Robert and Norma Taylor picked up their grandson Michael from prison last Friday, taking him on errands and getting ready for a welcome-home party with his family.

After the party at their Fairwood home, the Taylors said goodnight to everyone and settled in with Michael for the night.

Sometime Saturday, the Taylors, ages 82 and 80, were killed – as of Wednes-

day, the medical examiner had not reported how – and Michael “Chadd” Boysen was on the run, apparently in

his grandparents’ red Chrysler sedan.

The Taylors’ daughter – Michael’s mother – found them dead at home after they couldn’t be contacted.

A massive man-hunt began for the

26-year-old Boysen, a convicted felon sentenced to nine months in prison

for an attempted residential burglary in Kent. He had served five years in prison for a similar conviction.

Boysen’s family lives in the area and he has ties to the Maple Valley area.

Security at some Tahoma School District schools was heightened Mon-day as a precaution because Boysen is a former student in the district. The schools were not placed on lockdown.

The hunt ended Tuesday evening after Boysen checked into a motel in Lincoln City, a resort town on the

It’s been almost three years since the Renton Police Department began install-ing cameras in its police cars and already the system is paying dividends.

Presently, there are 18 Renton police cars with the cameras and that has been enough to already begin to see the effects, not just for the police, but also saving the city some money in terms of liability insurance, according to Renton risk manager Gary Lamb.

At a recent presentation to the City Council’s Committee of the Whole, Lamb credited the cameras with helping lower the city’s liability insurance. Lamb said it was only his opinion the dash cams are making a difference, but added the cameras and their footage have been used on several claims against the city, bolstering the city’s case. He also said the threat of using the camera footage has also shut down several claims that were pending.

“It keeps people honest,” Lamb said.

“There’s no arguing with a camera.”Detective Chris Edwards said the cam-

eras, which are mounted both near the rearview mirror facing forward as well as inside facing the backseat, are used for traffic stops, enforcement actions and any other time an officer may fear for their safety or liability issues.

“The system is there to protect the officer, the city and the citizen,” Edwards

said.The cameras were first installed in the

summer of 2010 and cost $400 each, ac-cording to spokesperson Preeti Shridhar. Police can activate the cameras anytime from a touch screen located near the rearview mirror and they automatically activate on certain cues, such as when

Dash cams keep them honest

Detective chris Edwards demonstrates how police use the camera systems mounted in 18 of Renton’s police cars. The program is expanding to 28 cars this year. BRiAn BeCkley, Renton Reporter

The Renton Housing Authority will shift resources around to cover any lack of federal support for its Section 8 housing assistance programs due to federal budget cuts.

“The surplus from non-federal programs will underwrite any loss from federal programs going forward to the extent the individual program reserves prove insuffi-cient to cover operating and rent assistance

costs,” Mark Gropper, the agency’s execu-tive director.

The Renton Housing Authority is mak-ing plans for a more sustainable business model, with the Sunset Highlands Redevel-opment project, in the wake of tumultuous federal budget cuts.

According to Gropper, the housing au-thority will be at about 92 percent of what it needs to operate its publicly subsidized housing budget in light of the federal sequester, or budget cuts.

“You can’t operate on a deficit forever and yet we are committed to our families and will use unrestricted non-federal resources as needed to meet our mission objectives and expand the agency’s ability to deliver quality affordable housing,” said Gropper about the future of federal fund-ing. “This isn’t the first time we’ve expe-rienced the ebbing and flowing of federal

dollars.”He’s used to it now with his 30 years of

experience in the sector. As it has in the past, the housing authority will use rev-enues from its diversified rental portfolio

to support programs affected by federal budget cuts.

People should not worry or panic about what this could mean for the Renton Housing Authority’s involve-ment with the Highlands project, Gropper said.

The project is promising because with it the Renton Housing Authority creates a new model of business for the housing authority that

doesn’t rely as much on federal dollars. They are partnering with property own-ers and private developers to make the Highlands project come together. In doing so, the housing authority is creating a new model for its budget that is more like a private housing operator.

