Sex-scandal prone Hollywood, it’s increasingly clear, has got nothing on the Florida Legislature.
This past week has brought its share of revelations about state lawmakers that, unfortunately, didn’t get the attention it deserved from what’s left of West Palm Beach’s corporate media.
Photos of Republican Senator Jack Latvala, who’s running for governor, kissing a woman — definitely not his wife — on a cheek then the lips after a late-night dinner popped up from what’s believed to be surveillance footage from a camera owned by a private investigator assigned to dig up dirt on lawmakers.
Senate Democratic Leader Oscar Braynon appeared to have been the target of yet another private eye prowling Tallahassee, and those surveillance videos from the hallway of his capital city condo building have yet to drop — this, at a time when, interestingly, the married Braynon says his colleagues should focus more on cases of sex harassment, not consensual sex between politicians.
And a week ago today Senator Jeff Clemens, a Democrat from Lake Worth, resigned after admitting to an extra-marital affair with Broward County lobbyist Devon West after a story by the out-of-state website Politico.
