All the Seahawks’ old fears and concerns come flooding back in collapse against Titans

Teresa Alvarado becomes emotional while holding a photo of her son, Keenan Thomas, who died at Walla Walla State Penitentiary in 2019 after being placed with a violent cellmate – against the recommendations of two Department of Correction screeners. When Alvarado spoke to him the night before he died, she said he sounded dedicated to a better life and couldn’t wait to get out. He said he wanted to be there for his children. The next day, Thomas was found dead in his cell. A wrongful death lawsuit was filed last September on behalf of Thomas’ family. Photographed in Pasco, Wash. on Tuesday, Sept. 14, 2021.

Bryan Vaughn, 62, holds a fragmented headstone at his Seattle home on Tuesday, Sept. 14, 2021. Vaughn, who has lived at this house on-and-off since 1985, says he has been digging up multiple headstones throughout the years. He says he has found fragments and one whole headstone. “The whole one was creepy, any small broken pieces you can figure is part of landfill or something they used for building the house to rubble. But, when I saw the whole one and it’s more ornate and it’s bigger, that one’s a little creepy,” said Vaughn. Vaughn has been using the headstones as doorstops for his greenhouse and has lined them next to planting beds. 218215
