$42 Million Tort Claim Accuses Washington AGO, WSU of Racketeering
A potential subcontractor for a state police use of force database project who has had a long-running feud with the state Attorney General’s Office and Washington State University has now filed a $42 million tort claim that includes accusations of racketeering.
