The problem with finding these perps is that the incident occurred over three weeks ago, and the video was just released this week. The thugs have had ample time to move on to another city--maybe yours or mine.

In the videotaped incident where the cops subdued a black teenager in CA, the tapes were televised immediately and ad nauseum.

One of the issues here is the duplicity of the media regarding such incidents, and the political correctness of police departments such as the one in Seattle. For fear of profiling, they do not give out accurate descriptions of persons involved in such assaults. This handicaps the general public in trying to avoid such persons and the places which they frequent, and hinders apprehension of the suspects.

(Did I pass the political corrctness test imposed by some FReepers on the previous thread that was pulled???)

I talked to the Seattle PD today and they told me they wanted to try and catch these guys without releasing the video. They didn't want to let the perps know that they had them on video. Unfortunately as of earlier today, they had not arrested anyone.
