“We knew there were going to be changes made,” said Paul Horgan, chairman of the district’s board of directors.

But Horgan never envisioned becoming the board’s chairman. He was escorted from the second meeting he ever attended by a Bonner County sheriff’s deputy for questioning members of the former board.
