Multiple agencies have joined together to create a task force in response to the increase in crimes that are violent and gun-related in Snohomish County. FOX13
"We have seen a steady increase in violent crime and crimes involving guns in our community and the individuals responsible do not recognize jurisdictional boundaries," said Everett police chief Dan Templeman. "By partnering with other affected communities, we are able to increase our effectiveness throughout the region and improve safety for all our residents."
In a news release, the officials said officers will address and investigate crimes, while the prosecutor’s office will ensure the crimes are investigated thoroughly to hold offenders accountable. The partnership with the FBI will allow the unit to have an intervention component, which will identify individuals, often children, who are being exploited by criminal groups to participate in criminal activity and provide them with resources and alternatives to address violent crime behaviors.
"It’s difficult to conceive of more appalling acts than when adults manipulate children," said Kelly Smith, Assistant Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Seattle Field Office. "Our goal in support of this multidisciplinary team, is to offer help to at-risk youth who are being exploited by people with ties to violent crime in the north sound region."that I have read and agree
