Prominent Idaho Falls Republican leader Blake Hall has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor stalking Friday afternoon. Idaho Falls TV By Staff & Aman Chabra, Local News 8 Reporter KIFI Idaho Falls, ID Popkey writes, "Until Monday, the Statesman had declined to run a story about Craig's sex life, because the paper didn't have enough corroborating evidence and because of the senator's steadfast denial." Apparently, to Dan Popkey and the Idaho Statesman, those denials by Senator Larry Craig at last ring hollow.The latest news on RNC member Blake Hall, an Idaho Falls, Idaho, lawyer is set out, below, in excerpts from two local TV News stations: Second, he was tired of Rogers picking on congressional staffers and offered him the chance to "out" a senator. A lifelong Republican, he recently had re-registered as a Democrat because he's angry with what he sees as the GOP's gay-bashing. He estimated the encounter lasted three or four minutes. The man said the sex occurred in two restrooms on a weekday afternoon. On May 12, two days before its interview with Craig, the Statesman finally interviewed Rogers' "best source," the man who says he is certain he had a brief sexual encounter with Craig at Union Station, which is two blocks from Craig's office. The Statesman also explored dozens of allegations that proved untrue, unclear or unverifiable. The Statesman also spoke with a man who said Craig made a sexual advance toward him at the University of Idaho in 1967 and a man who said Craig "cruised" him for sex in 1994 at the REI store in Boise. The 40-year-old man reported having oral sex with Craig at Washington's Union Station, probably in 2004. The most serious finding by the Statesman was the report by a professional man with close ties to Republican officials. Over five months, the Statesman examined rumors about Craig dating to his college days and his 1982 pre-emptive denial that he had sex with underage congressional pages. The Craig interview was the culmination of a Statesman investigation that began after a blogger accused Craig of homosexual sex in October. In an interview on May 14, Craig told the Idaho Statesman he'd never engaged in sex with a man or solicited sex with a man. But now, with Senator Craig's admitted arrest in June by an undercover officer in Minnesota for lewd behavior in an airport bathroom, and his subsequent guilty plea earlier this month to disorderly conduct, the Idaho Statesman and Dan Popkey apparently feel they can now release their report.
