Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green had sex with a staffer who he said was a drug addict and then sued her when she threatened to go public with claims she suffered a hostile work environment, saying he will not be extorted or blackmailed.
Lucinda Daniels, his onetime district director, claimed she suffered a hostile work environment, claimed sexual harassment and demanded $1.8 million. Green sued her, saying she was using their sexual relationship to shake him down at the behest of other unnamed conspirators.
Daniels has threatened to go public with her complaints if the Congressman does not per her money. Green has done nothing wrong and refuses to pay hush money just for political expediency. Green will not be extorted or blackmailed by Daniels. He will not be the victim of a shakedown by Daniels and her agents. Green demands vindication of his actions and now sues Daniels for declaratory judgment relief relating to her workplace allegations and her quest for money, documents Green filed in federal court in 2008 say.
Daniels also unknowingly dialed the congressman while she was allegedly buying cocaine. Green submitted the voicemail, now sealed, as evidence in the case.
In the recording, Daniels is heard snorting the cocaine immediately before questioning whether it was cut with some other substance and being assured that it was straight off the ki[lo] Daniels asks for the purchase price of the drugs, which she calls her Tuesday special price. In response, the drug dealer sells her the drugs for $40.
Green said Daniels act[ed] sluggish at work as through under the influence of drugs and slurr[ed] her speech as if under drug influence. He claims she fell asleep on the phone in the middle of telephone conversations with staff and the Congresswoman and had a general appearance of incoherence at times due to apparent drug use.
Lucinda Daniels, the staffer, claimed she suffered a hostile work environment.
Green confronted Daniels on the drug use and suggested she seek treatment. Not long afterward, Daniels claims the Congressman retaliated against her in the workplace because of her gender and because she refused additional romantic requests. Green rejected her claims as false.
Though the case apparently went unnoticed, Greens office put out a preemptive statement Monday in conjunction with Daniels saying:
In the present climate, we wish to jointly quiet any curious minds about our former and present relationship with one another. We are friends, and have long been friends. At an unfortunate time in our lives, when both of our feelings were hurt, we hastily made allegations and charges against one another that have been absolutely resolved.
This matter has been resolved without payment of any money or transfer of any consideration of any kind by either of us to the other. As friends, we have both agreed that we see no need to make further statements regarding this absolutely resolved matter.
I LOVE it that hes caught up in all of this. He is really pathetic.
So why no mention that he is among the six Dems filing impeachment articles against Trump?
Go get him, Lucinda.
I wish I could say his story is unimpeachable...
You can take the feral out of the ghetto.... but you cant take the ghetto out of the feral.
have to question the moral fortitude of the congressman on this...sounds to me as two bad people going at it.
I would love to see this clown go down. Harry Truman is said to have referred to a prominent Pubbie with a description that Green probably deserves: “The son-of-a-bitch is no good.”
Lucy McEvil, wonder what your game is ?
Impeach the scumbag!
Yeah, yeah, honest I do
And I'm guilty, baby
On being untrue
What you heard
Through the grapevine
Every word it's true
Now the blame's all mine you all
I'm guilty
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah
I'm guilty, guilty, guilty
Baby, I'm guilty of this crime
I don’t care what anyone says, his songs are AWESOME!
Is this clown Al Green the singer? Say it isn’t so!
No. They are two totally different guys. But it’s good for a laugh.
I am convinced now that Lucinda scored cocaine for Al, and then he hopped in the sack with her.
Snorting and sporting....getcha every time!
No. Different Al Green.
Caveman look-alike used caveman tactics.
