Dang, I thought the name Dave Reichert sounded familiar.

I guess I remember him from an A&E documentary on the Green River Killer
case. And how he detailed the ordeal of hanging tough for the length of
the investigation.

From Reichert's Congressional website:

In 1972 Reichert joined the Sheriff’s Office and in 1997 he became King
County’s first elected sheriff in over 30 years. Under his leadership,
the county saw a significant drop in violent crime.
Reichert brought national recognition to the Sheriff’s Office as head
of the task force solving the largest serial murder case in U.S. history.
As sheriff, Reichert also brought an unprecedented $28 million in
federal funding to King County law enforcement efforts.

I worked for Reichert in the King County Sheriff's Department, I worked for his campaign to get him elected to Congress...and I'm glad I live in another Congressional District now since I would never vote for him again.

I totally respected him as the Sheriff and thought he would make an excellent Congressman. Unfortunately, shortly after he got to DC he changed his mind on many issues and became more concerned with getting reelected.

He's better then the alternative, but he was once better then he himself is now.
