started to turn the ball over a little bit, and we were able to score,” Gould said. M-P’s Josh Bevan led M-P with 12 points, and Collin Montez of MG led with 16. M-P’s record
improved to 3-8, and MG’s fell to 6-6. M-P will play at Oak Harbor Jan. 19 at 7:15 p.m., and MG hosts Stanwood Jan 19 at 7:15 p.m. ARLINGTON — The Arlington boys basketball team defeated Oak Harbor 60-58 Jan. 12 in a 3A North League game. Arlington’s Drew Bryson led with 16 points and teammates Aaron Carslon and Brennon Wiersman added 12 points apiece. Arlington improved its record Arlington plays at Everett Jan. 19. TULALIP — Adiyah Jones scored a game-high 22 points, and teammate Aliyah Jones added 15 to take the Tulalip girls basketball to a 63-10 win over Orcas Christian Jan. 11. Adihya Jones again led with 20 points in Tulalip’s win over Grace Academy Jan. 13.

New M’ville council president wants fireworks compromise BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com
MARYSVILLE – Soon after the normally softspoken Kamille Norton became “Madam President,” she made a fiery speech about the Marysville City Council’s effort to ban fireworks. “I won’t vote for it,” she said. “I’ve listened to the process and want what’s best for the community.” She added that it’s unfortunate that the majority of people who use fireworks in the city are responsible and would be punished for the
reckless actions of a few. “I find it sadly ironic that something that brings neighbors together to celebrate freedom and the birth of this nation is being taken away,” Norton said. In the end, the council decided to delay a vote on the issue until Jan. 25. Members wanted more time to review the proposed ban. Also, Councilman Jeff Vaughan, who previously has objected to a ban, was away on business. Youth pastor Brendan Hart of the Mountain View Assembly of God Church in
Marysville was among the few others who also spoke against a ban. He said selling fireworks is their No. 1 fundraiser, raising about half of the youth group’s $16,000 budget. “It’s crucial,” he said, adding the money helps sends kids on mission trips. Hart said the fireworks stands are a safe alternative to buying at Boom City on the Tulalip Reservation, where illegal fireworks are sold. “We’re the family friendly place,” Hart said. “I’d hate to
see it go.” But the evening belonged to Norton, who earlier was voted council president, replacing Vaughan, whose term had expired. Councilman Michael Stevens joked, calling her “Madam President.” Norton said the city faces a unique challenge, being so close to Boom City . “People will just head over there to buy, losing money for community nonprofits,” Norton said. She added that she doubts a ban would stop the use of illegal fireworks. “Lawbreakers are not going to stop breaking the
law with this ban,” she said. Norton went on to say that she could be convinced to approve a partial ban. “A full ban would be the easy way, but we represent the whole community. It’s winner take all, but it doesn’t have to be,” she said. Norton was referring to an advisory vote on the November ballot last year. Voters favored a ban 59.25 percent to 40.75 percent. She also said the number of days fireworks could be sold could be limited more, to address people’s concerns that too many fireworks are shot off other than the legal days of July 4 and Dec. 31.

