Yet another Senate/page scandal
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061114/...d_page_scandal
(yet another politician and a sex scandal!)
PIERRE, S.D. - A state senator accused of sexual misconduct with an 18-year-old page resigned Tuesday rather than be judged by his colleagues, but said he intends to show up for the new South Dakota legislative term that begins in January.
Democrat Dan Sutton's lawyer said the lawmaker did not want to be judged by a lame-duck Senate in a special session led by some of his political enemies.
The session had been scheduled for Nov. 27 to look into allegations that Sutton groped a male high school student who served as a page. Lawmakers could have expelled, censured or otherwise disciplined or exonerated Sutton.
Despite the allegations, Sutton, 36, was re-elected last week to a new two-year term with 57 percent of the vote.
The new Senate seated in January can take up the issue.
Sutton's lawyers have said he did nothing wrong. No criminal charges have been filed.
The scandal arose while Congress was investigating Mark Foley's sexually explicit computer messages to male pages. The congressman resigned over the furor.

I mean I dunno, I'm a 19 year old girl and not an 18 year old boy, but I wouldn't have touched these guys with a 10 foot pole. Like, I could see myself being swayed (maybe easily?  ) by a handsome, charismatic older man (like say, George Clooney, haha) but these guys? ...eugh.
