Attorney Jeff Campiche represented the family of a young, unarmed high school student named Tommy Le, who was shot in the back and killed by a King County Sheriff’s officer. A cover up ensued by the department and its media relations managers, including a fabricated story that the student had a knife and lunged at the officer. The young man had no knife and was running away from the officer who, rather than deescalating the situation, pointed his gun at him. Outraged citizens and civil rights groups in Western Washington demanded justice. Seattle’s large Asian community and news editors also demanded accountability and change within the King County Sheriff’s department. In May of 2021, the lawsuit was settled by King County for $5 Million.
