SEATTLE-- Bipartisan action in the U.S. Congress could help bring closure for Pennie Saum, who has been fighting for decades to get justice following horrific crimes by her father. In November, the KOMO Investigators told Saum's story—how she and her brother were systematically sexually abused until their father was arrested and prosecuted. The siblings won a civil judgment against their father, but quickly found that federal law does not allow military pensions to be garnished, even in the case of sexual abuse. |