Annette K. Hunter, 76 years old of Marysville, WA passed away peacefully on Friday, January 8th, 2016 surrounded by her loving family. Annette was born on Sept. 6th, 1939 to Henry and Leona Soderberg in Seattle Wa. She graduated from Edmonds High School and then attended the University of Washington. Annette met the love of her life LeRoy in 1957 at a school dance at Edmonds High School following the Edmonds-Marysville football game, where he asked her to dance and the rest is history. They married on Friday, August 19th, 1960 at the Greenlake Methodist Church in Seattle Wa. Annette and LeRoy resided in Marysville, where they raised their two children Scott and Stacey. She worked for the Marysville School District, starting at Pinewood Elementary and then spending most of her years as the Secretary for the Director of Special Education, retiring after more than 26 years
of service. Annette had a special place in her heart for the special education children and their teachers. She knew Special Education inside and out, keeping on top of everything and kept the department running. Annette had a contagious laugh. She lit up every room she walked into with love, laughter, and her quick wit. Annette and LeRoy loved to attend the Husky football games and are Seattle Seahawk season ticket holders from the first year in the Kingdome to present. Annette had a beautiful singing voice and raised her family surrounded with music. She was a very talented lady, she loved to craft, tole paint, play cards, cook, sew, garden, snowmobile, and spend time with her husband and family at their vacation home near Lake Wenatchee. Annette was a very loving wife, mother, and grandmother, supporting them with all of their school, sporting, and extracurricular activities, including being a Girl Scout leader and involved with Marysville Little League. She loved to watch her grandsons play baseball and football, traveling to all of their events. Everyone she came in contact with loved her. She was called mom,
grandma, and gma by all. We were always told by others that they wished they had a mom and grandmother like her, and always she treated everyone like her own family. She is survived by her loving husband, LeRoy of 55 years; her son, Scott Hunter (Patricia Gonzales); daughter, Stacey (Donald) Nickell; 12 grandchildren, Patrick, Jakob (Nicole), Ryan, Andrew, Joseph, Megan, Lukas, Kelsey, Austin, Bennet, Caden, and AnaSofia; and one great granddaughter Madyson; her sister, Joyce Johnson; many extended family members and close friends. A celebration of life will be held from 12 - 4 pm on Saturday, January 16th, 2016 at Stacey and Don’s home. Please bring your love, laughter, and stories to share because she was all about a good time! A private family graveside service will be held per her request. A special thank you to all the staff at the Smokey Point Kidney Center for their loving support and to all the friends she made there. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her name to the Puget Sound Kidney Center. 1515012
the leadership students of the Stillaguamish Valley Learning Center have studied how he acted as a leader. Four of the leadership students presented their findings to the Arlington School Board Jan. 11, characterizing King’s leadership style as both collaborative and directive. “He would take other people’s ideas and put them into his own words,� junior Piper Lee said. “He would lead marches and show others the way, but he made sure other people’s voices were heard.� Sophomore Andrew “Roo� Strom added: “Leading rallies is obviously a very directive effort, but it was also collaborative in the sense that he was involved in the movement on a hands-on level.� Lee and Strom were joined by sophomores Danielle Rodriguez and Tessa Bartlett in reciting a number of King’s quotes, while Strom answered most of the board members’ questions. Strom explained that he’d studied the leadership styles of not only King, but also Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin, which prompted laughter from the crowd when he admitted this as an unusual combination of historical figures to be grouped together. “We’ve learned a lot about how King conducted himself, in the way he spoke in public,� Strom said. “He spoke clearly and confidently, in statements that were well thought-out. We’ve tried to do the same.�
The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe
Feb. 25, 2015 Police reports say: The Marysville police Pro-Act and SWAT teams served a narcotics search warrant at 6 a.m. after first meeting for a briefing at 3 a.m. The warrant was obtained after a controlled buy from Love. An officer saw at least five cars come and go prior to the drug bust. Several flash bangs went off, patrol cars pulled in with emergency lights activated and announcements
were broadcast over the P.A. Some people came out of the house and an officer ordered them to stop and cover their eyes with their hands. Two others were told to drop to their knees and crawl to the driveway. Police received information that Love was cutting up heroin, and she placed the drugs and money into a small black bag. They found scissors on her bed with a large amount of suspected heroin on them. In another room they found two shotguns, pills, drug paraphernalia and suspected heroin. Love denied any wrongdoing. “Rainbow told me she was working on getting the drug users out of her house,” an officer says in one report. He told Love he knew she was accepting EBT cards in exchange for drugs. She denied that, saying she had just found them around the house. An officer later found that some of the cards were stolen, others lost or deactivated. All belonged to homeless people. The officer said at no time has Love been a DSHS client or received benefits so she should not possess any EBT cards. One suspect said he had exchanged shotguns for drugs. He also said he hadn’t sold drugs for Love in two weeks. He said the flash bangs woke him up, and that he had heard Love say, “They can’t charge me with it if they find it outside.” An officer used binocu-
lars from a deck to search the area. Another officer used a machete to cut a path through blackberry bushes. They found a bag about 30 yards from Love’s bedroom window. Even though it had been raining the bag was dry. Inside was $3,368, a digital scale, four bags of white crystal and two bags of a brown tar substance. Love was booked for possession of a controlled substance with the intent to deliver, unlawful use of a building for drug purposes and possession of drug paraphernalia. Police asked for a high bail. The reasoning: she had been arrested on similar charges Jan. 29 and was released Jan. 31. Confidential sources had told police she had started selling drugs again immediately. “Rainbow Love has been a nuisance to the Marysville community for several years,” the report says. One officer said he had been involved in three search warrants at her home in the previous year. The first one he assisted Seattle police in an undercover prostitution sting. “Rainbow was running a prostitution business from her home, as well as other locations,” the report says. The second one was Jan. 29, when she was found with 245 grams of heroin and 183 grams of meth. There were 18 people in the house. The third time was Feb. 25, when 10 people were in the house.
“Rainbow is a major contributor to the drug problem in the community,” the report concludes. At the Marysville jail, an officer did a strip search on the three arrested women. She asked Love what it cost her to bail out the previous month. Love told her $1,000. “I then stated that she probably could make that amount of money in just a few hours based on the allegations of what she was charged with. At that point she got somewhat angry with me and did not want to chat anymore,” the report says. March 12, 2015 Police reports say: The Marysville Police NITE Team went to a “problem house in the city of Marysville.” There had been neighborhood complaints about drug activity, and they were looking for two suspects wanted in a stabbing at the residence in January. The house is a known drug/flop house, and in a previous visit a stolen handgun was recovered. They saw a blue Honda Civic with the license plate RAINBOW. On the passenger side an officer saw a bag on the floorboard with a glass smoking device inside. In a brown purse white crystal was found. They also
17
found a small plastic container with black tar residue in it, a plastic bag with brown powdery substance, a digital scale and more. Love was cited for possession with intent to sell. Another officer said in his report: “Rainbow started freaking out. She kept screaming and charging back towards me. She was yelling, ‘Officer, I didn’t do anything.’” The officer kept telling her to get back, and she would, only to charge back at him again. “I eventually yelled at her to stay back or I would take her to jail,” the report says. Other arrests Other police reports say Love previously was arrested in May of 2009, accused of running several King County brothels. She denied the accusation, saying her “work is spiritual in nature and that’s what the men are seeking,” probable cause papers say. Love was arrested at her Marysville home and held under investigation of promoting prostitution and money laundering. Investigators said a tip from an ex-employee triggered a 10-month probe into Love’s three businesses - Sacred Temple in Seattle’s Eastlake, Moon Temple in SEE COPS, PAGE 18

