Doctor's office was part of a hospital complex. Any dr offices that are affiliated with a hospital are off limits, if I remember correctly.

The Illinois Lung & Critical Care Institute may be owned by OSF HealthCare but it's not in the same location as the hospital. It's over a half mile away and in a separate building altogether. Still, I see no intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cope Posted February 15, 2019 at 06:13 AM Share Posted February 15, 2019 at 06:13 AM Seems pretty cut and dry. He carried in a posted area and had a negligent discharge. He should face the charges. It's the risk taken. Not saying I have not taken that risk, but we must be prepared to face the penalty. That is why its a risk. On an off main topic, this is why derringers are silly.
