Marine veteran and sexual assault survivor Kristina Sawyckyi said she was 'touched' by the nominee

One Seattle official is refusing demands to resign after a tense committee hearing concerning the nomination of a convicted sex offender to a Seattle homelessness board resulted in her shouting at a board member.

The incident occurred during a May 3 Zoom meeting of a subcommittee of the King County Regional Homelessness Authority (KCRHA) when Marine veteran and sexual assault survivor Kristina Sawyckyj claimed the nominated sex offender, Thomas Whitaker-Raven Crowfoot, "touched" her on a previous occasion.

"We have a code of ethics on this board and Thomas Whitaker-Raven Crowfoot is a sex offender — repeat sex offender — and I have had a bad experience with him," Sawyckyj said.

Committee co-chair Shanee Colston then angrily jumped to defend Whitaker and scolded Sawyckyj for using the meeting to "out" someone despite the past convictions being public knowledge.

The man is a repeat sex offender - and worse - a pedophile - and has no business serving as a public official and moreover - is that the best they can do? They have the whole damned city, and they have to make apologies for a sex offender? What, there were no drug dealers to nominate?

He's the perfect Democrat.

They're not hiding it anymore.

But then they can say he's the 1st sex offender to serve on a public board. Its all about the firsts.

I really wish they would leave that mess they voted for behind.
