Disgraced former San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, driven from office by allegations of sexual harassment, was charged Tuesday with felony false imprisonment and two counts of misdemeanor battery.

The felony count alleges false imprisonment "by violence, fraud, menace and deceit" but does not elaborate on the circumstances.

The victims were identified as three Jane Does.

Filner, 71, resigned in late August, succumbing to intense pressure after at least 17 women brought lurid sexual harassment allegations against the former 10-term congressman. He had been on the job less than nine months into a four-year term and was San Diego's first Democratic mayor in 20 years.

3. All too recently he was clutching his job and denying there was a problem.

I read that after he returned from his supposed "treatment" ( a whole 2 weeks of it) he marched back to his job
annoucing everything was fine and dandy and he was going to continue as Mayor.
No problems here, no sirree.

No doubt it DID take "intense pressure" to crowbar him out of his chair.
