The office is not allowed to screen its employees for steroids, per state law and union agreements, nor is it allowed to research whether employees who are on steroids obtained the drugs by prescription or through illegal means Wow...

If it's true others knew, you can bet that there will be more investigations and most likely some will lose their jobs.

I'd say the odds are pretty stacked against Darrion but still... innocent until proven guilty. I wish the best to the others being investigated. I hope their involvement was less than is being speculated.

How can someone be smart enough to hold down a job as SWAT firearms instructor, but oblivious enough to send all those texts implicating himself in criminal acts? It sounds like most of them were forensically recovered from his phone long after the event. Sending them is stupid enough. Failing to wipe your phone when you know there is a search warrant issued for you? For a deputy who has probably seen hundreds of warrants?

He'll fucking roll.
First question, where is the damn money? Dealing steroids, selling stolen ammunition/ brass and his gear/ training business income plus 15+ year deputies don't make minimum wage and still poor enough to put her on the corner for 80%?
Let's see, a guy who is obviously into the macho side of cop work, the tattoos, the muscles, all the cool guy gear, kicking doors and slaying hos. Yeah, gambled away or there are a couple other chicks yet to come forward. They'll probably show up when the rent, or car payment, is late. |

There's definitely a bunch of money involved.
 Where are the guns? His safe was empty, no guns no ammunition at his house. "In his own words, he said, after he learned of the investigation, 'I got something for their asses. Hang on, it's about to get real,'" Ernsdorff said. "This is not a subtle comment. This is a direct threat that 'It's going to get real,' that has sent chills throughout all the witnesses we've talked to." Ernsdorff revealed that Holiwell has 69 handguns registered under his name in the state of Washington and not one has been accounted for. According to court documents, investigators were unable to recover any firearms or ammunition from Holiwell's home when they served a search warrant in April. http://mynorthwest.com/11/2551818/King-County-deputys-69-guns-missing-witnesses-in-corruption-case-worried |

Sheriff’s deputy at the center of a police corruption scandal for distributing drugs pleaded guilty Monday afternoon. Darrion Holiwell is expected to spend a year and a day in prison -- multiple terms on seperate criminal charges that would run at the same time. He's also expected to get a year of community supervision after his release. Holiwell is expected to have a sentencing hearing later this year. |

he took a year and a day to get out of going to jail. You can never serve a day and lose your rights. The crime just has to be eligible for a year, or more, punishment, it's not the length of time served. Hell, if they give him drug diversion for the 'roids he might be out before the end of the year.

Sounds like all they really had on him was the steroids. All the range shit was well known and going on a long time. If he has piles of department equipment for the squad that will be no crime to the masters who the armed gangs serve.

In Pierce County you can do Drug Court for a first offense and end up with a clean record. To get in you need to have a non-violent felony with a drug problem and it usually takes about 2-3 years. Lots of NA meetings and piss tests. But if you graduate the program your record is expunged. Do not know how the Feds handle this on a NCIC check but you are apparently good instate. Not sure what they have going on up north though. |

The fast resolution of this case at least shows he manned up. 4 months from the time he was placed on leave to the time it was adjudicated in court is pretty damn fast in today's world, deputy or not. |

Per Phil's quote above he has pled guilty and in expected to be sentence later this year. His sentencing range and/or prosecutors recommendation is going to be a year and a day. Drug court diversion can be argued by the defense at sentencing. And with no set sentencing date they have time to screen him for eligibility before that court date.

Cop who pimped wife accused of lying to judge Judge Heller called Holiwell a "disgrace" to his profession, but agreed to waive Holiwell's financial penalties amounting to several thousand dollars in fines and court costs because Holiwell claimed he was indigent and had virtually no financial resources. Now the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office is alleging Holiwell lied to the judge. Senior Deputy Prosecutor Gary Ernsdorff filed a motion Monday requesting that Judge Heller vacate the sentence and set a new hearing. Ernsdorff stated that about three weeks before his sentencing on August 4, Holiwell secretly requested a withdrawal of $181,685 from his retirement account. The prosecutor is not alleging Holiwell committed a new crime, but that he may have committed a fraud on the court. The judge could decide to set aside the previous sentence and impose more prison time, higher fines or both. |

From all accounts she was A-OK with (or an active promoter) stripping, prostitution & both of them sleeping around until he slept with the 'wrong' friend... Then we're off to the races for divorce, exposure of the whole thing, and so on... Once you light that fuse, every other little illegal thing he's done comes to light - roids, the theft/'supply trading', etc... And then we end up with a DV conviction, no guns, and so on... My thought is more 'if this guy is such a money-grubbing bastard, what sort of *real* corruption is he involved in'... If you'll pimp your wife out (ignoring, for the purpose of argument, that her complimentary lack of a moral-compass may have encouraged this), you'll probably take bribes & such too... |
