Judge Rules Against Craig
Oct 4, 2007 at 2:23 PM by Political Chase
From Reuters:
A Minnesota judge on Thursday refused to let U.S. Senator Larry Craig take back the guilty plea he made after a sex sting arrest, making it likely the Idaho Republican will resign his Senate seat as planned.
Judge Charles Porter of the Hennepin County District Court ruled a week after Craig’s lawyers contended at a hearing that he had panicked and had been rushed into pleading guilty after an undercover officer arrested him in an airport men’s room.
Craig has said he would resign from the Senate but might reconsider if he could take back the plea and try to clear his name.
