Democratic Kentucky state Sen. Julian Carroll was officially removed from his position as minority whip Sunday following a local news report that alleged the lawmaker groped a male staffer in 2005.
The Senate Democratic caucus formally voted to remove Carroll and called for him to resign his office, according to a Spectrum News report.
“In light of recent media reports, the Senate Democratic Caucus has voted to remove Senator Carroll from his leadership position as minority whip,” Senate Democrats said in a statement. “The Senate Democratic Caucus calls on Senator Carroll to resign his Kentucky State Senate seat, immediately.”
The lawmaker allegedly told local photographer, Jason Geis, he would help him get into art school and then groped him, before propositioning him for sexual favors, according to a recording provided by Geis.
“I want to be your friend,” Carroll said to Geis in 2005. “But you know what I want don’t you? I want to be relieved.” The then-75-year-old lawmaker ordered Geis to “jack me off.”
The aging Democrat then told the aspiring photographer to provide him oral sex before cautioning “I don’t want you to do anything you don’t want to do.”
Carroll has yet to publicly address the allegations made in the report, but he told local reporter Rick Storm that the claims were “ridiculous” and that they “never happened.”
Gee. Another aggressive, molesting homosexual achieves status, position and power within the Democratic Party. Bewildered that he being asked to resign.
Is he organizing pizza parties too?
Democrats’ response: “Hey, at least he didn’t grab a pussy!”.
This wouldn’t surprise me if it did happen. But I am always skeptical of claims made so far removed from the incident. I never believe them if it is a Republican accused (especially that People reporter who accused Trump of sexual inappropriateness, so many years after the supposed ‘incident’)
A Republican would have at least groped a female.
Probably because he’s done it before and done it his whole life with no repercussions
12 years after the alleged fact. So we are talking about an 87 year old man being removed from office? Somehow, this seems anti-climatic, no pun intended.
Why did it take 12 years for this to surface?....................
Male staffer, well there ya go.
It took 12 years for him to ‘get it up’....................
There, fixed it for you!
Regards,
Agree! Normally this kind of behavior is a career enhancement for a DemocRAT!
I don’t know, seems like “whip” would be a perfect job for him.
I no longer practice any resemblance of PC .... gender is a grammatical construct, not a physical one.
Let's take back our language.
That is something we CAN do, loudly and continuously !
“........he would help him get into art school and then groped him, before propositioning him for sexual favors,”......
Seems there is a lot of that going around in DC, guess odumbo made his mark and opened the door for such acts to occur. More “swamp” cleaning needed.
“Democratic Kentucky state Sen. Julian Carroll was officially removed from his position as minority whip Sunday following a local news report that alleged the lawmaker groped a male staffer in 2005.”
I thought they approved of that sort of behavior.
This was in 2005 when nobody had even heard of Obozo and it was in the Kentucky legislature.................
