Brian Ellis, a Republican Pennsylvania representative who was accused of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman, resigned on Monday.

"It is with immense gratitude to the sacrifices made by my family, the support of my constituents, and the friendship of my colleagues that I have concluded that it is in the best interests of my family, the residents of the 11th House district, and my own health that I resign from the General Assembly," Ellis wrote in a letter to House Speaker Mike Turzai on Monday, according to a local affiliate of CBS News.

1. He raped an unconcious woman. I think it is BS they don't call it for what it is.

2. I'm all for bashing the media when they downplay shit, but their description is probably worse

"he drugged and sexually assaulted a woman" sounds pretty damn bad, gotta say ...

3. Fish rots from the head first

They see Trump getting away with crime on a daily basis and that intoxication from power makes them think they will get away with it too.

5. And, now, go to prison

You criminal ... say goodbye to all of what you cheated to have.

6. needs a prosecutor

I didn't see any mention of a rape kit when she went to Holy Spirit hospital, in the description given in the formal complaint. A prosecutor needs to bring criminal charges against Ellis and start gathering some evidence.

7. "Was that wrong?"
