It was reported that a Seattle woman learned that her brother was killed by his wife, and that his adult stepchildren helped their mother load the woman’s brothers body into the trunk of a car and roll it into a ditch. The mother was convicted and given 27 years in prison for murder. The problem the deceased sister has is that the two adult step children were allowed to go free. This reportedly happened because of a State of Washington law that gives pardon to those who give criminal assistance to a family member.

Now the sister is working to get the law changed. If it does change, the renamed law will be called “Randy’s Law” after her slaughtered brother. The sister is beside her self that the accessories to the crime were not convicted and sent to prison like their mother. She does believe that children under the age of 18 should receive such leniency from the state.
