Turns out State Sen. Kris Jordan won’t be facing criminal charges. And just who is Kris Jordan, you ask? He's a Republican state senator in Ohio. He hates taxes, loves the NRA, and, oh yeah, seems to have a little drinking-and-getting-violent-with-his-wife problem.
Sen. Jordan, a Republican from Powell, told deputies that he and his wife had argued over his not cleaning their condo. Cruiser dashboard camera recordings released yesterday detail the deputies’ conversations with the Jordans.
“She got a little upset,” Sen. Jordan told a deputy on the recording. “Girls do that.”
The 34-year-old senator went on to say the incident was “90 percent emotion.”
“I threw some things on the ground, but I didn’t hit her or anything,” he said. “So she’s all worked up about who knows.”
Oh, those gosh darned girls, getting all emotional, the way they do. No wonder the esteemed state senator from Powell has to drink and get violent sometimes.
[His wife] also was recorded as saying violent incidents with her husband began about two years ago, sometimes after he had been drinking. She said her husband had been drinking that night but not to excess.
“This is not new,” Mrs. Jordan, 31, said. “He’s done this numerous times, and I just got sick of it and I just had to call.”
Imagine, a wife getting sick of her husband's drunken violence and finally calling the cops on him. The way girls do. But hey, at least he didn't hit her this time. Quick, someone give this guy a medal!
After all, according to his own press releases, he is a "proven advocate for family values." By which he means, apparently, that he's great at knocking back a few and then knocking around his wife. Because, you know, hypocritical Republican "family values" advocates do that.
