Drunk Chat @ Resort Leads To Jail

A home-invasion robbery suspect set to go to trial next month is back in jail after the Spokane police detective who investigated the case said the man drunkenly approached him at the Coeur d’Alene Resort. Nathaniel Jay Dishneau, 30, was prohibited from leaving Spokane County or contacting case witnesses when he approached Detective L. Tofsrud Sept. 3 about 7 p.m. at the Coeur d’Alene Resort and said, “You know I can’t do life, man,” according to court documents, apparently a reference to Dishneau’s possible consequences under the state’s three-strikes law/Meghann Cuniff, Sirens & Gavels.

Question: Doesn't this make you wonder who's hanging out at the Coeur d'Alene Resort or in downtown Coeur d'Alene at any given time?
