Jim Gibbons Assault probe reopens-Ruh-roh

Nev. Congressman Assault Probe Reopens

By RYAN NAKASHIMA
ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS (AP) - The district attorney said Monday that authorities have reopened their investigation into a cocktail waitress' claim that a Republican congressman running for governor assaulted her in a parking garage after a night of drinking.

District Attorney David Roger said the case involving Rep. Jim Gibbons - which had been closed after the woman, Chrissy Mazzeo, dropped her complaint - is under investigation again.

Mazzeo, a Las Vegas Strip casino waitress, accused Gibbons, 61, of pushing her up against a wall Oct. 13 and propositioning her. Mazzeo, 32, said she had been pressured and offered cash from people linked to the Gibbons campaign to drop the complaint.

6. From the beginning it looked like...

a police cover up. Maybe they lied about the tapes in an effort to get her to drop it.
