Outgoing Idaho senator Larry Craig has lost his latest appeal to withdraw a guilty plea after being caught in an Minneapolis bathroom sex sting. According to the Associated Press, Craig's appeal was rejected by a three-judge panel of the Minnesota Court of Appeals on Tuesday morning.
The senator was arrested in June 2007 for disorderly conduct after he was accused of soliciting sex from an undercover police officer in a restroom at the Minneapolis airport. He initially pleaded guilty and paid a fine, but he attempted to withdraw the plea once his arrest was made public.
Craig's attorney, arguing before the court in September, said the evidence was insufficient to find him guilty.
[Like you thought I would leave this one alone. Ha! I can't resist.]
