Legslative candidate Jimi O'Hagan charged with two felonies

Jimi O’Hagan, a challenger for a Southwest Washington legislative seat, was charged with two felonies Monday, adding some last-minute drama to what had been a sleepy race.

Charges were filed by Lewis County prosecutor Jonathan Meyer on Monday, with a summons issued Tuesday for O’Hagan to appear in Pacific County Superior Court at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 18.

O’Hagan, a Grayland cranberry farmer running as a Republican, is charged with possession of a stolen vehicle and first-degree possession of stolen property.

According to the Chinook Observer, the charges are the result of an ongoing dispute between O’Hagan and Raymond resident Brian Couch.
