Republican Official Admits To Sexting Teen Boy, Says He Isn’t Gay

Ex-mayor of Kenner Louisiana, and current president of Jefferson Parish, Mike Yenni (R), says although he made “improper texts” to a 17-year-old boy, he is “not gay.”

Mike Yenni is married and a father ...
“It was something that I can’t explain why I did it,” he offers.

The texting scandal started when a story emerged in a 2014 article titled “I was seduced by a politician” in student news website The Tab.

The un-named author of that article, a Brown University student, claims that he was part of a sexual texting exchange with a politician who he names only as “Kevin.” The story goes on to say that “Kevin” gave him underwear and kissed him.

Yenni admits to meeting the college student in-person serendipitously, ”not a scheduled meeting," he says.
Yenni blames others who he feels wanted to discredit him ...

Let Mrs. Yenni know.

2. He's right. He isn't gay. Most male child molesters are not gay.

The RW would like you to believe that gay men go out and molest young boys. That is a lie.

This Republican's story is an example that shows that male child molesters aren't gay.

5. THIS

Many child molesters were molested as children. That may be the case with this guy. Still no excuse as many victims don't molest as adults. We all have choices.

So, saying he's not gay is a weak defense since there is nothing wrong with being gay, but there is definately something wrong with trying to entice a child into a sexual relationship with an adult-regardless of the genders of either the adult or the child.

FBI looks into JP President Mike Yenni's allegedly explicit texts to young man

The FBI has been looking into allegations that Jefferson Parish President Mike Yenni sent sexually explicit texts to a 17-year-old he first noticed at a high school function last year.

The youth who received the messages said Yenni, who was then the mayor of Kenner, first saw him at a function at his high school, a local Catholic institution.
He said a mutual friend, who was 19 at the time, helped Yenni connect with him.

The youth said he and Yenni began to talk on the phone and text one another, and soon, the politician came to visit him at his job at a mall food court. They met in a bathroom, the youth said, and Yenni gave him some designer underwear. They kissed briefly.

........ skip ........

“... Yenni tells the teen he wants him naked.”

Days later, Yenni writes to ask the 17-year-old if he’s worn the underwear Yenni bought him. Yenni says he wants to see him model it.

Then Yenni texts the teen to say he wants to perform a sex act on him that night.

While the youth was initially flattered and intrigued by Yenni’s overtures, he said the texts and phone conversations began to make him uncomfortable, such as one proposing three-way sex with him and the 19-year-old mutual friend.

“He asked me to go with him to his house in Oxford (Mississippi),” the youth said. Records show Yenni owns an apartment there.
