Facing allegations that he groped women in incidents dating back over three decades, Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger apologized Thursday for behaving “badly,” but also denounced the report as “trash politics.”
Gov.-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger will hire an investigative firm to look into allegations by several women that he groped them but may refuse to allow California’s attorney general to review it, a spokesman said Thursday.
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Tuesday that an independent investigation of pre-election allegations that he groped and sexually harassed women isn’t necessary because “the people have spoken.” He said he is focused on solving the state’s fiscal problems.
Tens of thousands of California sex offenders would be forced to wear electronic tracking devices for the rest of their lives under two new bills backed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The bill, which boosts punishment for a wide range of sex offenses, “will give California the strictest laws and the toughest penalties for the worst crimes,” he said Tuesday. “We want these criminals off the streets and away from our schools and children.”
