The idiot of the week feature never seems to run dry for content, sadly. There seems to be a married (straight) conservative politician every week who campaigned for "Family Values" and "Ant-gay marriage" who are uncovered either with prostitutes, money laundering, child pornography, adultery, etc. In this case, Utah GOP Rep. Jon Stanard, husband and dad of 3, who voted for tougher penalties for prostitution (and is rabidly anti-gay), just resigned amid allegations he used TAXPAYER MONEY to pay for hotel rooms to have sex with a hooker twice. She outed him because she realized he was such a hypocrite. Here's the report from KUTV in Salt Lake City, Utah:
(KUTV) — DailyMail.com reports that former lawmaker Rep. Jon Stanard,(R-Dist. 62), who resigned from his position on Tuesday citing "immediate personal and family concerns," met with a Salt Lake escort twice for sex.
Stanard was elected to the Utah House of Representatives in 2012. He resides in St. George and is married with three children.
The 43-year-old former state
representative voted in favor of stricter laws on prostitution in March
2017. The penalty for soliciting sex is $2,500 and a Class A
misdemeanor because of the passed legislation.
As a Mormon, Stanard could face severe
punishment including ex-communication. The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints has a stringent stance against adultery, likening it
next to murder.
If convicted for
engaging in prostitution, Stanard could be charged with a $2,500 fine.
Taylor could also face charges as the bill Stanard voted in favor of
makes it easier for authorities to prosecute escorts.
INTERVIEW WITH THE PROSTITUTE WHO OUTED HIM:
Brie Taylor is the self-professed escort
that Stanard solicited. She stated to DailyMail that Stanard paid her
$250 for each one-hour sexual session on two separate business trips to
Salt Lake City, which took place in June and August.
Text
messages obtained by DailyMail.com appear to show that Stanard met with
the 39-year-old after seeing her advertisement online and looking at
her website.
The phone number these text
messages were sent to match the phone number listed on Stanard's public
profile on the Utah House of Representatives website, the DailyMail
reported.
The DailyMail reported that Taylor is a
single mother and quoted her saying Stanard's political stance is
"hypocritical" and that his resignation was "inevitable."
"People here will be grossed out and appalled by this," Taylor said in the DailyMail article. "They thought they knew him."
Taylor told the DailyMail that she was surprised to learn he voted in favor of stricter [prostitution] laws."It
is hypocritical because he is supporting laws that make it stricter for
other men who do what he does," Taylor is quoted in the article.
PHONE NUMBER/TEXTS CLINCH IT: Cell
phone screenshots shared with the DailyMail appear to show
correspondences between Stanard and Taylor lasted from March 2016
through November 2017. The exchanged
messages displayed in the article show Stanard requesting a meeting with
Taylor, but she declined because her 10-year-old son was ill.
According
to the DailyMail, Stanard allegedly messaged her once more the
following month, but she was again unable to get together with him.
However, they did meet June 20, 2017, at the Fairfield Inn in Salt Lake City, the article reported.
Taylor
told the DailyMail that she knew who Stanard was because she screens
all of her clients using a phone number service and search engine.
"I
was surprised that he was using his real phone number," Taylor was
quoted in the article. "I thought that was kind of stupid but I knew he
wasn't a psycho so I met him."
