For those of you making light of this, shame on you.
He was accused, not convicted and not even charged. And we’ve seen what happens when men in public office are accused of sexual misconduct. Presumed guilty and not even provided the opportunity to prove their innocence.
So in the end he executed himself.
Prayers for him and his family.

The guy sounds like he was a real loony-tune, with a life story filled with a lot of embellishment and some outright fabrications.

The Rat Party has unleashed a monster that will be hard to control.Of course it's easy to believe accusations against vermin like Weinstein and other showbiz pigs but charges against public office holders must be viewed with enormous caution.
My attitude has been,since the charges were lodged against Judge Moore,that accusations against Republicans are lies until proven otherwise.
Remember folks,Dirty Harry claimed that Romney hadn't paid taxes in years.After the election he proudly proclaimed that it was a brilliant lie that resulted in Romney's defeat.
And also remember that DJT was said to have hired a hooker in Moscow...

His suicide letter is compelling, and he is steadfast in declaring his innocence. We live in sad times- We live in a time where guilt or innocence is beside the point. He knew his public life was over whether or not he had done anything wrong. He couldn't face as life of endless harassment and accusation.
Sad times indeed.

My Christmas wish is for all FReepers to read the actual article. A republican he was accused of drunkenly trying to kiss and feel up some 17 year old girl.

Shot himself on a bridge.
He obviously had a Plan B.

We’ve been here before, but it was so long ago that nobody remembers. February 1692 to May 1693 in Massachusetts.
