Man leaves jail for medical treatment

 

Rock County Sheriff Bob Spoden said his jail isn’t equipped to treat Anthony Darwin for testicular cancer and getting him the proper medical care could potentially cost the county hundreds of thousands of dollars

He turned himself in on Jan. 10. District Attorney David O’Leary said Darwin was looking for medical treatment for stage four testicular cancer and had no health insurance

Bates said it was likely taxpayers may still end up with the tab for Darwin’s treatment, since he may end up applying for state health insurance, but the judge still granted Darwin’s release on a signature bond. Darwin is due back in court today.
