LATEST UPDATE: What an ordeal for @KatieDaviscourt. She's ok, but mad as hell. She wanted me to get the word out since she still does not have a phone! @RentonpdWA must find this FAR LEFT militant who robbed her. Entire region needs to stop putting up with this ANTIFA violence.
SPEECHLESS: This is a new low. There is a code among journalists to get each other’s backs in the field. But this @KING5Seattle photog does not even allow @KatieDaviscourt to use his phone to call 911, while the FAR LEFT/ANTIFA loser mocks Katie. Unreal.
STUNNING LACK OF ACTION: @KatieDaviscourt said no other reporter or photog from #Seattle’s mainstream media core today helped her call 911 after the ANTIFA assault and robbery.
#BREAKING: District 1 #Seattle Councilmember @Lisa_Herbold says she will not be running for re-election in 2023. Her team just sent out this statement with her news letter.
OUR LAST ENCOUNTER: This past September, I asked @Lisa_Herbold if she was going to run again for her District 1 seat. I had a sense she was having second thoughts. She is currently Chair of the Public Safety committee as well. #Seattle
LISA HERBOLD ALWAYS ON THE MOVE: I ran into the District 1 Councilmember this past April. As Chair of Public Safety and Human Services Committee, I wanted her take on the city's homeless crisis as well. #Seattle
LASTEST ON GRAFFITI ARRESTS: King Co. Prosecuting Attorney's Office says Casey Cain and Jose G. Betancourth have criminal histories. Sources also say Bethancourth used "SATAN/SATN" tag. Some were next to EAGR/EAGER. Massive win for @MayorofSeattle and @SeattlePD#Seattle
WASHINGTON'S MOST WANTED LIST: Authorities say Betancourth, aka SATAN, also has ties to Yakima, WA.
The accused prolific tagger was also wanted on a $750K warrant for some serious stuff. #Seattle
SHOWCASING WORK: Betancourth is very open about hyping his work on social media. Chinatown-ID and downtown #Seattle seemed to be his favorite canvas. @MayorofSeattle
#BREAKING: More details! Court documents show 2 suspects were arrested today in EAGR/EAGER tagging case and now facing FELONY level malicious mischief charges. @SeattlePD arrested them at 1208 Pine St in #Seattle, allegedly caught them in act. Big win for @MayorofSeattle.🧵👇🏽
SUSPECT #1: Police say 36 year old Casey Cain admitted to tagging the wall of building today with “EAGER.” Report shows he also has a tattoo on him that says “EAGER.” Arrested for felony malicious mischief. Judge set $10K bail. #Seattle
SUSPECT #2: Police say 37 year old Jose G. Betancourth was arrested at scene and facing felony malicious mischief charge. Judge set bail at $10k. He also has a $750k felony arrest warrant for another incident. He claims to be a mural painter. #Seattle
VANDALISM CHARGES: I just missed EAGR/EAGER in court today for first appearance. But officials say judge is holding prolific tagger on $10K bail. I am waiting on charging docs. King County Prosecuting Attorney’s office bringing FELONY level graffiti/vandalism charges. #Seattle
PROLIFIC TAGGER: As I left court today, I passed through Jackson St. in #Seattle's Chinatown-ID. EAGR/EAGER's handiwork is still everywhere. Who knows, maybe it's just one dude or a team of taggers doing this. Bottom line, someone was allegedly caught in the act by police.
SO BRAZEN: Authorities say EAGR/EAGER was caught in act. This notorious vandal is part of 3A/BTM crew. MASSIVE win for @MayorofSeattle's WAR AGAINST GRAFFITI.
Earlier this summer, look what happened to @SeattlePD mobile precinct in downtown #Seattle.
#BREAKING: Multiple sources say NOTORIOUS street tagger EAGR/EAGGER was arrested today by @SeattlePD. Vandal was caught in act and is part of city's 3A/BTM crew. MASSIVE win for @MayorofSeattle's WAR AGAINST GRAFFITI. More details to come. 🧵👇🏽 #Seattle
WAR ON GRAFFITI: Will prosecutor+judge do their part against EAGR/EAGGER? Last month @MayorofSeattle doubled down on WAR ON GRAFFITI. Then a massive mural went up mocking the Mayor. Unclear who's behind it. But recently, others tagged over it.#Seattle
@MayorofSeattle CONFIRMED: Eagr/Eager case is being sent over to the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office for felony level charges. @MayorofSeattle
Back in the summer, Eagr/EAGER tagged up the @SeattlePD mobile precinct. Brazen. #Seattle
