Mischler Allegations Proven False

From a story in the Appalachian News-Express earlier this year (the emphasis is ours):

"Mischler Allegations Proven False
Pike County resident Amy Mischler, former wife of Pikeville attorney Jonah Stevens, lobbied in front of the courthouse and the county attorney's office Friday with her son and a sign alleging that her ex-husband will not provide medical insurance for their children. Mischler, unemployed, alleged that county attorney Keith Hall was giving Stevens "special treatment" because they are friends.

Neither Hall or Stevens denied the friendship, but they did deny allegations of wrongdoing. Stevens provided the News-Express with documentation of his health insurance, which was effective for the children in February and will continue to be effective until July. Stevens also provided documentation that shows he pays Mischler $800 monthly for the care and support of the children.

Hall said the Pike County attorney's office sought a special prosecutor for the case from Floyd County and the office did fail to follow up quickly enough regarding the appointment of that prosecutor.

Mischler later returned to the News-Express and said that she had made a mistake and her children did have medical insurance."
