Bonner County Reviewing Sims’ Conflict Complaint

The Coeur d’Alene Press is reporting that Bonner County Prosecutor Louis Marshall is reviewing Coeur d’Alene Republican Kathy Sims’ complaint and would issue a legal analysis at the end of the week regarding the City of Coeur d’Alene and possible conflicts of interest with McEuen Field decisions.  The complaint says that ethics in government laws could have been breached as Coeur d’Alene city officials worked on the conceptual plan for the downtown park because some officials have business and property ties near the park.  Kootenai County Prosecutor, Barry McHugh, forwarded the complaint onto  Bonner County because his wife had contracts with the City of Coeur d’Alene and he, too, wanted to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest.  Read the full article here.

Do you think that Prosecutor Louis Marshall will have a finding different than Deputy Attorney General Brian Kane, who found no conflicts existed?