In general, with its diversified rental portfolio, Renton Housing Authority’s unrestricted resources from properties that don’t have federal contracts will help them weather the storm, Gropper said.

It will allow them to proceed with their redevelopment aspirations and create a model that is sustainable and can’t be jeopardized by the relinquishing of federal money, he said.

The Boeing Co. has an-nounced plans to move its flight simulators out of their longtime home in Renton and consolidate them in a single location in Miami.

Boeing Flight Services spokesman Jim Condelles said the “vast majority” of local jobs would not be im-pacted, but approximately 100 local employees may be affected, including possible relocations or redeploy-ments to other divisions.

“It’s just not clear,” Con-delles said.

But Condelles also in-sisted the three-story build-ing on Oakesdale Avenue, south of Grady Way, will not be shutting down and the company would not be moving out.

“The vast majority of people that support our training business . . . are staying right here,” he said, adding that about 500 people work in the build-ing.

The simulator consolida-tion is part of a larger Com-mercial Airplanes focus on customer commitments, stepping up efforts to meet market demand for Boe-ing products, services and support as airplane delivery rates increase, according to a press release on the move.

The plans are for Boeing to relocate all full-flight simulators used to train pi-lots and other devices from Renton to Miami, start-ing with two 787 training suites. Condelles said not only was the Miami facility twice as large as Renton’s but it was only half-filled. The Miami facility is one of the largest commercial flight training campuses in the world, but only 11 of the building’s 20 simulator bays are in use.

On top of that, Condelles called Miami the “preferred location” for many custom-ers, especially those based in Latin America as well as the United States, Middle East, Europe and elsewhere. With this consolidation,

Miami will be established as the pro forma flight train-ing location for Boeing in the Americas.

“This is about getting close to our customers, doing what is right for them and bringing them the best product support and services in the industry,” said Sherry Carbary, vice president, Flight Services, Commercial Aviation Ser-

vices, in a press release. “If we are going to better serve our customers and meet training commitments and airplane deliveries as we ramp up on rate, the time to do this is now.”

Condelles said the deci-sion to move the simula-tors now also makes sense because the company’s 787 Dreamliner is presently grounded by the FAA due

to issues with its batteries, so there is less demand at the moment for training on the aircraft.

The move is expected to begin this week and the simulators are expected to be set up and ready for use in Miami by this summer.

The King County Library System will host an open house on March 26 to review proposed designs for a new downtown Renton library over the Cedar River.

The public is invited to attend this event from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the downtown library, 100 Mill Ave. S., Renton.

Our interactions with police officers are mostly (hopefully) benign, typically getting much-needed help or relying on them to solve

a crime.Some contact with officers is intense

and volatile; that’s just the nature of com-mitting a crime or being suspected of one. In some cases a suspect will do almost anything to get out of the grip of the law, including lying. And while we respect the work of all police officers, sometimes they can overstep, too.

That’s why having an impartial third party – a camera – is worth the money

the City of Renton is spending to put them on police cars.

Cameras intended to keep watch over us in public places are somewhat troubling; but these dash cameras seem a bit dif-ferent, helping to ensure that the rights of the public, the police and a potential wrong-doer are protected.

As the city’s risk manager, Gary Lamb, said today in our front-page article on the cameras, “It keeps people honest.”

That safeguard on honesty has already paid dividends for the city, cutting liability costs and reducing the number of frivolous lawsuits against the police.

Hillcrest School is aging, you can’t drink the water from its pipes and the parking is almost non-existent.

That all doesn’t really matter because it’s what happens inside the school that counts. That’s why it’s so frustrating that our leaders back in that other Washington can’t get the federal budget right.

Rather than figure out a thoughtful way to trim federal spending, President Barack Obama and our senators and representatives came up with the bright idea to just cut billions in spend-ing, in a process known as sequester.

I’ve been trying to figure out how all these smart people decided to use the word “seques-

ter” to describe what they’re doing. When I hear sequester, I think jury; maybe we need to lock those D.C.-ites in a room, away from the public.

