OLYMPIA, Washington: A Republican state legislator resigned Wednesday amid revelations that he had sex with a man he met at a pornographic video store while in Spokane on a party retreat.
The move comes days after state Rep. Richard Curtis insisted to his local newspaper that he was not gay and that sex was not involved in what he said was an extortion attempt by a man last week.
But in police reports, Curtis alleges he was being extorted by a man he had sex with in a Spokane hotel room. The other man contends Curtis reneged on a promise to pay $1,000 (€692) for sex.
A Republican successor will be chosen by county Republican leaders, and will serve until the 2008 election.
Curtis, 48, told police he was the victim of an extortion attempt by Cody Castagna at the posh Davenport Tower hotel on Oct. 26, search warrant documents said. Castagna, 26, told police that Curtis had agreed to pay him for sex, then reneged.
Curtis is married and has children, according to his legislative Web site. Elected to the state House of Representatives in 2004, he voted in 2005 and 2006 against a bill that granted civil rights protections to gays and lesbians, and in 2007 voted against a bill that created domestic partnerships for same-sex couples. Both measures eventually passed the Democratic-controlled state Legislature and are now state law.
Curtis was among state Republican lawmakers in Spokane Oct. 24-26 for a retreat to discuss the upcoming legislative session. He went to the Hollywood Erotic Boutique early on Oct. 26 and met Castagna, who accompanied him to the hotel, police documents said.
The two arrived at the hotel around 3:30 a.m. and had sex, after which Curtis fell asleep, according to documents released Tuesday.

What is up with Spokane Republicans? First Mayor Jim West, now this fruit!
yuck , I pity his family.
Homo RINO in video no-no?........
Feel like I need to disinfect my keyboard now.
Hey, the former GOP Mayor of Spokane, Larry Fag, and now this guy. Lovely.
What if it was an extortion attempt? Can’t you imagine, especially given his voting record, someone making such a claim against the guy? I’d refrain from comment until we hear from the wife.
But, I don’t think he’s wise to resign, not at all!
MSNBC was absolutely GLEEFUL about this today.....did then even talk about the child molester RAT down South somewhere.....???
” I’d refrain from comment until we hear from the wife.”
I hope you’re kidding.
Hey, be nice now! Washington State produces legendary, world-class serial killers, sodomites and Marxists, as well as innumerable combinations thereof.
What else do we have to proud of?
Oh yes, I forgot....the scenery is pretty and we produce nice apples, cherries and wines.
"sigh".

Didn’t he say in a police report that he did have sex with the guy?
Nothing, I suspect. People who would vote for her are already so far left that they'd probably feel virtuous for supporting a lesbian.
Don’t forget, Washington State gave us “Grunge”.............
Pubbie Queers should know that public knowlege of their “activities” means the end of their career and public disgrace and humiliation.
OTOH, Demo Homos get a free pass and public acclaim.
Oh yes, I can't forget that....I was a passionate record collector until Grunge came along and spoiled much of my interest in music. It didn't help that I 'was' a very good friend of one of the originators of Grunge and fell out with him because I had the temerity to suggest that Grunge was only recycling old ideas and was not representative of anything new or particularly unique....such informed honesty was not appreciated and the stoat was kicked to the curb.
The entire decade of the 90's remains virtually unrepresented in my Rock collection section.
So were the local Portland TV stations. They went into the lurid details of this guy wearing women's underwear, etc. Sick stuff, but you know if were a dem, they'd be soft-pedaling it, if reporting on it at all.
