RUFUS - Just hours after House Speaker Gretchen LeWolf announced that the House is pushing an impeachment inquiry against embattled Senator Joey Rigg, the Senate leadership has announced that they will try to remove him from the Senate. Both the Senate Majority and Minority leader have agreed that he needs to step down from the Senate amidst his ongoing sexual misconduct legal battle.

"We are very aware of the gravity of the ongoing situation with Senator Rigg," said Senate Majority Leader Larry Cofelt. "Both the Senate Minority leader and myself know this and are working quickly to find ways to remove him from his position in a legal and constitutional manner. Whether that be through impeachment, or through a continuing Senate resolution to keep him "suspended until the next election is held."

Senators who support his removal vary from members of the Nationalist Party as well as the Republican party. Senator Benjamin Morris(R-NS) said that no person should be subjected to sexual assault of sexual misconduct.

"We don't condone that as Republicans and more so as human beings with wives, sisters and daughters," said Senator Morrison. "While we don't know the entire story, it is safe to say that Judge Lisa Davis, a Republican appointed judge mind you, found that there is a real case here. It concerns me that remaining in power will allow him to abuse his power as a Senator to gain a sexual advantage on others. He must go."

Senator Rigg, was accused by an American prostitute of inappropriate touching that she said was not discussed nor consented to. According to a complaint and lawsuit filed in a Jesstopian federal court, she claims that the two participated in sexual activity but when she wanted to leave, he forcibly put his hand down her skirt, and made crude and disparaging comments to her.

For the first time since the lawsuit was filed, Victoria Danesh, the prostitute who was sexually assaulted by Rigg, is speaking out and has expressed that she can not discuss certain things related to the investigation, lawsuit and legal proceedings.

"It was traumatizing. It was uncalled for. It was inappropriate," said Victoria Danesh. "The things he said, which unfortunately are not allowed to be said until the trial will forever be engraved into my brain. He is a monster with unchecked power, that he should not have access to. My hope is I get the 15 million, and he is 15 million poorer. He belongs in jail, away from any female in this country."
