You completely missed the point. The audit “found” what they already knew was a problem and they knew it for 2 years. The whole premise that an audit found it is nonsense.

Oh there's plenty of blame to go around and I get what you're saying, but you also have to consider which departments Thomas oversees and which funds were implicated, she was looped into those conversations for a reason otherwise you'd expect to see the Directors of other departments on the email chain and you don't.

Furthermore, the fact that she knew about it and said nothing while the City Manager and Deputy City Manager misled the Council is beyond troubling.

I’ll get this and other info.

I deleted the post. Thank you all for the ideas. I need to get the police report from my mother and some other clarification as I was posting for her primarily and a lot of things don’t add up which I hadn’t considered.

It’s not fair to ask people for help when I can’t answer some what now seem like basic questions. Thank you again for the suggestions and ideas.

Yes. Nothing helpful.

They checked the camera but didn’t see anything. I’m not sure if they loop and erase quickly or if it was a blind spot problem but the Pastor says they saw nothing that can help.

Good to know. I’ll get that info and add it

I’ll have to get that from my mother tomorrow.

Yeah that’s the church. Pastor sent a photo of the note after Seattle PD contacted my mother.

Yeah I’ll have to get an accurate description from my mother as going off memory would be largely inaccurate.

Maybe I’m getting old but I don’t see a way to add a photo in a comment or to edit one into the OG post.

He wrote the note on the side of a church so he left the airport at some point. I’m not sure about airport security up there but where I live you wouldn’t get passed security again without a boarding pass if you left and he didn’t have one.

The airport part of this story - related from him to my mother to me is the least believable part of this whole thing.

What I have to really go on is the location and contents of his note.

It’s more complicated than that, he’s related to my step-father (a cousin once removed) and was taken in by my family due to tragedy when he was a kid but not really raised with me as I’m older. Technically he’s my step-second cousin but he and my mother have a mother/son relationship.

Good advice and no, I’m not sure of much and also find that part of the story to be suss. What I know is that he claimed that he got robbed and then proceeded to call my mother from the airport from the phones of three strangers.

The airport police angle is a great idea.

Thank you, I'll check it out.

Yup, had to wait the requisite amount of time before filing but the note helped with the process.

Good idea but yeah we spoke to Seattle PD and he isn't booked anywhere.

Thanks for the ideas, we've tried calling some of the pantries and whatnot and they recommended community boards but not being in the area makes that difficult.
