In the spirit of transparency, we are releasing the public records we previously obtained regarding the Clallam County Superior Court’s hiring and subsequent termination of former Family Court Commissioner Brian Parker.
As previously reported, Parker’s termination in February created the vacancy on the bench recently filled by Commissioner Lorraine Rimson.
We obtained these documents from the county in two different batches: one concerning his initial hiring process, and a second regarding his departure.
In our continuing commitment to government accountability, The Olympic Herald is publishing these records in their entirety below.
