Bothell principal steps away amid Charlie Kirk post controversy
BOTHELL — A Bothell high school principal has stepped away from his position following community concern over a social media post regarding the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Last week, North Creek High School Principal Eric McDowell posted an Instagram story on his personal, private account about Kirk’s death.
“Thoughts and prayers,” he wrote. “Too bad gun control would have been far far more effective (he’d still be alive). Maybe thoughts and prayers will work..oops – nope.”
The post drew the attention of right-wing social media accounts, with some calling on McDowell to resign.
