Detective Kim Frankel was a rising star with the Washoe County, Nevada sheriff's office and an experienced crimes against children investigator; she was working a case when her unmarked vehicle was struck by a drunk driver. The injuries would change her life forever as she would now become a victim of an incompetent and uncaring bureaucracy known as Worker’s Compensation.
Suffering from a traumatic brain injury and serious concussion, Kim expected that the medical treatment she needed, would simply be provided to her. She was wrong. The sheriffs' department and county denied her the medical treatment she needed, and as a result, injuries that could have been fixed became permanently disabling.

Kim is now working to change the laws that have allowed massive profits by private companies to control the medical care of injured workers. Hear her incredible story in this powerful interview with show host, Randy Sutton.

Lt. Randy Sutton can be heard on The Wounded Blue on the iHeart Radio Network, on the America Out Loud Network.
