		<description>Politicians are scum!  Having said this, why is it so difficult to behave in a manner that would be above reproach?  The guy made himself a target.  Had he kept his hands to himself, nobody would have been able to use his apparent misbehavior against him.  He was not sent to Sacramento to hang out at drunken partys.  If he is as innocent as you claim Barbara, why has he not proclaimed this fact?</description>

America Children First is a conservative right wing factious extremist group who is a cancer on society as a whole.  They seek out and destroy anyone who rejects on any level their personal philosophies and political agendas.   I guess that Devon Mathis did not toe the line so he must be destroyed at any and all costs.  I am not a Devon Mathis supporter.  I have not nor will I ever vote for the man.  But I do believe as a fellow American that he is entitled to the presumption of innocence until verifiable facts NOT allegations prove him not to be.  A word of caution……..unless you too follow the practice of seeking out and destroying those who disagree with you…….keep in mind who is behind the “outing” of these allegations.  This group freely admits to waging war in the most extreme manner toward those GOP Representatives and Senators who do not vote as they are told to vote or say what they are told to say.  How can anyone trust anything they say when they have no sense of honor or humanity.  The actions of this group and others just like them are now apparently sanctioned by the current Republican Party.  This appears to be a political hit job and Devon Mathis is the intended target.  I don’t believe in coincidences and this has a terrible smell to it.</description>

		<description>Beyond Reproach - This is a position that a leader should always strive to keep him/herself in.  Sacramento is a sewer but whether I chose to believe he is &quot;innocent&quot; until proven guilty, it&#039;s just difficult given the seriousness of the allegations.  SMH</description>

In this country one is considered innocent UNTIL guilt is proven.  When it comes to allegations that is all they are....ALLEGATIONS!  Allegations are not proof.  I can no more prove his innocence  than you can his guilt.  It is up to a DA to make the decision if there is enough evidence to go forward.....not you or I and most definitely not the news media or an extremist group whose has made their agenda well known.</description>

Thank you for confirming to me that my opinion of you is correct.  Let&#039;s hope that you are never called for jury duty to sit on any trial no matter where the jurisdiction is.</description>

		<description>First, this took place in Sacramento, so it will not be charged here.  Clearly, this man is only there cause he couldn&#039;t figure out a better way to make a living.  If he is in fact innocent, why is he not shouting from the ramparts as it were?  He makes a good deal more than many of his constituents, so he&#039;d better explain himself.</description>

You would make a lousy pick to be on a jury......your mindset is &quot;guilty until proven innocent&quot;.  Bad form!!!!!</description>

		<description>Then why has he not publicly and loudly proclaimed his innocence?  The fact that there is an open police investigation is a pretty good indicator that he is not entirely innocent.</description>
