Washington filed a campaign finance lawsuit in Thurston County Superior Court against former Grant County Superior Court judge Jerry Moberg and Moses Lake business owner Ken Greene. If successful, Moberg and Greene could face a total of $453,852.60 in penalties, plus costs and fees. The lawsuit alleges Moberg and Greene intentionally concealed the fact they were behind a political mailer attacking a candidate in the 2014 Grant County Prosecutor election. The state Public Disclosure Commission investigation report also outlines “what appear to be incomplete, deceptive, or untrue answers to staff’s questions” by Greene and Moberg. WA
