Everett woman linked to prosecutor's death is back in custody
SEATTLE — An Everett woman indicted on a charge of allegedly lying to a federal grand jury investigating the 2001 shooting death of Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Wales is back in custody after being accused of violating the conditions of her pretrial release, according to court documents.
Shawna Reid, 34, was ordered detained following an initial appearance on Monday before U.S. Magistrate Judge Michelle Peterson, who set an evidentiary hearing for April 20 at 10 a.m.
Reid is accused in documents filed by U.S. Probation and Pretrial Services of using cocaine and other drugs and endangering children while on pretrial release. The allegations also say she is under investigation by Lake Stevens police for domestic violence involving her fiancé. Reid has denied the allegations and has pleaded not guilty to the indictment. Her trial on the federal charges is set for June 29 before U.S. District Judge James Robart.
One of Reid’s defense attorneys, Michael Nance of Bainbridge Island, said he had no comment on the allegations. Assistant U.S. Attorney Matthew Hoff, a trial lawyer from the DOJ’s Organized Crime and Gang Section in Washington, D.C., said in an email that the government declined to comment.
