The purpose of the Independent Force Investigations Team–King County is to provide a structured and independent investigation for officer-involved incidents where the use of deadly force by a peace officer results in death, substantial bodily harm, or great bodily harm, occurring within the boundaries of the member law enforcement agencies of this agreement. In accordance with RCW 10.114.011, IFIT-KC shall conduct an independent criminal investigation to determine the facts of the incident. The results of the IFIT-KC investigation shall be forwarded to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office (KCPAO) for review at the conclusion of the investigation. The prosecutor’s office, not IFIT-KC, will interpret statutory law as it pertains to the incident and
determine if there were any criminal violations.

After I completed the very first Community Police Academy (I would highly recommend participating in this), I had the honor of doing my "ride along" with Sgt Walker. A true compassionate professional and an asset to our LFP police department.
Sunny, with a high of 82 and low of 51 degrees. Sunny during the morning, clear overnight.
What an excellent choice. Chief Zanella will do an excellent job leading our LFP PD.
