A Pennsylvania state lawmaker who says a fellow lawmaker pulled a gun on her and threatened to kill her has gotten a restraining order against him.
State Rep. Tarah Toohil alleges that fellow Republican Rep. Nick Miccarelli pointed a gun at her in 2012 and on another occasion, when the two were in a car, warned he would crash the vehicle while speeding 100 mph on a highway, The Citizens’ Voice reported .
A Luzerne County judged granted the restraining order Friday, barring Miccarelli from contacting Toohil and prohibiting him from possessing firearms.
He has not been charged with any crime and denies the allegations. He called them “complete fabrications” in a March 1 Facebook post.
Toohil also claimed that Miccarelli pinched, kicked, and hit her, and even forced himself on her sexually.
Apparently the two had an affair at one point and this Miccarelli guy just got married, so this could just be a lover's spat and Toohil is making it all up.
Or it could simply be that Pennsylvania mating rituals involve a lot of domestic violence and gun play.
This, plus that Saccone guy, just insured the Pennsylvania gets added to my "Never going to visit" list.
