Denver’s mayor “Hancock admitted to sending suggestive text messages to his female subordinate, Leslie Branch-Wise, during his first year as the mayor.[25] He acknowledged his behavior as “inappropriate” when the victim, a Denver Police Department Detective, gave an interview in 2018 to disclose the sexual harassment she experienced. By providing several suggestive text messages from Hancock, the detective provided a glimpse into the suffering she encountered during the time she worked for Hancock’s security detail in 2012. Following the Detective’s interview, Hancock issued a blanket public apology to the victim, his family and the people of Denver. Hancock explained, “I made a mistake. I’m human. I never purport to be perfect.” He called the circumstances “wrought with politics” and concluded, “It was just one of those things where I got too casual and too familiar, and I learned a lesson from that.” The city paid the officer $75,000 as part of a settlement.” Wiki

Gee, just like the U.S. congress does for its members who get into legal trouble for harassing employees. The pols never pay; the taxpayers always do.
