Barron accused his opponent's campaign of calling in the question.

"If you want to be man enough and ask me those questions, judge, you go straight ahead and do it," Barron said.

"It's nobody's business how I've been diagnosed." Later on in the forum, Langley said that "mental illness problems" probably are a legitimate campaign issue for people seeking a judicial bench.

"I do not have any mental problems," Barron responded, adding that he thought, "Mr.

Langley could benefit from speaking to a psychologist." The candidates also were asked to speak about Harrison, who Langley has described in the past as someone he mentored.

Harrison, selected by the county's juvenile board last year to serve as juvenile referee, was charged a month later with illegal influence over e-mails she exchanged with then-Judge Randy Michel.

Barron's attempts to paint Langley's relationship with Harrison as a romantic one have consisted of "outright lies," Langley said.

In fact, he said, he ended up voting to select Harrison for the juvenile referee position because she was the choice of 272nd District Judge Rick Davis.

For several years, Davis has been at odds with District Attorney Bill Turner.

Langley said Davis didn't seem interested in Glynis Gore, the other finalist for the job who was a former district attorney.

Later Wednesday evening, Davis called in to the radio program to deny that Harrison ever had been his first choice.

In fact, he said, she was his third.

"This is all stuff we're going to have to know," explained Bonner-Santos, the aspiring pediatrician.

On a recent afternoon the bespectacled boy with braces pored over eight medical terms he missed on a 25-question quiz designed to prepare members of the Health Occupations Students of America club for an upcoming competition.

He chuckled a little after realizing one of the terms he missed, "rrhea," means "discharge or flow." In addition to nailing down the medical terms, Bonner-Santos plans to don a navy blue blazer, dark pants, white dress shirt and tie at the competition in Los Angeles, and give a five-minute speech on why he favors therapeutic cloning.

"It seems to me there are a lot of opportunities that could come with it for paralysis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease," he said of his topic.

His mother, Jeannette Bonner, drives all the way from Natomas to bring her son to the school, a decision she made only after considering its mission - and its location.

"I work for the Sacramento Police Department, and I had a major concern about that area," she said of the neighborhood at the west end of Broadway that has endured more than its share of crime over the years.

"But I had to consider a lot of factors." After numerous meetings with school officials, she was satisfied that her son would be safe and even more sure that he would be motivated.

"The curriculum is just kick-butt," she said.

After dozens of community meetings, the school's relations with i...

When she refilled her contraceptives on Nov.

Reading the slur prompted a panic attack, she said.

"I started crying and I ran to the drawer to get a pill to calm down," she said.

"I talked to my psychiatrist.

All my fears came out.

Everything I always thought came out - that nobody likes me and everybody talks about me." Initially too embarrassed and humiliated to confront anyone about it, Cutler said she avoided the store where the entry was made.

Then in February her doctor called in a prescription to the store, but it would be weeks before Cutler could get it because the pharmacy repeatedly told her they didn't have it, according to the lawsuit.

When Cutler finally went into the store on March 14 she discovered that the initials B.D.A.

were those of head pharmacist Adams.

She confronted Adams, she said, but he told her someone must have used his initials to somehow log into the system.

"But then he admitted that you needed a password to get in ...

and he blew me off and walked away," said Cutler, who now uses another pharmacy chain.
