Gwen Baumgardner, KIRO 7 NewsMASON COUNTY, Wash. — Newly released audio from the Mason County Sheriff’s Office offers a confession and motivation for an October shooting in Shelton. The audio is the interrogation of former Department of Corrections officer Christopher Floe, who allegedly helped stage his own attack.
On October 7, 2021, Floe was getting out of his car before work, when he was shot in the back. At the time he told investigators that he was ambushed by a stranger who fired one shot and then drove off. His shooting prompted a city-wide manhunt. Within days, investigators identified a bizarre twist. Floe’s sister, Caroline Harris, was arrested as the gunman. Floe was also arrested for recruiting his sister and staging the attack.“How did you come up with the idea to stage a shooting?” an officer was heard asking.“So how do you convince your sister to do this?” asked the officer.Both Harris and Floe are facing several criminal charges, including conspiracy and false reporting. Both have pleaded not guilty.
In the audio, Floe says he had been planning the shooting ‘for a while’. He states his motivations for the attack were over frustrations with the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, an internal investigation against him, and a lack of workplace safety.“What do you mean?” the officer asks.He states in the interrogation that he hoped his shooting outside of the Shelton Corrections office would highlight the need for more security for officers.
