Early Reactions To Jetton Charge
Rep. Sue Allen: "I don’t know how my name got on [Jetton's client] list. He wasn't consulting with my campaign."
Rep. Shane Shoeller: Last night, Schoeller said, "If the allegations are true, he will have no place in my campaign...The allegations are serious and I'm taking it seriously." This afternoon, Schoeller said he "severed all ties" with Jetton's firm and its employees.
Speaker Ron Richard: "The allegations against former Speaker Jetton are extremely serious. I feel very sad for each of the families that have been affected. Right now, it is important to let the prosecutors, judge and jury begin their work to determine whether the charges are accurate. If the allegations prove to be true, Jetton should be prepared to accept the full legal and other consequences of his actions."
Sen. Rob Mayer is "shocked and disappointed," and says he hasn't paid Jetton any money since early this year.

Schoeller was Jetton's chief
Schoeller was Jetton's chief of staff in 2003. Jetton's ethical challenges ("release the money") have been well documented in both electronic and print media well before Schoeller hired him as a consultant.
Even I knew about them
Shame on Shane.
