Man sentenced for racist threats to Edmonds animal control officer
EDMONDS — A man convicted of a hate crime was sentenced Wednesday to nine months in jail for screaming racist threats at an Edmonds animal control officer.
In October 2021, prosecutors charged Wagner, 36, with a felony for trying to intimidate the officer. In August of this year, after only a few hours of deliberating, jurors were at an impasse.
“Most of us are pretty set in to what we believe and we believe there is not enough evidence to change our minds,” jurors wrote to the court. “I don’t see that we can agree.”
After another trial in late October, a different jury convicted Wagner of a hate crime.
