*ALLEGED* Violent Rapey Sex Criminal Rod Jetton Dissolves Lobbying Firm

by Jim Newell  

HAVE SOME WINEFormer Missouri House Speaker Rod Jetton, who was arrested Monday night for allegedly beating the fucking shit out of a ladyfriend during a case of BDSM gone wrong — possibly because he had roofied her, which made it super hard for her to say “green balloons” during the fifth or sixth donkey punch and/or choking episode — has dissolved his lobbying firm, Jetton and Associates. According to a statement, he wants to spend more time with his family HAAHAHAH OH YES SURE YOU DO DIPSHIT.

Also, his firm was actively lobbying while he was House Speaker, which doesn’t sound illegal at all:

Former House Speaker Rod Jetton sent an aftershock through Missouri’s political terrain Tuesday, saying he will close his political consulting firm to fight a felony charge that he assaulted a Sikeston woman.

Jetton “will be leaving politics to deal with false allegations and spend time with his family,” said his attorney, Stephen Wilson, in a written statement. “He is confident that when the facts of this case are heard, he will be found innocent.”

Formed in 2004, the same year Jetton was elected speaker, Jetton and Associates eventually became one of the go-to GOP political shops in the state because of his connections in the General Assembly.

Anyway we just posted this as an excuse to show the police photo, obvs.

With assault accusation, Rod Jetton’s political world unravels [Kansas City Star]

Has anyone bothered to ask his family if they want to spend more time with him?

Judging by the mug shot and the photo with the original item, Missouri women have really good taste in men.

imissopus December 9, 2009 at 4:17 pm

Jetton “will be leaving politics to deal with false allegations and spend as much time with his family as possible before he’s shipped off to prison to spend several years unwillingly re-enacting his crime from his victim’s point of view,” said his attorney.

Joshua Norton December 9, 2009 at 4:17 pm

He’s trying for that Bloggo “freshly laid” look. He’s failing miserably.

Neoyorquino December 9, 2009 at 4:17 pm

His family must be thrilled. He spent some time with his ladyfriend and look what happened to her.

What Fresh Hell is This? December 9, 2009 at 4:18 pm

Missouri love company.

Extemporanus December 9, 2009 at 4:18 pm

Great! Now he’ll have even more time to focus on his true passion: banning “deviate sexual intercourse”.

My god that is the scariest photo I have ever seen.

I can’t believe the poor woman in question didn’t know he would get rapey. I feel like this post just pinched my ass.

slappypaddy December 9, 2009 at 4:21 pm

what, is his family going to prison, too?

Jim89048 December 9, 2009 at 4:21 pm

I hope to fuck his wife knows the safe word.

Texan Bulldoggette December 9, 2009 at 4:21 pm

[re=474979]Decker[/re]: My thoughts exactly. Hope his wife knows his safe word, as she’s taking the meat tenderizer mallet to his dick.

And, when did Nathan Lane move to MO?

memzilla December 9, 2009 at 4:21 pm

“He is confident that when the facts of this case are heard, he will be found innocent” = “He is confident he can buy off his roofied lover.”

whiskey tango foxtrot December 9, 2009 at 4:35 pm

People Of Earth: do not do any of this. Do not roofie your mistress and punch her and rape her and then scold her for not using the safeword. Furthermore, do not harbor really obvious conflict-of-interest scams for years. And if at all in doubt, do not live in Missouri.

These instructions should be relatively easy to follow. Instead of doing these things, you simply, you know, don’t do them.

I’d recommend that he take a page from Mark Foley. Blame it on alcohol and unresolved sexual abuse issues regarding priests and childhood. Shifting the blame away from oneself is the way to proceed in this case.

What is it with asshole who smirk during their mug shots? It’s one thing if you were arrested for protesting something; it’s another entirely to assault a woman and then act like the entire thing is a hilarious prank that you got caught up in.

You Wonk-offs and Dumbocrats don’t get it, to a Republican deviant sex is when the woman does the punching and choking. I think that should clear things up.

[re=475073]coolcatdaddy[/re]: well, we should all take heart: while Missouri House Speaker, Ron Jetton
removed a …state lawmaker from his committee chairmanship in 2007 because the lawmaker had changed a bill in order to end a state ban on gay sex — or what Jetton called “deviate sexual intercourse.”
Can’t have teh gheyz you know.
He wrote in an op-ed:
“Thanks to that [deletion of lines from the bill], it is now legal to engage in deviate sexual intercourse with someone of the same sex here in Missouri. This law had been on our books for decades.”

Shifting the blame is the way to proceed in every case. The only question is where to shift the blame. I’d say he should blame it on the gay muslins. That will get the teabaggers going, and they’ll follow along lock-step. Or, in the teabag fashion, they’ll gladly put his TruckNutz right in their mouths.

from http://blogs.kansascity.com/crime_scene/2009/12/update-former-mo-speaker-accused-of-assault.html

“An attorney for Rod Jetton says the former legislator is not guilty of the assault charge from Sikeston, and moreover, plans to defend himself vigorously.” THAT should be a pretty sight.

First he’ll go out in the kitchen to get a glass of wine for the jury, and then settle down on the couch with them. Later that night…

[re=475605]oldguy[/re]: I remember when my congressman, Donald “Buzz” Lukens defended himself against charges of statutory rape with a 13 year old black girl. (He was a late 50s white man, from Middletown, Ohio). He admitted that he’d done the nasty with her, many times, between her 13th and 16th years. But he’d done nothing wrong! Somehow it was OK for *him*. I suspect Jetton (and a lot of our politicrooks) think along those lines.
