Back to the 70’s
In 2002, Chris Bayley held reunion for members of his King County Prosecutor’s Office in the 1970s. He published a booklet containing short bios of those members and in this is an excerpt from the preface to the booklet:
“I like to remember it has a group of colleagues, experienced pros from the Chuck Carroll's office, baby prosecutors from one of the first ever efforts to recruit for “our side“ at law schools, all led by very young and shockingly inexperienced “top staff.“ On that point, the division chiefs, chief administrator, and elected prosecutor himself were roughly peers: around 33 years of age as we were sworn in in January, 1971. I still remember the shock and disbelief expressed (strongly) by Mr. Carroll when my elder adviser Mort Frayn and I met with him as a courtesy in June 1970 to tell him that I would file against him.
“The eight years working with all of you in the office and campaigns was the most rewarding career among the several I have had, and I thank you all who made it possible. At today's reunion and in this book may we relive some of those days that our children would call quote back in the day... CTB”
Here are some pictures taken that afternoon and evening. Who can you identify besides Mark Sidran and Becky Roe as Sonny and Cher?
