How partisan is AG Van Hollen? No action taken on the Ken Kratz misconduct case.


This story didn’t get the kind of attention it normally would have, due to the massive attention directed at the legal wrangling’s of the Walker administrations attack on the American worker, but it should have.

Stunningly unresponsive and sexist, state Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen decided that “boys will be boys” in the Ken Kratz sexual misconduct case. Conservatives have an odd way of dismissing outrageously bad professional behavior as “it wasn’t illegal.” The following facts suggest something else.
jsonline: The state Justice Department released 150 pages of documents Friday that shed new light on prosecutors' findings that a former Calumet County district attorney repeatedly displayed sexually suggestive behavior at the office, but that it wasn't illegal … it does not plan to charge Ken Kratz with sexual assault or misconduct in office after investigating claims from more than two dozen women who alleged Kratz sent them sexually suggestive messages.
Two dozen!!!??? I know conservatives are held to a completely different standard when it comes to sexual misconduct in office, thank you David Vitter and Mark Sanford, but this is just as over the top bizarre:
One woman told investigators she asked Kratz for help in getting pardoned for a drug conviction and that she was "freaked out" when he texted her asking how she would "please him between the sheets," the Appleton Post-Crescent reported … A Calumet County social worker said Kratz sent her "creepy" emails, including one in which he wrote, "You can either flirt with me or not - you can't have it both ways." According to the documents, Kratz also boasted about his work on several dating sites, including Match.com,Craigslist.com and Singlesnet.com. 
Kratz, 50, resigned in October after The Associated Press reported he had sent 30 text messages trying to strike up an affair with a domestic abuse victim while he prosecuted her ex-boyfriend on a strangulation charge.
Kratz tried to have sex with a domestic abuse victim seeking his help!!!!

It looks like J.B Van Hollen is too busy protecting us from “voter fraud” this Tuesday and protecting a valued friend.
