   Does King County have an inquest if a police officer dies?

   • The King County charter mandates that an inquest “shall be held” when a police officer’s actions lead to someone’s death. But not for Tommy Le.

   Are King County verdicts binding?

   • The verdicts are not binding. King County is unique in the country in that it holds public inquests into all law enforcement-related deaths. For years, the process was biased and tilted toward law enforcement, but changes made by the county in 2018 and later upheld by the Washington Supreme Court expanded the process and made it more equitable.

   Did Washington prosecutors have to prove a police officer acted with malice?

   • The case was the second to go to trial since Washington voters in 2018 removed a standard that required prosecutors to prove an officer acted with malice — a standard no other state had. Now they must show the level of force was unreasonable or unnecessary.