(I did Google sequester: As a noun, it’s a general cut in government spending, so maybe they’re just trying to obscure what they’re doing.)

I am not writing about Washington, D.C., just to whine, but it does feel good.

I am writing about Washington, D.C., because what’s happening there could make it harder for some Renton’s kids to get a good education.

Some of that money locked away in D.C. would go to help pay for education at Hillcrest Early Learning Center. The money is tied to Head Start and the Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP), both key components of early childhood education, espe-cially for the poor and those with disabilities.

Also at the Hillcrest in the Highlands is the Renton School District’s inclusive preschool, where Sue Schindele is a speech pathologist. She gave me a tour of Hillcrest, part of the Renton

Chamber of Commerce Business and Education Exchange.

Over the years, the exchange has offered me a chance to see the wonderful work done in Renton’s schools

I was offered bottled water; staff and students aren’t allowed to drink from the fountains. Hill-crest is an old school, with an almost industrial feel because of a large chimney at its center.

Teachers have given up work space so that their students will have more room to learn. There are aides so no child is left to struggle. A student’s individual needs are carefully assessed and a plan is written to specifically meet those needs.

Classrooms are bright and cheery and geared toward kids with special physical needs. There is plenty of patience and a keen understanding on the part of specialists like Sue and the early learning teachers of what it takes to help the children succeed.

Peek around the edges from in front of that very long school and you’ll see Meadow Crest

rising behind, where about 600 kids will move next school year to continue their education in the programs now at Hillcrest.

It would be a shame if Meadow Crest Early Learning Center couldn’t serve as many students as Hillcrest does now because of federal budget cuts. Renton is investing a lot of money in a school that should be fully utilized.

Hillcrest Principal Janice Kelly says her school serves “our neediest kids.” There is a waiting list to get into the programs.

If federal budget cuts stand, Hillcrest may have to limit the number of students in its programs or even ask staff to take furlough days. Those are among a number of options and there are still many discussions ahead about how to deal with the cuts.

Look at the faces of those kids at Hillcrest and you’ll see why it matters what happens thou-sands of miles away in our nation’s capital.

For sure, Renton is taking care of its own.Dean A. Radford can be reached at 425-255-3484, ext. 5050.

Micah Nasarow and his wife Heather are trying to bring the small town appeal of shopping locally to Renton, with their Cedar River Cellars winery.

For Micah, a 20-year veteran of the fermentation and food-processing industry, it’s as simple as going back to the days of shopping down the street.

“I really think that communities need to start looking back at each other and saying we have the baker, the butcher and the winemaker,” he said. “Instead of going all the way into Bellevue to Whole Foods, just go to the top of the hill, go the two blocks to your grocer and not go across town.”

Nestled in a residential neighbor-hood in the East Renton Highlands is the Nasa-row’s Cedar River Cellars. The husband and wife team have gone from producing

100 pounds of grapes, as amateur brewers in 2005, to producing 5 1/2 tons of fruit professionally by 2009. At that time, they produced 200 cases. Today they are up to 350 cases of wine, with hopes to go up to 450 soon.

Their operations are run out of a ware-house off of Lake Kathleen Road Southeast in Renton. The Nasarows get their grapes from Eastern Washington. Their wines are Ava’s Crush Cabernet Sauvignon, Bella Bella Syrah (named after their daughters), Watershed Merlot, Confluence (Cabernet and Syrah blend), VNA Viognier, Mormor Riesling and they’re working on a Cabernet Franc.

“In the end, we really just wanted to connect with our community and provide them with a quality wine that didn’t taste like candy,” said Heather.

Micah said their wines have a roughness

to them, true to their handcrafted quality.“It’s rustic,” he said. “It’s small, Cedar

River, handcrafted artisanal wine.”The couple used

to work at Star-bucks: she was a coffee master and he a sensory scientist. Micah’s also fermented everything from beer, mead, cider, sauerkraut and now wine. He’s even professionally certi-fied as a beer judge,

which was his first passion. Switching to wine-making was a natural progression for the couple, with Micah at the helm. He has a bachelor’s of science in food science and

technology from Oregon State University. Both Heather and Micah grew up in small

Oregon towns; his was in Willamette Valley and agricultural-based. The couple first produced wine for guests for their wedding from a wine kit they purchased.

