He’s covered attempts by state lawmakers to exempt themselves from public disclosure laws, how the Seattle Mariners threatened to not renew their lease at Safeco Field if they didn’t get $180 million in taxpayer funds, a Spokane addiction counselor who led a double life as a drug dealer, and how the opioid crisis is impacting county jails. Josh most recently covered cops, courts, and Spokane County government for the Inlander alt-weekly as a staff writer.
