A man arrested for growing thousands of dollars worth of marijuana in five Snohomish County grow-houses every month has entered a guilty plea to the charges. That's big business--4,000 plants over the last five years--and he'll face up to nine years in prison for the charges.

In one of the more horrifying local news items of last year, a garden-loving 60-year-old man was beaten to death at a traffic circle in Rainier Beach. The assaulter, Brian Keith Brown, just pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder charge brought against him and will now face sentencing in May. He's probably looking at between eight and eleven years in prison. Last summer he pled not guilty, so the case against him must have been looking particularly strong. We're not shedding any tears for this guy, though.
