Erskin Pleads Guilty in Kansas Medical case and Campaign History
Erskin pled guilty to clinic Botox injections from 2013 to 2015. In June a Finney County judge ordered him to stop practicing as a physician assistant in Kansas while a lawsuit proceeds. He had filed to run against John Wheeler in the 123rd District House race but terminated his campaign before the August 2 primary. Wheeler won the primary and later the seat unopposed in the general. Erskin has prior legal trouble including a 2009 arrest, a 2010 felony conviction, and a 2012 license suspension for failing to disclose the arrest. He served in the US Air Force and later became campus dean at NAU Garden City Community College in 2014, not employed since May.

The suit cites missing 10 minute safety rounds, unmonitored cameras, and prior sexual hostility as factors.

The October monthly report shows Kansas state government missing the revenue projection by 12 million, with most shortfall in retail sales and corporate taxes. The treasury had higher than planned individual income tax deposits, while officials remained concerned by a national downturn in corporate and sales receipts. September collections fell 45 million short of April projections.
