(Olympia, WA)  --  The Washington State Department of Corrections is looking for a new IT chief.  Ira Feuer, who was in charge of the department's information technology for about a year, has resigned.  Officials say Feuer's departure is not part of any disciplinary action taken at the department as a result of the improper early release of thousands of prisoners in Washington.  "The Olympian" quotes a spokeswoman for Governor Jay Inslee as saying Feuer told investigators about the programming problem that caused the releases and took steps to get it resolved.
