Clip: Prosecutors Calling The Press To Inform What The Defense Will Do Next

0:00 Speaker 1: All right, here's another one.

0:00 Speaker 1: Iwood Goodwin, who no longer works in this department, was part of the media representative for King County prosecutors.

0:07 Speaker 1: Well, the Courier-Herald and we'll talk about how they were biased here in a moment Iwood Goodwin, a media representative for King County prosecutors, the Courier-Herald calls up and says hey, what's the defense next move?

0:20 Speaker 1: Now think about that question.

0:22 Speaker 1: He's calling King County prosecutor's office, getting ahold of the representative and asking what is the defense going to do next?

1:20 Speaker 1: That was going on, in fact, after the trial, when called Mr Gu I think that's how his name is G-O-O-D-H-E-W and I asked him.

1:28 Speaker 1: I said I need, I want an investigation into the hate crime and he said there'll be no investigation in the hate crime.

1:36 Speaker 1: And I'm very familiar with Athena Dean Holtz, very familiar, you get the idea.

1:43 Speaker 1: This is not witness tampering, because they knew she was actively engaged in hate crime activity in intimidation to us, and the King County prosecutors protected her so that she could continue and inflame the hatred against her.
