Inflammatory mailers target House candidate Young

Idaho House of Representatives candidate for Position B Isaac "Ike" Young
has turned in inflammatory mailers sent to residents of Latah County over
the weekend to the Latah County Sheriff's Office this morning.

Young said two members of his church informed him they received the orange
tri-fold mailer, but isn't sure how many people may have received the
letter.

He said he didn't receive one in the mail himself.

"As far as I'm concerned, there's enough evidence to give the feel that
it's from the same person or group of persons that did the Gresham Bouma
postcards," Young said. "There's too many similarities."

He said he did not believe his opponent, Rep. Shirley Ringo, or the Latah
County Democratic Party is involved.

Latah County Lt. Brannon Jordan said because the office took the initial
report today, the complaint is in the "very initial stages of
investigation."

The report has been turned over to the sheriff's office's investigation
division and will be discussed with the Latah County prosecutor today,
Jordan said.

Has anybody, here on the Viz, received one of these letters?
