those whacky republicans!
CONCORD, N.H. — A former state lawmaker charged with trying to lure a 14-year-old girl (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/n-h-lawmaker-lure-girl-14-released-bail-article-1.2557249) into a sexual encounter also smoked marijuana in the Statehouse and sold the drug to several other legislators, but there wasn't enough evidence to charge them with drug crimes, the attorney general said Friday.
Former state Rep. Kyle Tasker, a 30-year-old Republican, resigned in March after his arrest on three unrelated drug charges and a charge of trying to lure a minor for sex. He and his lawyer haven't commented on the charges, and his attorney didn't immediately respond to an email seeking comment Friday.
According to Attorney General Joseph Foster's report, a state police review of Tasker's iPad and Facebook activity led investigators to four state representatives: Democrat Amanda Bouldin and Republicans Joseph Lachance, Pamela Tucker and Ted Wright.