The Nasarows pride themselves on not producing wine from grapes that aren’t grown in Washington. So they don’t have any Bordeaux blends or Rhone-style wine. They want to work with the quality wine that’s grown in the state and make a name for Renton with their winery.

“People have this perception that Renton is a ghetto or dangerous or whatever,” said Heather. “There are so many beautiful things in Renton, so many wonderful busi-nesses that you really can shop local. And you really can get everything you need in Renton.”

The winemakers plan to expand their space in the East Highlands. There is a large lawn surrounding the warehouse where they envision hosting outdoor tastings and picnics. They’d also like to add a bar area to the space and invite people to come fill up their growlers, or bottles, and take wine home.

“We have been beating the bushes pretty hard here in Renton with just neary a peep out of anybody,” said Micah. “And all of the sudden in 2013, it’s literally been almost the phone ringing off the hook daily; people find out about us more.”

Probate is the legal process that determines how a deceased person’s assets will be distributed. The Superior Court has jurisdiction to approve the decedent’s Will, and to appoint the person who has the responsibility to administer the estate.

In the process, the rights of the estate’s beneficiaries, as well as the decedent’s creditors and taxing authorities are protected. The financial aspects of the decedent’s life are “wrapped up” and the assets are distributed in accordance with the decedent’s wishes.

Protect your right to distribute your estate as you intend in a cost-effective manner. Consult an estate planning attorney today.

Tower’s 69 flights of stairs to finish 14th overall at the annual Scott Firefighter Stairclimb to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Brown made it up the 788 vertical feet of stairs in 13 minutes and eight seconds, or about 12 seconds for each flight of stairs.

Renton Battalion Chief and Stairclimb veteran Stan Engler, who competed in the first climb back in 1992 and had the city’s fastest time last year, placed first in his age group and first among fire chiefs, finishing seventh overall in the “mas-ter’s division” with a time of 13:58, or an average of 13 seconds per flight.

Andrew Drobeck of Missoula (Montana) City Fire placed first, finishing the tower in 10:48, or 10 seconds a flight average. In fact, Missoula firefighters took the first three spots in Sunday’s climb. In total, 1,473

firefighters from 24 states and five countries competed in the fundraiser.

Firefighters must make the climb with full gear – at least 50 pounds – and using compressed air.

This year’s climb was particularly special for the Renton department, as they climbed in honor of former Chief Art Larson, who in January lost his battle with lymphoma.

Larson served 35 years in the fire service for the citizens of Renton and King County Fire District 25.

To date Renton has raised more than $24,000 during this year’s climb and donations are still being accepted.

Seventeen Renton firefighters participated in this year’s climb.

How much water is enough? As a general rule, the amount of water your child should consume (ounces) a day is equal to half their total body weight in pounds. Example: 28 pound child

NComing off a rough

showing in Saturday’s Hazen Jamboree, Hazen Soccer on Monday faced Interlake’s Saints in a non-league contest at The Joe, falling 3-0 in their first match of the season.

Interlake picked up an early goal in the game and scored late in the first and second half for a 3-0 victory, but coach Ken Matthews said he felt better about his team after the loss.

“I was surprised at how we played at our jamboree.

We didn’t click anywhere very often,” said Coach Ken Matthews in a press release. “As a coach you hope you come out of try-outs ready to go. Tonight made me a lot more com-fortable about the season.”

Matthews said his team’s improvement from Satur-day was evident in the first half, in spite of the score. But it was really apparent in the second half. Hazen had seven shots on goal to Interlake’s one and had In-terlake on their heels from the kick off in that half.

“You’re playing a team that went to state last year and is a preseason favorite in KingCo. Last year they clobbered us 5-0, and it could have been worse. If we do what we did in the second half all year I think we’ll be okay,” said Mat-thews.

