WA Senate Panel To Subpoena Records On Inmate Releases

(Olympia, WA)  --  A Washington State Senate committee plans to subpoena records from the Department of Corrections.  Officials say the goal is to establish an independent investigation into computer issues that led to the early releases of thousands of inmates.  The "Spokesman-Review" reports the committee voted, 13-7, to subpoena records from the DOC and the governor's office.  It's the first such action by the Washington Legislature since 1987.
