CoiNuts travesty revisited

Congratulations to Kevin Mitchell for demonstrating to our community that if you are a con-man, scam artist or hustler you are welcome in Kootenai County, Idaho, and you should have absolutely no fear of being brought to justice by Mr. Barry McHugh the head prosecutor of Kootenai County. As I sadly write this letter I can't help looking at the CoiNuts victims list containing the names of more than 50 of Mitchell's victims who were taken by this man with a total monetary loss of more than $1.4 million. Digest that fact for a moment. If one were to look into this case you would find that the facts and allegations began to mount many months ago at which time the case was presented to Mc Hugh and his folks by the Coeur d'Alene Police Dept. In McHugh's infinite wisdom he decided that this set of circumstances did not warrant prosecution as intent, he felt, could not be shown.

But the interesting thing is that the lack of oxygen due to the OSA does not cause a brief sharp increase in eye pressure. Therefore, these patients with glaucoma have normal eye pressures.
