said. “It’s almost unheard of for there to be a fourth trial.”
Lindquist was the elected Pierce County Prosecutor when Sergeant Mark Renninger, Officer Tina Griswold, Officer Ronald Owens, and Officer Greg Richards were fatally shot at a Parkland coffee shop before their shift began on Nov. 29, 2009. “I was at the crime scene shortly after the murders. Some of those images are seared into my mind forever. It was traumatic for the community,” Linquist said.Darcus Allen is accused of giving Clemmons a ride to and from the coffee shop.Why sexually violent predators are being housed in local communities
Allen was convicted of premeditated murder in 2011 and sentenced to 420 years in prison, but the Washington State Supreme Court threw out the conviction in 2015, saying that a trial attorney — for the prosecution — gave incorrect information to the jury.On Thursday, jurors in Allen’s third trial said they could not agree on a verdict and the judge, again, declared a mistrial.Lindquist said time is not on their side.
When asked if yet another jury can’t reach a verdict in Allen’s next trial, Linquist said, “The prosecution has given the jurors now a fourth opportunity, and if the jurors can’t agree on a conviction, it’s time to respect that and move on.”
