Mike Redman was my predecessor as San Juan County Prosecuting Attorney, having resigned to become Executive Director of the Washington Association of Prosecuting Attorneys with offices in Olympia. This photo, taken during Mike’s unsuccessful campaign for Attorney General, shows Mike in the center, Pat McMullen on the left, and me on the right.
Mike graduated from Franklin High School in Seattle, Yale University in 1963, and 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.”
