In this 2019 photo, King County Detective Kathleen Decker speaks at a news conference, while Sheriff Mitzi G. Johanknecht looks on, at right, in Seattle. Decker, a now-retired 33-year veteran of the King County Sheriff's Office, made several false statements under oath when she obtained a search warrant in a murder case in 2019, resulting in a man’s false arrest on drug charges, newly unsealed federal court orders show.