SWAT. A man exited a rear second-story bedroom sliding glass door carrying a safe, which he dropped on the back deck. Thirteen people were lying prone in the front yard, including Love. An officer said she was under arrest for selling drugs. He also said he knows she’s a heroin user. “She became upset that I would accuse her of such a thing and adamantly denied it,” the report says. Asked if there were any drugs inside, she replied, “Not that I’m aware of.” Asked if there were guns, she said, “I have no guns, but I’ve seen guns in my house.” The report says, “She told me all the people at her house were people who were trying to quit heroin. She told me she was trying to help them all.” One suspect said Love told him to toss the safe so he did. Inside was $1,460, an ounce of heroin and drug paraphernalia. “I advised Rainbow she was going to be charged with possession of a controlled substance, and she began to freak out,” the report says. Searching Love’s bedroom, police found: several bags of marijuana, 15 bags of white crystal meth, a bag of white powder believed to be cocaine, and a bag of mushrooms that were inside a safe. On the kitchen table, police found a notebook used as a drug ledger containing “meticulous notes dating from November.” The price list went from $80 for a gram to $1,200 for an ounce. In other rooms police found crystal meth, tooters and “drug paraphernalia inside the toilet that someone appeared to have attempted to flush.” Police found other evidence thanks to a video taken from a Homeland Security helicopter. Someone had walked across the driveway and thrown a black bag into some blackberry bushes. One suspect said Love was tipped off that police were coming. Someone on their way to the home to purchase drugs saw police and called to warn Love. Police found the bag, containing white crystal meth, heroin and $280. “Rainbow not only dealt drugs from her house, but allowed people to use drugs throughout it,” the report says. Another officer said
police tried to alter their route to avoid being spotted. The helicopter crew was advising there was a lot of movement at the location. Police made commands from the public address system, and people started coming out of the house, some with hands in the air. More people started coming out and laid down in the front yard. All were detained and patted down for weapons. Another officer said he put up a ladder on the deck and saw a man exiting the sliding glass door carrying a black box. He was ordered to drop the box and put his hands in the air. He dropped the box, turned around with a surprised look on his face and then ran back inside. When ordered to come back out with his hands up, he did. K9 Katie, a 9-year-old black lab, scratched aggressively at the front passenger side door seam of a vehicle, indicating she had found narcotics there, too.

COPS FROM Page 17 Seattle’s Greenwood and Moon Temple in Kirkland. The tipster complained that she was fired after refusing her manager’s request that she masturbate clients, charging documents say. Undercover detectives were offered and agreed to sexual acts in exchange for $150, the document says. A female undercover detective applied for a job at 10018 Greenwood Ave. N. Love said the shop’s male clients expect to be sexually satisfied in exchange for $150, and that employees were “expected to touch every part of the customer’s body in the session,” papers say. Love said her employees kept $100 of the fee, while $40 went to the house and the remaining $10 to the receptionist. Love admitted some of her employees “may do more than a healing session with the clients,” the statement says. She added “what they do with the men is their business.” She listed her annual income at roughly $300,000. The mother of three, if convicted, could have spent up to 10 years in prison, according to the case in King County Superior

