No, I definitely don’t “need to get back to” that. His two broadsides at me were a surprise and a time suck.

I do admit that if I hear credible rumors that the reason that a witness called out police to investigate an act of domestic violence (specifically kneeing a pregnant wife in the stomach) by a sitting legislator, and that photos of her bruises were taken and then suppressed by the police, then I reserve the right to — NOT write about it based on those rumors alone (which I didn’t), but to turn in a public records request trying to find out whether those rumors had any basis in fact.

That’s what I did. Then FFFF, and then, with greater force and scope, Moxley, attacked me for taking an initial, low-profile, step to see whether the rumored evidence even existed. Yeah, I’m sure that you think that that makes seen him seem highly sympathetic.
