Coroner Story: Not made for TV
This is one that I’m sure would’ve had a different ending if it was on a TV show. Not enough drama in the truth. They gotta give you a wrapped up bad guy, led away with someone, some detective giving … Continue reading
Seasons
The Idaho legislature has its seasons. Old hands know this, and young bucks and does have figured it out too. You, the interested public should also know it. I don’t communicate this like I’m a wise old sage. Many are … Continue reading
Again
I had this conversation with my wife yesterday about Idaho’s abortion laws. I have told this before, but she said I needed to say it again. She didn’t remember. Maybe you don’t either. The Idaho antiabortion statutes are so confusing, … Continue reading

Coroner Story: Road
She was found by the road. And so, I was called. It can be foggy after a rain in the spring. The wheat loves the rain that rolls in from the ocean two hundred miles west. We get good rain … Continue reading
