A "private" videotape of the Virgin Islands' delegate to Congress, Democratic Rep. Stacey Plaskett, which showed her husband naked and wearing makeup, was posted online Wednesday night but later removed, the freshman lawmaker said in a statement Thursday. A topless "selfie" of Plaskett also was being circulated.

Plaskett said in the statement that her computer had been hacked and someone copied personal "photographs and a private family video" of her and her husband, Jonathan Buckney-Small.

The video shows a naked Buckney-Small wearing makeup as Plaskett films it, according to news reports and sources who have seen the recording. Plaskett is heard speaking to her husband in the recording. One of the couple's childen makes an appearance in the video as well, according to the statement.

The video was initially described to POLITICO as a "sex tape," but Plaskett aides disputed that characterization of the recording. A Virgin Islands news organization described it as a "bizarre video."

Election year, and something like this magically appears online from out of nowhere, and the GOP opponent is grandstanding? Something reeks...

1. Hackers can also be political operatives. Nothing on a computer or a phone is ever private.

2. Consenting adults can do what they want. Just like the increase in porn viewing in Cleveland now.

4. Totally agree that consenting adults can do what they want.

However, the article mentions that one of the couple's children appears in the video as well. That sounds more than a little off to me. Do what you want sexually, but keep kids, yours or someone else's, out of it.

6. Who knows how far the video

Is taken out of context and it could be completely innocent. It isn't too abnormal for little kids to see their parents undressed.

7. I'd agree with that.

Hell, I showered with my dad sometimes when I was very little, especially when we were on the road and wanted to get going early.

But kids showing up in what's described as a "sex tape"... context is everything, and the article wasn't clear. It may have been later in the video. But if they were having sex or involved in any kind of sexual situation... yeah, kinda gives me the creeps.

8. I'd have to see context before making that judgement...

Besides, if it was something really improper, I'm guessing that video would have found its way to the police or at least child services...

9. Agreed, context is everything, especially since the article gives no real info.

But yeah, if there were anything improper, I'd like to think that someone would have notified the proper authorities. Consenting adults can do whatever they like to each other, but keep children out of it.
