Walser's best week ever?
By Bryan Bissell, PolitickerWA.com ReporterState and local Republicans are trying to capitalize on the legal woes of Democratic state senate candidate Fred Walser (D-Sultan), who pled guilty two weeks ago to misdemeanor charges of withholding evidence. Walser maintains that that the entire incident was a misunderstanding, and told the Everett Herald's Jerry Cornfield that the sentencing was, "the worst day of my life."
Still, Walser is staying in the race to unseat state Sen. Val Stevens (R-Arlington), and the Republicans are using multimedia, Cornfield reports, to try to ensure that Walser's bad day lasts until November. The state Republican caucus has created a video modeled on the cable channel VH1's celebrity show, "Best Week Ever" to mock the week in which Walser pled guilty. Then on a grassroots level, 39th Legislative District resident Chris Nandor, better known in the blogosphere as "Pudge", wrote a song to coincide with the video.
The Democrat is a long-time law enforcement officer who has been the Chief of Police of Sultan for much of the last decade. While he can take solace in the fact that his opponent will not make a campaign issue out of it, telling Cornfield, "I don't have any plan to do anything whatsoever related to it," he will not be so lucky with regard to the rest of the party.
"This man abused one public office," Washington State Republican Party Chair Luke Esser told the Herald, "and that's important information for people to be aware of when they consider if he should be elected to another public office."

Former Chief Walser Invokes the 5th Amendment In Civil
It would be expected for a Police Officer and especially a Chief of Police to tell a person to be forthcoming and tell the truth in questioning. They would tell us "it is the right thing to do." A Chief of Police should not lie during an investigation, cover up evidence, and tip the suspect all through an investigation. The Chief of Police would charge a person if they obstructed justice. He would want the person thrown in the slammer for his misdeeds. A Police Chief is normally a man of integrity. A role model for citizens to respect.
In the case for former Sultan Police Chief Fred Walser, he chose to invoke the 5th Amendment to every question except one in a civil lawsuit of his administrative assistant, Carole Pepperell. Now this is the same man who proclaimed on KIRO TV and to the public "I have nothing to hide, she has nothing to hide." Why is Fred Walser hiding behind the shield of the 5th Amendment if he is innocent and his administrative assistant is innocent? What are they hiding? Neither one would speak to Everett PD Dept. investigators during Walser’s criminal investigation. It would seem if he is a man of honor and a man who seeks the political office of Senate, he would want to be forthcoming and helpful in a case of wrongdoing.
Law enforcement needs to do a criminal investigation on the fatal poisoning of the neighbor's dogs with the Schedule II controlled substance "sodium pentobarbital" that occurred in this case and was one of the main allegations in the "Clinko Report". The Clinko report is the Sheriff report that Walser claimed he misplaced and forgot about. Mr. Walser took the 5th on the questions regarding pentobarbital (drug used to euthanize animals by animal control and vets). See www.fred-walser.com for transcript from deposition. According to investigative reports, his administrative assistant had several years of animal control experience at Sultan and Mountlake Terrace Police Depts.
Voters in the 39th District vote responsibly. Fred Walser has a good side and a bad side……take a closer look at the bad side of this candidate!
Walser guilty, but running anyway
The 39th Legislative District GOP just published a site with all the news stories linked and even copies of all the investigative documents for public perusal.
