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?
