Well, That’s One Way To Get Out of the House
Kentucky Republican state representative and former GOP candidate for governor against Democrat Matt Bevin in 2019, got released from his home the hard way. Robert Goforth upholds Republican values.
Goforth, 44, was arrested on first-degree strangulation, fourth-degree domestic violence and third-degree terroristic threatening charges about 3 a.m. Tuesday.
The alleged assault happened about 1:30 a.m., the Louisville Courier Journal reported. The woman completed paperwork for an emergency protective order, and she told deputies that Goforth tried to “hog tie her,” according to the Courier Journal.
Police said the man attempted to strangle the woman with an Ethernet cable.
There were three small children in the house at the time of the assault.
The Kentucky Republican reaction is that they “just been made aware of these charges and do not know the facts related to this case.”
Ethernet cable. Hog tie. Children in house. Strangle marks on the woman’s neck. Not the first time this guy has had an assault charge leveled against him. Are y’all waiting for a confession?
And during the Ether Season.
1Damn!!! I hope the victim recovers completely in every way possible. Most likely her recovery will get an uphill boost when the perp is permanently behind bars. As for the Republican reaction, here’s the translation: this guy is so toxic we wouldn’t touch him with a 100 foot pole.
2Oldie but still good: IOIYAR
3The movie Thelma and Louise was right. Texas just ain’t the state you want to be an assaulted woman in.
4So much for the Lord’s admonishment:
5“Go Forth and Sin No More”. One can only hope and pray that
Mr. Goforth has committed his violent third strike and finds himself subject to being hog tied his ownself.
Matt Bevin was actually the incumbent Republican governor of Kentucky that was defeated by Democrat Andy Beshear.
6Well, Holly, that’s embarrassing. Now my brain is playing catch-up. Sorry, guys.
7And the icing on the cake is the perp’s amazed expression in his mug shot. Maybe the cops can explain how he got there.
8msb, that amazed expression is because he’s a Republican. They aren’t expecting to suffer consequences.
