67. We had a mayor here in CT who did that. He paid a prostitute for her daughter and niece
to give him oral sex in his office. It was only discovered when the FBI was tapping his phone to get him on some corruption charges. They overheard him making arrangements with the woman. That guy is SO locked up!

Of course, he is a Republican.
