Re: Democrat sex offender Rick Staples.

A woman who recently interacted with Staples while visiting the 
legislature told the USA TODAY NETWORK - Tennessee the actions come 
after she brought forward her concerns that the lawmaker 
inappropriately touched her.

The woman, who is not being identified by the USA TODAY NETWORK - 
Tennessee because she is a victim of harassment, alleged that 
Staples grabbed and held on to her waist while standing behind her 
after he had made inappropriate comments about her appearance.

The woman is involved in Democratic politics in the state and said 
Staples had made inappropriate remarks to her on previous occasions. 
But she decided to move forward with a complaint most recently since 
she said Staples touched her inappropriately.

“My first day doing anything in politics, one of the very first 
things I heard was not to be alone in a room with Rick,” she said in 
an interview.
