Scott Robert Jones is the sheriff of Sacramento County. He is retiring in January, 2023. He is the sheriff behind the Netflix series “Jailbirds” and exploitative reality show featuring women prisoners in the Sacramento County jail. He has made two unsuccessful runs as a Republican for Congress, in 2016 and 2022. In 2022, he didn’t make it past the primary.
Nick Hermann was the County Prosecutor in Vanderburgh County, Illinois until he lost the Republican primary in May 2022. A likely contribution to his loss was the sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit brought against him that he settled. That and the $10,000 in controversial expenditures for lingerie and expensive lunches on his county credit card.
Angela Wozniak was elected to the New York Assembly, replacing Dennis Gabryszak, a Democrat who was accused of sexual harassment. She promised change. However, she was similarly accused less than a year into her term. Elias Farah worked for her. They had a consensual affair, but when he wanted to end it, she coerced into continuing, he claimed. She then banned him from working in the district office and Wozniak disparaged him.
“The ethics committee unanimously agrees that Assembly Member Wozniak retaliated against her director of legislation by tarnishing his reputation to the person who had recommended him, and through her counsel identifying him by name to the press as the complaining party, as well as making other statements to the press that are reasonably likely to harm the director of legislation’s reputation in express violation of the ethics committee’s explicit notice to refrain from any breach of confidentiality,” the ethics committee wrote.

David Wilson is a Republican senator from Wasilla, Alaska. If he had trusted the process when he was accused of sexual harassment, he would not be on this list. But he retaliated against the woman he was accused of harassing, making her fear for her job. Not cool. The woman never filed a complaint. The witnesses to the incident were the ones who brought it forward.
