HOMELESS ARSON SUSPECT CHARGED: King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office charged 31 year old Arthur Arakelov with 1st degree arson this afternoon. He's accused of torching nearly 60 boats on a dry storage rack in Lake Union earlier this week at 659 NE … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
STICKY FINGERS: Arekelov has multiple convictions for burglaries, drugs, and possession of theft tools. Several people I talked to on the ground say he is well known in the homeless community and was a regular at the nearby encampments in and around Lake Union. #Seattle
LAST KNOWN ADDRESS: Arekelov put down 8914 Aurora Ave N. for his residence. But that's the Aurora Commons homeless day shelter. #Seattle
ARSON NARRATIVE: While the aftermath of this arson is clear, the motive is not. Police say Arekelov was found hiding in a boat on the water, questioned, and arrested at the scene. #Seattle
AREA IS SURROUNDED: I know of at least six homeless encampments, including the Ship Canal Bridge, that is within five minutes walking distance of this Northlake area. It's also across the street from a University of Washington(@UW) facility. Everyone wants … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
MORE CHARGES: This evening, King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office also says Arakelov was also charged today for burglary out of #Redmond. He's been prolific.

But credit @Wake_upWA for exposing how taxpayer dollars funded a Seattle men's masturbation club called "Rain City Jacks."

BREAKING: After two years of hell, Bellevue deadbeat tenants Sang and Youjin Kim have finally been kicked out of their rental property.
After numerous legal rulings against them, the Kim's were supposed to vacate by Saturday. But they went past the deadline and left a mess.🧵👇
It's unclear where the Kim's are headed. But they have kids in the Bellevue school district and it appears they have found another property. If they are renting, good luck to the landlord.
Reality is, housing court is still backed up, evictions are delayed, and mom & pop landlords are losing rights.
The Kim's and other serial squatters are just taking advantage of failed polices pushed by lawmakers such as former State Sen. Patty Kuderer.
Nice job @UnderWashington for calling out the WA Democrats who care more about the rights of pedophiles and groomers. Parents and child advocates should be hammering these lawmakers. The contact list is below. 🧵👇
Looks like King County activist judge Veronica Galvan is celebrating a banner year of releasing violent offenders.
Last month she allowed Millorz Canales to be on home detention even though prosecutors wanted him to remain behind bars.
Several days later, he allegedly went on a rampage, tying a 14 year old to a tree, stabbing him multiple times, cutting out his organs, and leaving him to die.
Canales was arrested again and is now facing new charges.
So who’s holding Galvan accountable for her troubling decisions on the bench?
BREAKING: Criminal squatter Steve Hickey just filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, hoping to shield himself from paying back hundreds of thousands of dollars in back rent, and eviction from a Ravensdale property. His house of cards is finally starting to crumble.
🧵👇
In court documents, he only claims to have $50K or less in assets.
But in this recent video, Hickey boasts about making tons of cash as a social media influencer through social media revenue, sponsorships, and licensing deals with tv stations. By my estimate, Hickey likely clears more than $200K a year.
Thousands of illegals are being transported through Seattle's King County Airport. Many will be deported.
I started documenting. But far-left activists with La Resistencia tried to disrupt my coverage. Problem for them, they don't know the law.
The woman trying to disrupt my coverage is Maru Mora-Villalpando with La Resistencia. Her group sent out an error riddled press release about this incident with zero evidence to back up their claims. Why does the far-left activist class get so triggered by the truth?

I was on assignment for Frontlines TPUSA. I showed them my press credentials. But they still blocked me until King County Sheriff's showed up and scolded the activists. They had to let me in since it's a public space. 🤣
