>>Spokane Mayor Accused of Molesting Two Boys
(Spokane, WA) -- The mayor of Spokane is under fire following Thursday's "Spokesman-Review" news story alleging Jim West molested two boys when he was a sheriff's deputy and Boy Scout leader. Court documents obtained by the newspaper reveal the victims claim the molestation took place in the mid-70s. During the three-year-long investigation, the paper alleges West used his position to offer gifts and an internship to a young man he met online he believed was 18-years-old. It was actually someone working for the paper. West admitted to having private relationships with adult men through the gay.com website, but calls the molestation claims "lies." West told the "Spokesman-Review," he offered an internship to a young man he met on the Internet. He issued an email to Spokane municipal employees and the city council apologizing for his "lack of judgment." Despite the scandal, West vows he will not resign.

Regardless of West's sexual orientation, gay rights groups slammed the mayor for repeatedly speaking out against issues supporting gay marriage, civil unions and anti-discrimination legislation for homosexuals in housing and employment.

I really couldn't care less what gays do because it doesn't effect me at all. They can get married, go to DisneyWorld, or star in a snuff flick for all I care, I really don't give a shit. So when I see someone who is extremely anti-gay, I assume that anger is directed at their own gay feelings. Why else would they possibly care what other people do in the privacy of their bedrooms?

>>Spokane Mayor Faces More Allegations
(Spokane, WA) -- Spokane Mayor Jim West is facing two new allegations. According to the "Spokesman Review," Brad Crelia claims he was approached by Mayor West when he was a 15-year-old student at Lewis and Clark High School in Spokane. He says West asked him a question that he interpreted as an invitation to go out on a date. West was serving as state Senate minority leader when the alleged incident occurred in 2001. A second man says he was 12-years-old when he went on a 50-mile hike with his boy scout troupe in 1980. Jim West and his friend, fellow Spokane County Sheriff's Deputy David Hahn, were in charge of the troupe. The unidentified accuser says Hahn molested him in a tent. When he told West what happened and asked to be moved to a different tent the accuser says West told him to forget it. Hahn committed suicide a year later. This is just the latest in a series of allegations that started with child sex abuse. He is also accused of misusing of his office to meet young men in a gay internet chatroom.

>>More Controversy Around Mayor

(Spokane, WA) -- More controversy is emerging around Spokane's Mayor, Jim West. Channel Five News reports, the latest allegations are from Spokane City Councilwoman, Cherie Rogers. She claimed West confided he sexually gratified himself in his city hall office, during an online chat on a gay Web site. In spite of a press release that later said there was a "miscommunication" between West and Rogers, the council woman is now sticking to her original story and calling for West's resignation. The mayor is already dealing with allegations from adult men who claim he molested or acted inappropriately with them as children. He denies the accusations, but does not deny having relationships with men. Spokane officials are investigating.
