Eli Yokley must have been asleep at the switch. He then started tweeting about it yesterday, after the Star broke the story.

The 19 year old intern is a naive, easily impressed child who is one semester out of high school. Those who knew about this scandal and didn't take any action share the guilt. John Diehl is a sexual predator who has probably done this before but just didn't get caught.

It would seem this is acceptable for an older, married father of three in an elective office if the other party is an "adult" of 19. Really? I am appalled. This is abuse of power. It is sick.
