Murder charges filed against Bothell stabbing suspect who claimed he was ‘attacked by anti-masker’
KIRO 7 News ^ | April 29, 2021 | Gary Horcher

Ian Patrick Williams, a 25-year-old college senior studying computer science, was charged Wednesday by King County prosecutors with second-degree murder and held on a $2 million bail for stabbing a man only seconds after encountering him outside a Bothell apartment complex, according to court documents.

Bothell police said Williams — who has no criminal record — is seen on video surveillance suddenly lunging and stabbing 29-year-old John Huynh 45 seconds after Williams allegedly made an obscene gesture at Huynh, who had never met Williams before, according to witnesses.

According to police documents, Huynh was leaving a Bothell apartment along with several people, including his wife, while Williams — who lived in the apartment building — was standing outside near the door.

Witnesses told Bothell police that Williams immediately “gave the middle finger” to Huynh, who was leaving the building.

Witnesses told police that Huynh then asked Williams if he “flipped him off or waved at him.” A witness told police seconds later, he saw “Williams pull out a knife and stab the victim in the heart.”

Police said a lot of witnesses at the apartment building and at restaurants across the street with outdoor seating saw everything that happened.

“Easily, 10, if not more,” Keller said. “I would think there would probably be in the ‘more’ category right now.”

A GoFundMe page has raised more than $60,000 for Huynh’s widow to pay for funeral expenses, which include transporting the body to Pennsylvania, where Huynh was born.

The article is confusing. It looks like the anti-masker attacked the pro-masker, but I may be wrong.

The press is dancing around calling this a hate crime. The (dead) victim is a Vietnamese immigrant. The attacker is white.

So we have an Asian hate crime or not?

The mask lover gave the other man the finger, then lunged at him and stabbed him. All premeditated.

Bothel used to be a wide spot in the road…mostly mid level Boeing executives lived there then along came MicroSatan a few miles east, now the place is unrecognizable. All of King County is a shithole.
