Mike Redman was my predecessor as San Juan County Prosecuting Attorney, having resigned to become Executive Director of the Washinton Association of Prosecuting Attorneys with offices in Olympia. This photo, taken during Mike’s unsuccessful campaign for Attorney General, Mike is in the center, Pat McMullen on the left, and I’m on the right.
Mike graduated from Franklin High School in Seattle and Yale University in 1963, followed by the University of Washington Law School. He then volunteered for the U.S. Army and served in Vietnam. He was featured in the nationally televised special “Halftime,” which traces the lives of five members of his Yale class. It was said correctly about Mike, “He was definitely the guy you wanted in your foxhole when the action started.”
