In this episode Community Square KFUG's Heather Polen has a conversation with Brady and Isaac and their journey with Brandy's life threatening third degree burns and being denied and or delayed medical care and a clean place to recover. Isaac speaks about how Mission "Imposable" controlled and opened their mail, had control of their medical cards, appointments, transportation and plays god with peoples lives for money. Leading to questions about who supervises those who have so much power and control over a vulnerable and easily exploited population desperate for the resources only Mission Posable provides in Del Norte County? Will we the "citizens" hear their stories or will we dismiss them because its easier?
