Re: Democrat sex offender Kathleen Vinehout.

State Sen. Kathleen Vinehout, a Democratic candidate for governor, 
says she doesn't believe people will find anything objectionable in 
a character reference letter she wrote for a legislative attorney 
found guilty of possession of child pornography.

Vinehout’s letter, printed on her official state letterhead and 
dated Nov. 11, 2015, describes Lovell as a "hardworking, 
intelligent, persistent, dedicated public servant" with 
"extraordinary diplomatic skills." Lovell was the Legislative 
Council staff member assigned to a committee she chaired for four 
years. Vinehout worked with him on that committee and in several 
other instances, during which he "went above and beyond the call of 
duty in his work."
