Clark kept case alive

Mon., June 4, 2012

I wish to thank Doug Clark for his fine summary of the Otto Zehm debacle. I believe it took a lot of courage to take on the city of Spokane and the Spokane police. I believe he helped keep us aware of Zehm’s death for six years.

After reading Mr. Clark’s summary, someone said, “He doesn’t pull any punches.”

Thanks for a job well done.
