EXCLUSIVE: 30 Sources Expose Sexually Explicit Evidence of Harassment by Ohio GOP Rep Wes Goodman

Source: Independent Journal Review

Note: This article contains graphic content.

Disgraced Ohio State Representative Wes Goodman — a Republican — in the wake of the lawmaker's recently-revealed sex scandal and resignation is being accused by dozens of people of sexual misconduct. IJR has obtained testimonies from over 30 individuals who have had inappropriate and never-before-shared experiences with Goodman.

Goodman, who always campaigned on “family values,” recently made headlines for all the wrong reasons — he was caught on Tuesday having consensual sex with another man in his office.

Ohio State Speaker Cliff Rosenberger (R-Clarksville) was quickly notified and, in turn, asked Goodman to resign from his position — which he did. But many people have long been aware of Goodman's inappropriate sexual behavior; behavior that is very different than his married “family man” persona, IJR has learned.

Goodman has a reputation of reaching out to those involved in politics via Facebook messenger — but things tend to quickly turn south as he has been known to flirt with men, solicit sex, and even send pictures of his genitals, according to dozens of sources. The majority of the people he targets are between the ages of 18 and 24 and have had very little interaction with him personally.

Liberals are so lacking in morality that they clearly corrupted this God fearing family values conservative who felt lonely and bored while his wife was asleep. He wanted to mentor young males during the March for life in ways that won't result in pregnancy or abortion.

More pro-lifers really should support gay rights for that reason.

I do think, however, that once they have been spit-roasted to the point that Goodman has, or that monster Shortey (talk about the most on-the-nose name possible). it's time to move on to others. Let's not waste resources on those who have already received the coup de grace.

That being said, my schadenfreude needs occasional care and feeding.
