Testimony began on Thursday in the criminal trial against Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer. FOX13
Troyer is accused of phoning in a false report of him being threatened by a man who turned out to be the neighborhood newspaper deliverer. That call to a South Sound 911 law enforcement-only line was at the center of the testimony on Thursday. when Troyer began following him in his personal car. State prosecutors said Altheimer got out of his car and approached Troyer to ask why he was being followed.
A recording of the call was played during Shadel’s testimony. Troyer was heard saying, in part, "…in my driveway and my neighbor’s driveway. And he knows who I am and he tried to kill me and I’ve got him blocked in." Opening statements were delivered on Wednesday in the closely-watched criminal trial of Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer. From the start, the jury was presented with two radically different versions of the confrontation at the heart of the case.
Bremner asked Shadel: "At any time did Sheriff ask for a massive police response?" To which Shadel responded, "No, he did not.". Nine Tacoma Police Officers and at least one sheriff’s deputy were first to respond to the scene. After some assessment, Shadel said officers determined additional officers were not needed and downgraded the response call.
