Hypocrite? Party of 1? Your table is ready. It's one of those stories that only politics can offer up. A Utah lawmaker who voted for tough penalties for prostitution has been caught hooking up with an online escort.
But wait... There's more. GOP Rep. Jon Stanard resigned amid allegations that he used taxpayer dough to pay for hotel rooms to hook up with the online escort.
The DailyMail.com is reporting that call girl Brie Taylor says the former Republican state representative paid her $250 for sex twice at the Fairfield Inn in Salt Lake City.
In one exchange from November, Stanard asks Taylor if she could bring any “accessories” or “toys” — perhaps a “corset,” according to the news outlet.
House chief of staff Greg Hartley told the Associated Press that the married Stanard — who resigned Tuesday night.
