COLLUSION? As many of you know, my job is to ask tough questions and hold public officials accountable. Few days ago, @jasonrantz first reported on King Co. morgue running out of space due to fentanyl overdose deaths. I contacted @KCPubHealth PIO James Apa. Here’s his response.

MY INQUIRY TO DOW CONSTANTINE: Last week, I also reached out to @kcexec’s media handler Chase Gallagher about the Federal Way homeless motel and King County’s involvement. Here’s Chase’s response below. Notice any similarities to Apa’s?🙃

COMMON DENOMINATOR: Back in September, I confronted King County Executive Dow Constantine over community concerns about his HOMELESS MEGAPLEX. His media handlers tried to block me but I chased him down to get answers for #Chinatown-ID. Things haven't been the same between us.🙃

I'M STILL GOING AFTER THIS STORY: @KCPubHealth's Dr. Faisal Khan says,"the medical examiner's office is now struggling with the issue of STORING BODIES because the fentanyl related death toll continues to climb." #Seattle

@KCPubHealth KING COUNTY HOLDING CITIES HOSTAGE: Listen carefully to Federal Way Councilmember Erica Norton's question regarding consequences for declining @kcexec @KC_RHA 's permit application for homeless motel(Stevenson). I'm still chasing this one too. #FederalWay
