Katie Hill’s Resignation Impacts Congressional Investigation

The sudden resignation last week of California Democrat Representative Katie Hill over her sex scandal means that she will not have to answer questions from the House Ethics Committee about allegations that she had a sexual relationship with a male congressional staffer.

In resigning, “Hill did manage to escape a full investigation from the House Ethics Committee, which generally shuts down any probes once a lawmaker leaves office because the panel no longer has jurisdiction,” The Washington Post reported. “Hill will never have to answer detailed questions about when her relationship started with her campaign staffer and whether it continued after she took office in January.”

The Post added, “She, and her aides, will not have to undergo inquiries into her ex-husband’s allegation on social media that Hill also had a relationship with a senior aide in her congressional office — something that became expressly forbidden when the House updated its rules in early 2018.”

The photo's her husband put on the internet are really good quality. He used a pretty good camera lens and it captured very sharp details. There is no question that it is her with the aid and the other woman. Hustler should hire him as a photographer!
