Inslee Appointee Lied About Domestic Violence

Olympia is buzzing this week after it was learned that one of Gov. Jay Inslee's appointees to the Housing Finance Commission 'omitted' (some say lied) on his application, failing to list a 2005 domestic violence conviction that gave him a year in jail.

Noe Castillo Jr. was appointed to the commission last November by Inslee, but had to wait til now to be officially confirmed by the Senate Housing Stability and Affordabability Committee before it became official.

According to Senate Republicans, Castillo Jr. did list a 2002 Assault -4- charge on his application, but omitted a 2005 domestic violence conviction. According to the application, the 2002 charge occurred in Franklin County. The 2005 charge resulted in him getting a year in jail, a year of community supervision, a $500 fine and was ordered to have no contact with his wife.

Castillo Jr. has been a key rising figure in the Carptener's Union since 1994 in Washington state.

Legislators are calling the approval 'hypocritical,' given Democratic leaders frequently calling for the resignation of several GOP legislators over allegedly controversial statements about media and reporters in the last year.

Legislators checked Castillo Jr's record after what they felt were inconsistencies in his application and throughout the process. They found the second conviction information in the Washington State Patrol WATCH rapsheet.

Some point out that wife-beater jailbird, Noe Castillo, Gov. Jay Inslee’s appointee, lied on his official application......failing to list a 2005 domestic violence conviction that got him a year in jail.
