More On Ed Barber and The Sexual Charges

As discussed earlier, Ed Barber, the head of my county's board of supervisors, has been charged with sexual assault on a minor.

Here's And Another Thing's discussion about Mr. Barber's prior history.

Here's a more indepth discussion about the charges (thanks Milbarge), to which the defense seems to be that it's the outcome of a family fight. I don't yet know whether this is going to be a case with actual physical evidence or one of those where it goes in front of the jury on the theory of "Why would she lie?"