Court. On, Feb. 2, 2010, Love was charged with three counts of second-degree promoting prostitution and attempting to promote prostitution. There are no court files available following up on that case. Family problems Love isn’t the only one her family with legal issues. Her son has been arrested numerous times. Police reports say: He was arrested Feb. 7, 2015, for use of firearms by a minor. He was in a car with friends when it was pulled over for a traffic violation. The officer spotted drug paraphernalia. A semiautomatic handgun also was seen on the floor. Some in the car said Ellis threw it into the backseat and said to hide it. “So, not wanting to touch a gun that wasn’t mine I left it sitting where he had thrown it,” someone in the car said. Love drove by and pleaded with police not to tow her truck, to no avail. Her son also was arrested June 11, 2010, for minor in possession. Police went to Pinewood Elementary School where he was said to have been drinking and in possession of a knife. He also was arrested March 17, 2010, for sec-
ond-degree malicious mischief for tagging a number of trailers at Quil Ceda Recycling. Cost to repaint and repair the damage was $1,200. He reportedly did it as part of the Wreckin’ Crew gang. “I wish I could take it all back. I’m done with this stuff,” the son wrote in court papers. He pleaded guilty, was fined and put on probation. Police papers say on April 5, 2012, Love’s then 14-yearold daughter was left alone. Court papers say Love told police she has two businesses in Seattle and sometimes stays the night there. The daughter stated her mother sometimes does not come home at night but that she can take care of herself. Police found empty alcohol bottles and beer cans in her room, and Love said it was OK for her to have them. Information was forwarded to Children’s Protective Services, even though Love said she already had a case worker.
as of yet by the county prosecutor’s office. •Love was arrested on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance, posted $10,000 bail. •She was also arrested on suspicion of possession of controlled substance and unlawful use of a building. •Love was arrested on suspicion of a controlled substance, a felony. She posted $100,000 bail. •In the fourth case, also for suspicion of a controlled substance, she posted $5,000 bail.

DRUGS FROM Page 2 violators, McLeod said, adding if the city doesn’t prosecute, “We’re part of the problem.” Of Love, McLeod said the system “will catch up to her two or three years from now.” But if the city doesn’t act before then, “We’re responding not preventing.” McLeod said Love qualifies as a chronic nuisance because: •He has been after her for over a year to get a business license, failing to respond, and been cited and sent to collections. •On May 28, 2014, Love was arrested by Seattle police for being a proprietor in a house of ill repute (reportedly a madam for prostitution), police papers say. She was booked into the King County Jail. •During a Jan. 29, 2015 drug bust, McLeod noted multiple bags of trash strewn around the residence, creating not only an eyesore for neighbors, but also a health hazard. He noted in a nearby wetland violations of trash and debris, along with trees cut down. •During a Feb. 25, 2015 drug bust, he noted the situation in the wetland was even worse.
“Based on the three search warrants served within a twelve-month period, two of which were drug related; the wetlands violations; and the unwillingness of her to obtain the required business license I feel that this residence qualifies as a Chronic Nuisance Property,” McLeod says in a report. He has been at odds with City Attorney Jon Walker on the issue. Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said Walker looked at using the chronic nuisance policy against Love but decided against it. “We would be looking at a costly court battle if it’s not done right,” Nehring said. Walker said the justice system has a lot of tools that could be used in cases like Love’s. “We have to analyze everything that’s going on and find out what’s viable.” Walker said something may look good, but if you look at it from another vantage point it might not look as good. “The prosecutor has to decide, ‘Can I prove this case?’ ” he said. The mayor said aggressive police action has made a dent in some of Love’s alleged criminal activity. “We’ve taken her down a few times,” he said. “We will do everything we can with the police to execute justice.”

ARLINGTON – A family’s baptismal gown will be used for the 28th time in 115 years in late April. But it was most-recently used Jan. 10 when Kinley Jennifer Bumgarner was baptized at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Arlington. The christening gown was first worn in San Francisco during the 1900 baptism of Kinley’s great-great grandfather, William E. Franklin. During the 1920s-‘30s Franklin and his wife, Mary, baptized three children in the gown, including Kinley’s great grandma Bobbie A. McCann of Stanwood. Bobbie and her husband, Kenneth, baptized their four kids, including Kinley’s grandfather, John W. McCann of Stanwood, in 1954. McCann and his wife, Jennifer, baptized their four children, including Kinley’s mom, Jamie Leigh Bumgarner, in 1979. “We are very proud of this great family tradition

tage,” McCann said. “Our family is very close, and we look forward to passing this cherished 115-yearold christening gown to the next generation of family caretakers.” Kinley is also special to the family in another way. Her grandmother, Jennifer, got to deliver Kinley when she was born Sept. 6, 2015, at Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington to parents Russell and Jamie Bumgarner of Stanwood. Jennifer has worked for 28 years as a labor and delivery registered nurse at the hospital. She’s delivered thousands of babies. “Delivering newborns is always special,” she said. “But to deliver your own grandchild was truly a very special blessing.” McCann, the caretaker of the gown, keeps it in a special case, but he is thinking of preserving it in an airtight container to slow its deterioration. “The gown is showing some antique colorization,” he said. McCann said the family is proud of its faith and tradition. “It’s impressive. It’s a connection,” he said. “The priest said Sunday after the baptism that Kinley’s greatgreat grandfather wore it there was a gasp in the church.”
