Democratic State Representative Jason Bartlett, who's district includes Bethel, Danbury and Redding, was arrested on several motor vehicle charges after being pulled over in Newtown.
Newtown Police Sgt. Dominic Costello says Bartlett was pulled over by an officer who saw him driving while speaking on his cell phone, without a hands free device. After a short investigation, the officer determined that his registration had expired and his license was suspended.
Costello did not know why Bartlett's license was suspended. Bartlett says he will be releasing a statement about the incident this afternoon.
I also read that he had no insurance.
Luckily, he also sponsored a bill entitled An Act Implementing A Statewide Support Program for Bicycling (HB 6219). It's going to be a hefty ride from Danbury to Hartford, as those two cities are about an hour apart. Especially in winter.
Suspended license?
DWI? Hit and run? Unpaid tickets?
Child support?
I knew the moment there was no party affiliation in the title that he was a Dem.
Please check the first word of sentence.
"National Black Justice Coalition Hires Jason Bartlett, Connecticut State Representative as Deputy Director. By Justin Smith, Sr. Correspondent H. Alexander Robinson, Executive Director and CEO of the National Black Justice Coalition, has announced the hiring of Connecticut State Representative Jason Bartlett (D-2) as the new Deputy Director of NBJC. Jason Bartlett was the first openly gay African American state legislator.
Wow. Triple play: 1. Democrat 2. openly gay 3. African American. Looks like the cop will be in trouble for profiling.
Yep. He’s a three-fer.
Well he has an excuse for driving with no current insurance or registration tags, his license was suspended so he didn’t need to keep his car street legal.
A leftist state catches one of the leftists responsible!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
