A local optometrist has filed a lawsuit alleging death threats and loss of business after she traveled to Washington D.C. on Jan. 6, court records show.
Nicole Kish, O.D. filed a lawsuit on Jan. 19 and claimed she was forced to hire an off-duty police officer following a series of death threats and harassing phone calls to the eye care clinic, the lawsuit petition reads. Kish operates her own practice at Powers Vision Eye care.Â
Kish flew to Washington, D.C. to âparticipate in the protests regarding the certification of the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6, 2021,â according to court records. The record does not say if Kish only attended former President Donald Trumpâs rally, or also marched to the Capitol.