Senior defender Angad Singh was Man of the Match.

Hazen hosts Newport Thursday night and plays their Seamount League opener against Evergreen Friday at Renton Stadium.

The Hazen girls tennis team is hoping for a break-out season in its first year without the boys.

This year, the Hazen squad has changed its format from a coed team to girls-only for the spring and Coach Gail Ellis said her group “should be the team to beat.”

Ellis said the team has two fourth-year varsity members, Haley Strand-berg and Kristal Kozai, to

help lead the transition. In addition to their experience and leadership, Ellis expects good things from third-year player Lesley Wong and second-year starters Elise Wong and Ashley Hwang.

In addition, NgocThuy Nguyen, Naima Shaltu and Tina Chung are moving up for the JV squad and Ellis said newcomers Catherine Ln, Kristy Huynh, Amy Huynh and Kitty Ling are all showing promise.

Coming off a tough 2012 season, the Lindbergh boys soccer team hopes to improve through the season and stay competitive.

Last year, the Eagles soccer team had only one return-ing starter, Troy Jaramillo, and that reflected in the school’s 2-14 record.

But with Jaramillo, the team’s leading scorer and an All-Seamount League first team player, lost to graduation, coach Ryan Johnson said he is looking to underclassmen to lead.

“The overall talent in this program has increased with the incoming freshman class and the addition of a few upperclassmen,” Johnson said in an email.

Johnson said sophomore midfielder Efrain Velasco and junior midfielder/forward Mengistiab Woldearegay were two to watch on this year’s Eagles team.

Lindbergh opens its season at 7:30 p.m. Friday against Foster at Renton Memorial Stadium.


comers should help make up for the loss of Loan Nquyen, last year’s league champion, Samantha McCord, Vivian Chan, Jennifer Diep and others.

Strandberg, Kozai and Lesley Wong all played in last year’s district tournament, though they did not advance past it and Ellis thinks this might be the year to crack into the next level.

“Our top singles and doubles players should have a shot at state and we should be solid all the way through the team during league play,” she said in an email. “I think Hazen should be the team to beat, but several of the other teams in the league always come up with tough competi-tion. That’s why we play the game!”

northern Oregon coast.After a seven-hour standoff,

Boysen was taken into custody, critically injured by apparently self-inflicted cuts. He was airlifted to a Portland hospital, where he was reported in serious condition on Wednesday.

What wasn’t clear mid-week was a motive for the killings. Prosecutors as of Wednesday had

not made a decision about charg-ing Boysen.

Sheriff ’s detectives had inter-viewed Boysen’s friends and fam-ily members since the slayings.

“Everyone seems to think he really loved his grandparents,” Sgt. Cindi West, a spokeswoman for the King County Sheriff ’s Office, said Monday. The Sheriff ’s Office is investigating the homicides.

After the couple’s slaying, investigators with the Sheriff ’s Of-

fice learned he had made threats against his grandparents and police while in prison.

And sources indicated Boysen was going to buy guns to carry out his threat; Boysen had searched the Internet for gun shows some-time before or after the death of his grandparents, West said.

West said investigators were not aware of any guns that may have been at the grandparents’ home. King County Sheriff John

Urquhart said Monday the Tay-lors weren’t killed with a gun, but he wouldn’t reveal how they were killed.

Boysen’s flight came to an end when an employee at the WestShore OceanFront Suites in Lincoln City recognized him from the national media coverage and called police. Boysen also used his own name to register for a room.

Throughout the day, a SWAT team and local police in Lincoln

City attempted to talk Boysen from the room, resorting to flash bombs, a water cannon and even-tually breaking into the room. At one point he told them to leave him alone.

According to media reports, Boysen was alone in the room when SWAT teams entered at about 7 p.m., finding him alone and lying on the floor with the ap-parent self-inflicted injuries.

Senior Services’ Volunteer Transportation is seeking additional volunteers to help make sure local seniors get where they are going.

