Roberts resigned as DeRidder’s mayor one day after authorities began investigating a complaint that she had raped a minor. Her resignation letter omitted any mention of that investigation.
She later made $75,000 bail to await her trial from out of custody.
Misty Roberts in 2018 made history by becoming the first woman ever elected as mayor of DeRidder. She won a second four-year term in 2022.
I’d just like to point out that they used the correct term “rape” here. All to often news outlets will say something like “sex” or “affair” or some how blame the victim.
Kudos for calling a spade a spade.
It is wild cuz even Margerie Taylor Greens broken ass clock is right more often than the media
