Birch Bay graffiti suspect serves time for unlawful possession

A Blaine man who was arrested in February 2021 for leaving a trail of “KJ” graffiti marks and other messages around Birch Bay served time for a separate charge he was arrested for months later. He was found in possession of a firearm in April 2021 after driving off the road in the early morning.

Joshua Ryan Taylor, 38, of Blaine, was sentenced October 13, 2022, to three months in jail after pleading guilty to second-degree unlawful possession of a firearm in Whatcom County Superior Court. He also pleaded guilty to second-degree malicious mischief, felony harassment and intimidating a public servant for the graffiti case, which was dismissed following his separate plea. Having served his time leading up to the sentencing, he was released from Whatcom County Jail October 13, 2022, following his plea, according to the jail roster.

Just after 3 a.m. April 23, 2021, WCSO deputies had responded to a single vehicle collision near the intersection of Delta Line the edge of Birch Point Road.

“I thought they did a good job presenting the complexity of the problem; how big it is and how expensive it will be,” Ansell said. “Like everything in the county, it’s in need of funding. I’m afraid the problem will get significantly worse before they can take care of the problem.”

BBWARM’s project schedule is full right now, which means they would need to get additional help, Olason said.

“Even if we had everything in place, it’s probably at least two years from now before we could get all of the permits and get to most of the projects listed, with the exception of some ditch cleaning,” Olason said. “It’s not going to be tomorrow for sure. And again, it’s also going to involve funding determinations and how we’re going to pay for things.”

Road and Vista Drive. A witness reported Taylor was driving at a high rate of speed through a four-way intersection and nearly struck them with his vehicle, according to the APC.

While emergency personnel removed Taylor from the vehicle, deputies found a pistol outside the car. The firearm held an 18-round magazine with 14 bullets inside and no bullet in the chamber, according to the APC. Taylor was not allowed to possess a firearm because of previous felonies and a no-contact harassment order.

Taylor was booked into Whatcom County Jail June 30, 2022, after a bench warrant was issued for his arrest when he failed to appear in court. As described in the graffiti case’s APC, deputies responded February 21, 2021 to a Birch Bay-Lynden Road apartment for a report of domestic violence. At the apartment, deputies found spray paint cans and painted wooden letters K and J.

Deputies arrested Taylor on February 27, 2021. During the arrest, he admitted to spray painting a slur on the seawall at the 8200 block of Birch Bay Drive. Taylor threatened the sheriff’s deputy who transported him to jail. The sheriff’s deputy determined Taylor’s statements constituted a threat of retaliation.
