SPOKANE — The results of a four-month investigation of state Rep. Matt Shea will not likely be released until next week, at the earliest.
Leaders of the state House of Representatives were briefed on the telephone about the report on Wednesday.
The Spokesman-Review reports that Democrats plan to meet next week with their caucus leadership about the report. The newspaper says some version of the report or an executive summary will be released to the public after that.
The investigative team, headed by a former FBI agent and a former law enforcement officer, was hired in July to determine whether Shea, a Republican from Spokane Valley, engaged in, planned or promoted political violence against individuals or groups, and to identify the extent of his involvement with groups or individuals who promote or plan political violence.
