He said he was going to Oklahoma to be deputy campaign manager for Istook's gubernatorial effort, according to the Web site. Edmund registered to vote in Oklahoma in March, records show.
An Oklahoman who was a page while Foley was office recalled that the congressman asked his roommate when he was going to be 18 years old.
Brad Wilson, a student at the University of Oklahoma law school, was a page during 2000 and 2001 and worked half of that time in the House cloakroom, where members go to use the phone and get messages.
Wilson, 23, told The Oklahoman that he spoke several times to Foley and that the former congressman never said anything suggestive or inappropriate to him.
However, he said, "It was like a running joke (among male pages) to look out for Foley,'"'
No one in an official position in the House or the page program ever specifically gave the pages any instruction or warning regarding Foley, Wilson said.
"We just picked it up on our own," he said.
Another former page from Oklahoma, Bryce Chitwood, said he remembered Foley always offering a handshake "or just pause for a moment for conversation with a page.
"To think that that was happening while I was there, and I had so much respect for him, really makes me sick to my stomach," Chitwood told KOCO-TV in Oklahoma City.
