LETTER TO THE EDITOR | Mike Hawley is Whidbey’s very own Atticus Finch

Editor, Thank you for another uplifting story in the September 28 issue. When the news is filled with violent confrontations by convoys of police terrorist squads, Mike Hawley, on foot, quietly and respectfully arrests a mentally disabled man. Coincidentally, a New York Times feature story today was entitled: “When ‘Yelling Commands’ Is the Wrong Police Response.”
