Earlier today, we blogged about New York State Senator Ada Smith, who has been accused of assaulting a former aide by throwing hot coffee in her face and pulling at her hairpiece. We were then deluged with reader mail about additional misdeeds by Senator Smith.Here’s one representative message:
You should probably mention this in your ada L smith post: “Smith was also charged with biting a New York City police officer’s hand during a traffic dispute in 1998. In 1996, she was accused of threatening a former staff member with a knife. In both cases, Smith denied the charges.”
oh, and don’t forget the middle initial, i’ve personally been reprimanded for such a demonical offense.
Another reader directed us to this article, which mentions that Smith has “been accused of threatening a staff member with a cleaver.” And check out these song lyrics, an Ada-licious reworking of a Britney Spears classic.
In sum, Senator Ada L. Smith is far more insane than we originally reported. We regret the error.
