[STARTRIBUNE] Minnesota state Sen. Scott Dibble| ... Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, LGBTxyz SJW... |
In his surprise statement, Dibble revealed that for the past five months he has been harassed by "a former friend."
"I was involved in a brief intimate and consensual relationship with this person," wrote Dibble, DFL-Minneapolis. "When I attempted to end the relationship, I was threatened with embarrassment as this individual attempted to coerce me into continuing the relationship. My resistance to his threats was met this morning with a communication that was sent to my colleagues with what had been private photos, videos, and text messages."
| This reminds me of Jerry Springer, back when he was the very popular mayor of Cincinnati. One fine evening he went across the Ohio river into the more interesting part of Northern Kentucky, and there paid a massage parlour "for services rendered" with a check that bounced. While this did not harm him locally, where he’d earnt his reputation as a character, the rest of Ohio apparently found him a bit much for governor or US senator. |
The man who sent those images has not been publicly identified but lives outside the country and isn’t a subordinate or connected with Minnesota politics in any way.
"This has nothing to do with his legislative work and I am not aware of any plans he has to resign," Anderson said.
