Enron whistleblower Lynn Brewer has won $100,000 in a legal settlement after suing the Washington Employment Security Department for delaying her public records request.
Brewer told KIRO Radio’s Dori Monson Show that a year ago, she had requested the communications related to fraud and text messages between former Commissioner Suzi LeVine and Governor Jay Inslee.
At the time that Brewer filed the suit, five months after the request, she hadn’t received one document. The lawsuit found that this delay was in violation of the Public Records Act. She is still receiving records a year later.
