NO ID Episode 23 - Cheeseburger Milkshake
Executive Producers:
Mark Ellison
A Post Falls man takes a baseball bat to the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office, and suddenly broken windows are terrorism. Meanwhile, a Spokane murder case raises questions about mental illness and criminal responsibility, and the public-health establishment unveils another terrifying COVID variant, accompanied this time by a marketing campaign that could...use some work. We also revisit Idaho's mass-psychosis-era political theater, examine the latest "transgender-rights" protests at the State Capitol, and ask whether government has any business dictating bathroom policies to private businesses.
