From Mel Rapozo Engage in the Discussion YouTube Channel

Another Candid Discussion with Dr. Scott Miscovich - September 8, 2020

(Dr Miscovich begins at 19:20)

HNN Sept 10, 2020:  Dr. Scott Miscovich, a COVID-19 testing expert and critic of the state Health Department, said Smith was forced into a leave of absence after being accused of threatening violence with guns. Miscovich made the comments Tuesday night on the Facebook page of Kauai County investigator Mel Rapozo.

He said he got a call from Smith as she was being escorted from the Health Department building by a state deputy sheriff. She was crying and bewildered as to her reason for being forced out, he said.

“Eventually they gave her a letter, which I do have a copy of, which is saying like she she was threatening someone with guns or something. She doesn’t have guns. It was just saying that a couple of nameless people were saying that she was threatening violence against them,” Miscovich said.

He called the situation "classic whistleblower retaliation.”
