Police are searching for two teens who cut off court-ordered ankle devices in connection with a deadly pot shop robbery in Tacoma.
Barely a month ago, a King County judge sent two teens home under “house arrest” with electronic ankle monitors, after they were arrested for allegedly pistol-whipping and robbing the owner of a busy Federal Way pawn shop.
And now, The Dori Monson Show has learned, the King County juvenile court judge who released the boys to home detention “with adult supervision” has a history of handing down exceptionally low sentences. Shortly after her appointment, Rothrock presided over the case of Alrick Hollingsworth. At age 18, Hollingsworth went on the run for five months after shooting five people – some of them randomly – near downtown Seattle’s Pike and Pine streets on Third Avenue in late 2016. The melee occurred in a crowd of rush-hour commuters and protestors gathering for a rally in nearby Westlake Park.
“A standard sentence range is not necessary to give Mr. Hollingsworth an opportunity to improve himself,” Rothrock told that court. “He will mature from a teenager into an adult while serving this court sentence.”“The struggle in your community with gangs and gun violence matters to me – and our entire community shares responsibility for that struggle,” Rothrock said.
