A one-time Idaho House of Representatives candidate won't face criminal charges after mailing his Republican primary opponent a fake certificate for one visit to Dr. Jack Kevorkian.

Mike Adams resigned as a precinct committeeman in Bonneville County and will no longer be the county's voting representative on the state GOP central committee.

Bonneville County prosecuting attorney Dane Watkins Jr., said Adams would not face misdemeanor charges of making a threat against a state official because the law requires that a specific threat be made.
