Kootenai County’s chief deputy prosecutor sent sexually explicit e-mails and graphic images on his county computer to two former co-workers, who have accused him of sexual harassment. One of the women also sent Chief Deputy Prosecutor Rick Baughman nude photos and sex videos via county e-mail. About 50 e-mails between Baughman and former victim’s advocate Laura Bonneville were released by the county Tuesday in response to a public records request from The Spokesman-Review. The e-mails – some of which include attachments depicting bestiality, oral sex and a toddler with his genitals exposed, among other graphic images – were also sent and received by other county employees -- Taryn Brodwater & Erica Curless/Spokesman-Review.
