Ex-candidate Wolf declining to release Kansas board’s letter

? Former U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Milton Wolf says he won’t publicly release a letter from Kansas’ medical board closing an investigation over his past Facebook postings of X-ray images.

Wolf said Monday that he doesn’t want the board to declare that he’s given up privacy rights. By law, early stages of board investigations are confidential.

Wolf is a Leawood radiologist with tea party backing in a stronger-than-expected primary challenge to Republican Sen. Pat Roberts last year.

The board investigated Wolf for posting X-ray images of serious medical injuries on Facebook in 2010. Wolf says it found no wrongdoing.

Weeks before the August 2014 primary, a board attorney asked the Topeka Capital-Journal by letter to turn over its information about the postings. The board has declined to release the letter.
