No apology from lawmaker charged with punching wife in face

[gracchus]

The way Michele McLeod’s much longer and more elaborate statement accepts some blame—“While Doug nor I claim to be perfect, the twisting of information has misrepresented me and the truth”—is especially creepy.

I guess that’s a big “no” on her taking this opportunity to DTMFA.

Republican lawmaker "punched wife in the face" for not getting undressed fast enough when he wanted sex

Sounds like he’s destined for great things in the GOP, maybe a posting in the current White House. McLeod’s wife said her husband was drunk and “just snapped,” as he often does when under the influence of alcohol, the report said. I hope she’s in a position to leave that abusive boozehound.
