It's official: Nothing of consequence will happen to Sharon Koski, a Dane County Family Court counselor who was caught falsely claiming, on paper and even under oath, to be a licensed marriage and family therapist (see Watchdog, 11/27/08).
Dane County District Attorney Brian Blanchard recently declined to take action, saying there are other forums for appropriate action, like Koski's employer.
Koski's boss, Kristen Ryan, recently wrote that she considers the matter "closed" now that Koski has stopped making this false claim. And, after six months, the state Department of Regulation and Licensing is apparently still weighing whether to take the only action it can - asking Koski to stop making this false claim.
In other news, the guy who writes Isthmus' popular Watchdog column would like to thank the Pulitzer committee for its three recent first-place awards, including Best Journalist Ever. He owes it all to honest living.
