Pursuit suspect tried to hide in backyard pool
A grieving family waited for 9 years to get justice after a DUI driver killed their loved one only to be sentenced to 26 months in prison. The Spotlight examines the state sentencing guidelines set by the legislature for Vehicular Homicide that amounts to a slap on the wrist for the killer and a slap in the face to the families of victims. Plus, surveillance video shows a suspect's bizarre behavior in the minutes leading up to the murder of his mom. And, how a simple traffic stop turned into a police pursuit that ends with a suspect hiding in a backyard pool. Then, Washington state is so far behind the rest of the country including the District of Columbia in police officers per capita that 1,600 officers would have to be hired just to get to 50th place currently held by Oregon. An expert details a new report on the challenges for law enforcement, even as a new report says crime is down year to year.
