Episode 25: Jessica Gavre and Candice Ruud, Tacoma #MeToo

David Sawyer represents the 29th District in Tacoma and 8 women have come forward to officially report his inappropriate behavior. He has been placed under House review, and he is currently restricted from contacting his staff. On today’s episode, we hear from one of those women, former legislative staffer Jessica Gavre. We also talk to Candice Ruud, the News Tribune Reporter who is covering the story of Ron Langrell, the president of Bates Technical College, who has been placed on administrative leave after being accused of inappropriate, unprofessional behavior and abusing the power and authority of his position to dominate and intimidate others. The three of us discuss these cases, the #MeToo movement, and being a human female in 2018.