The group provides vital rides for Renton seniors. Us-ing their own vehicles, volunteer drivers help older adults maintain their independence by taking them to/from necessary medical appointments.

Clients appreciate their improved access to medical care, meaningful interactions with caring volunteers, and increased peace of mind.

Volunteers often find the program to be as valuable as the seniors do.

Mary Anne M., a long-term driver, writes, “I so enjoy driving for Senior Services’ Volunteer Transportation and have met so many kind and interesting people. They are as good for me as I am for them.”

However, the program does not have enough drivers to meet the demand for transportation from older residents of the Renton community. Anyone who has the “drive” to help others is strongly encouraged to volunteer.

For more information, call 206-748-7588, email Hilary at [email protected], read the agency blog at www.volunteertransportation.blogspot.com, or visit www.seniorservices.org/transportation.

Valley Communications Center is hosting a Citizens Academy from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 13. This one-day program is designed to introduce the public to the exciting world of emergency communications, from the time a 911 call is received to the moment a police or fire dispatch is made.

Participants will also learn about the technology and tools involved in emergency communications, and what the future will bring with advancements such as texting to 9-1-1.They will be given the opportunity to sit in with a 911 call receiver and dispatcher to see what happens when you call 911.

Valley Communications Center handles 911 calls for most of South King County.

Interested parties are invited to complete an applica-tion on the agency website, http://www.valleycom.org.

Dispatch agency offers citizens Academy April 13


the officer activates the light bar or sirens or unlock the car’s guns.

Police also carry a wireless microphone that syncs with the car’s hard drive so they can record any incident. Recording cannot be stopped from the pack, however.

Edwards said the video is “extremely helpful” to the police as they work on cases, because the videos are placed on the depart-ment’s server and are accessible.

“We as detectives will use it to review the photos or video,” he said.

Edwards said the recordings can be helpful to catch the “excited utterances” of domestic violence victims before they can

change their statements as well as anything a suspect might say during transport.

“This increases our accuracy tenfold,” he said.

Edwards said he would also use the sys-tem to catalog items he would remove from a suspect during a search, holding each up in view of the camera and describing it for the record. Its comes in handy, he said, at the King County Superior Court when a jury and prosecutors can actually see an item like a gun or a stolen credit card come out of a suspect’s pocket.

“It’s a wonderful tool,” Edwards said. “It reinforces the information officers write in their report and what victims and witnesses say.”

Edwards said a statement is also some-times very cold and impersonal, whereas a jury can actually see the emotions on a

video.Edwards said because of distrust of

police, it pays to use the cameras on every incident and contact.

“You never know what that person is go-ing to do or going to say or going to accuse,” he said.

Because Washington state law requires that both parties know if a recording is being taken, the police announce at the beginning of a stop that the incident is being recorded. Edwards said most drivers “welcome” the video, because it ensures the stop will be recorded accurately.

Edwards said the videos are also helpful at large chaotic scenes, because it gives of-ficers a chance to review the incident under calmer circumstances.

From a liability standpoint, Lamb said there are no direct statistics on claims involving the dash cams, but police liability claims to the city have been decreasing since the cams were installed.

In 2010, for example, the city received 19 police liability claims. In 2011, that number

dropped to 12. In 2012, it was down to 10.A claim does not necessarily mean the

city was found liable or incurred any ex-pense, simply that one was brought forward.

But Lamb also recounted a specific incident where the cameras saved the city money. According to Lamb, Renton police were recently involved in a two-car accident that left a police vehicle totaled. After the video was presented to the other motorist’s insurance company, the claim was settled in the city’s favor.

“That insurer at first wanted to settle on a 50/50 basis,” Lamb said. “After a review of the video the insurer agreed to pay 100 percent of the city’s damages. The savings to the city was significant and can be credited to the presence of a dash cam.”

Because of the success of the system – and the savings in the city’s insurance coffers – the city is installing another 10 cameras in the near future, bringing the total to 28.

“Everyone likes having them,” Edwards said. “It’s definitely beneficial to us.”
