SEATTLE -- Gov. Chris Gregoire said it is "unfathomable" that an insane killer who spent three days on the run was taken on a field trip to a county fair. Phillip Arnold Paul was returned to Eastern State Hospital on Monday, one day after he was captured on a rural road during a manhunt involving dozens of law enforcement officers.
"I cannot understand why anybody would be taken on an outing, with the history of this individual, to a family day at a county fair," Gregoire said on Tuesday. "The fact that that happened, yes, is embarrassing to me and to the state. It's a wake-up call."
She would not speculate on what disciplinary action, if any, would be taken against those involved, but said all options are on the table.
(She looks like Hillary's little sister.)

“Hart said Ho has a history of violence and mental illness, and that his mental condition causes him to be extremely afraid and suspicious when he is not taking medication.”
And he was walking around in downtown Seattle?
Gregoire got elected over Dino Rossi with the help of ACORN. Rossi beat her twice in recounts but thanks to dead people voting three times and other crappola, she won. That’s when the recounting stopped. The FBI should have investigated but did not.
Starting with a long boring lecture by Mike Dukakis on the perils of furlows and killers. (granted, any speech by Mike Dukakis is long and boring)
Say WA? Evergreen State ping
Quick link: WA State Board
FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this ping list.
Ping sionnsar if you see a Washington state related thread.
My guess is that Fraudoire will appoint a "Blue Ribbon Commission" to "study" the problem and make "recommendations". Maybe Fraudoire can dig up Sam Reed to do another term as Fraudoire's Commissar.
It’s these kind hearted (read WEAK) liberals who allow this crap to happen.
Further proof of what our tax dollars are spent on, because they think we the people aren’t smart enough to handle our own money!
Because she’s condemning a problem she and her cronies created through their policies and political beliefs regarding crime and punishment.
