To whom it may concern:
My name is Kim Rollness and my husband is being held pre-trial at SeaTac FDC. He has been there since Feb. 14th, 2006. On that day three law enforcement agencies converged on our home at approx 7:00 a.m. I was preparing to leave for work and our children (we have five) were getting uo to go to school. Our phone rang just as my son said "Dad, there are tanks coming up our driveway!" I answered the phone to a Snohomish County Sheriff telling me to stay calm and sit down and let the officers outside "do their job." Outside there were several police cars, two tanks and officers in riot gear coming from all areas of our property. The officers outside were yelling at us to come out of the house. I went to the door to tell them that the children needed to get dressed. They continued to yell. My husband had put on his clothes and went outside. The officers surrounded him at gunpoint, made him get on the ground in the snow and promptly took him off of the property. There was no explanation, no arrest warrant or search warrant produced until after my husband was gone and our home was invaded.
As I was gathering the children, the officers outside continued to yell and threaten and began throwing snowballs at our home. I went to the door to again tell them that the children were dressing and I was told that I would be tased if I went back inside the house. Needless to say, I did go back to get the children. Once we were outside , we waited in the snow for approx 3 hours. When it became apparent that we would not be allowed to use the phone to make arrangements for the children, I took them and went to a payphone. I found out that my husband would be arraigned that afternoon and went to Seattle.
We returned home to a disgusting display of disregard and abuse of our home. In my bedroom I found a horrible mess. Our belongings were thrown onto the floor in a broken heap. Worst of all, the remains of our lost child were opened, spilled, and defiled with soda.
As things stand now, my husband is being held in solitary confinement even though he has not had a single incident in the 6 months that he has been held there. They tell him that he is not being punished but this is the third time he has been placed in confinement. Now they are not allowing his children to come visit. He has been denied food as they tell him that they do not have a low sodium diet and fail to bring him an alternative. The situation continues to get progressively worse and we are desperate for assistance. Even his legal mail is being opened and read.
We are searching for a civil attorney to assist us. If you are in a position to do so on a contingency basis we would be forever grateful. If you are not, would you please respond and refer us to someone who may be.
Sincerely,
Kim Rollness and Family
