Lawmakers deny park ranger's "making out" report

Source: KARE

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Two Minnesota lawmakers Wednesday vehemently denied a Dakota County park ranger's report that they were "making out" in a car in Eagan.

Rep. Tim Kelly of Red Wing and Rep. Tara Mack of Apple Valley drew the nuisance citations Aug. 25 from Dakota County Parks Ranger Jordan Moses, who encountered them in a parking lot at Lebanon Hills Regional Park in Eagan.

Moses told Kelly and Mark that they were double parked, because of the way their two cars were aligned. Kelly disagreed with Moses and took a photo of the cars. Moses subsequently issued them both public nuisance citations.

The public copies of those citations identify the cars involved, and the time of day, 4:30 p.m.. But they don't include the officer's notes. But another court document, a case register obtained by the St. Paul Pioneer Press, included a briefing notation by Ranger Moses. "Was making out with female in car. When I approached the female's pants were unzipped and pulled down."

So, fumbling around in the dark for the car keys?

(p.s.: both Republican)

I'm reasonable confident the ranger knows what making out is.

Kelly said he had had simply met Mack to receive some documents when an officer approached their vehicle about a parking violation.

I have heard it called a lot of things but that's a first. Anyway, sounds painful.

I will not bother but I am sure both of them were and are still "family value
Christians." In the past I bet they were against gay rights, planned parenthood,
and sex ed.

Would demonstrate a little more imagination on the part of the officer. OTOH, it is not a creative writing assignment.

hide a woody like that. Maybe he deployed the old "let the shirt tail cover up the evidence" trick.
