Cryan Shame

From the NY Post:

The new majority leader of New Jersey’s state Assembly sounds like a horny adolescent in e-mails to a fetching former Jon Corzine staffer about what turns her on, according to papers filed in court.

Joe Cryan, a longtime Union County lawmaker who takes over the Assembly on Tuesday, won’t talk about allegations he had a sexual liaison with the staffer, Karen Golding, The Post’s Jennifer Fermino reports.

But Cryan, who was divorced at the time, had plenty to say to the politically connected brunette in a string of suggestive e-mails and late-night voicemails, according to new court documents. “If it was massaged on right, then blown on just right, would that, well, turn you on?” Cryan asked Golding in a Feb. 18, 2004, e-mail.

Golding pleaded guilty to stalking Cryan in 2007, and the e-mails were recently released in court papers during her unsuccessful bid to have the plea thrown out. She wants the court to take into account her relationship with Cryan — which she claims led to her becoming pregnant and having an abortion — when she is sentenced later this year.

In another message he sent Golding on the same date in 2004 that was introduced in court, he asked, “Do you dance? Dancing brings nice images,” according to Morris County Superior Court documents.

Later, when the alleged relationship apparently soured, Golding fired off e-mails to Cryan accusing him of hiding his drinking from her and lying to her “for a b - - - job.”

Golding wants the court to return her computer, which she claims has “countless sexually explicit and pornographic e-mails” from Cryan. Prosecutors had initially said she didn’t have an “intimate relationship” with Cryan, but are now saying that whether they had sex was “irrelevant.”

A lawyer for Cryan said, “Whether or not two single consenting adults had any type of relationship provides absolutely no justification for Miss Golding’s decision to stalk and terrorize [Cryan].” Golding’s lawyer had no comment.


So far no New Jersey news outlets have covered Cryan's emails to Golding. I wonder how they would cover the story it involved a Republican.
