Roberts resigned as DeRidder’s mayor one day after authorities began investigating a complaint that she had raped a minor. Her resignation letter omitted any mention of that investigation.
She later made $75,000 bail to await her trial from out of custody.
Misty Roberts in 2018 made history by becoming the first woman ever elected as mayor of DeRidder. She won a second four-year term in 2022.
I’m impressed it was actually called rape in the headline.
Not a man. Not a Republican.
Which is one of the reasons it’s “newsworthy”
As gross as that is.
That’s a good point.
She doesn’t identify as a republican so they can call it what it is.
