Alicia and Jineva Driscoll (RIP)
She called with a picnic invitation with a weekend Picnic with my sons and her daughter. She never called back. I tried reaching her for several weeks settling she changed her mind.
Dr. William Walker Director
Alicia Driscoll mother is Mary Walker part of the original founder families of Contra Costa County. That makes her a cousin of Dr. Walker head of the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center.
During Novemeber 2005 Pete Bennett arrived at the Contra Costa Regional Center with severe abdominal pain, then fever, instenstinal bloating, the usual stuff then the unusual things like blood, 105 peaking fever then his kidneys shutdown then he was near death.
Then he bounced back then asked the doctor what happened where the answer we expected you to die instead your talking then leaving.
Bennett later returned directly to Dr. Walker's officers asking for n investigation. He did know his friend was cousin to Dr. Walker was dead nor did her brother was OE that struck a fuel line in November 2004 killing five.
Worse no one said her brother was in Iraq near where Spc James Coon was killed. They both attended Los Lomas High School.
