Washington Governor Bob Ferguson has reversed the parole decision made by former Governor Jay Inslee for Timothy Pauley, a triple murderer. Pauley was convicted for a 1980 triple homicide and was due for release on March 27, 2025. The cancellation followed significant public outcry and concerns about Pauley's remorse, with Ferguson citing doubts over the sincerity of Pauley's regret as the reason for his decision.
