Idaho Senator arrested in airport bathroom for lewd conduct
Senator arrested in airport
Associated Press - August 27, 2007 6:54 PM ET
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Court records show that Idaho Senator Larry Craig pleaded guilty earlier this month to misdemeanor disorderly conduct after being arrested in June at a Minneapolis airport.
A court docket from Hennepin County shows Craig pleading guilty to the disorderly conduct charge on August 8. In return, the court dismissed a charge of gross misdemeanor interference to privacy.
Records show the veteran Republican senator was fined $1,000, plus $575 in fees. He was placed on unsupervised probation for a year. A sentence of 10 days in the county workhouse was stayed.
The story was first published today in Roll Call ... a Capitol Hill newspaper. The newspaper's Web site says Craig was arrested by a plainclothes officer investigating complaints of lewd conduct in the men's room at the airport.
In a statement issued today, Craig sys he was not involved in any inappropriate conduct.
Craig, who is up for re-election next year, says at the time of the incident he complained to police that - quote - "they were misconstruing my actions."
Craig says in hindsight he should have pled guilty ... but was - quote - "trying to handle this matter myself quickly."
