Fake Doctor: Man Or Woman?

Ask me a question, or leave me
a comment.

An Idaho judge set bond at $100,000
for a Boise woman police say posed
as a doctor and deceived at least
two other women into having their
breasts examined by her at Boise
area nightclubs/bars.

Kristina Ross, 37, remains is in Ada
County Jail on two felony counts of
practicing medicine without a license.

His/her gender is unclear. Idaho court
records show that Ross was arrested for
petty theft in the spring, and the arrest
warrant was issued to a Kristoffer Jon
Ross.

The Idaho Statesman web site reported that
Ross has a previous criminal record as a man,
but identifies herself as a woman that was
booked into Ada County Jail as a female.

The court found Ross was eligible for a public
defender and set a preliminary hearing on the
two felony charges for December 1.

The two women told Boise officers they believed
Ross was a doctor because of her medical knowledge,
and they agreed to undergo what they thought were
breast exams at the nightclubs/bars.

To appear legitimate, Ross gave the women the
telephone number of a real licensed plastic
surgeon in Boise per authorities.

If convicted, Ross could face a maximum of five
years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000 for
each count.
