Nearly 100 gathered outside the Seattle Police West Precinct to protest a decision by the King County Prosecutor's Office not to file charges against Officer Kevin Dave, who struck and killed 23-year-old grad student Jaahnavi Kandula. The announcement not to file charges was made earlier this week. Protesters say there has been a lack of accountability for the officer.
We are pursuing our legal rights to obtain justice for Jaahnavi even though the City of Seattle has failed to do so."Former Pierce County prosecutor Mark Lindquist says if a civilian were behind the wheel, this would likely have been vehicular homicide. Dave's status as an officer changes the calculus."Any civilian going three times the speed limit who kills a pedestrian is going to be prosecuted.
