Make sure to read this article from the Cleveland Free Times’s James Renner.

Here is a portion:

Dann has not yet explained why Utovich was transferred in January at the same time Stout was moved out of the building. A spokesman for Dann told the Free Times it was Simpson (friend and former editor of Alyssa Lenhoff, Dann’s wife) who thought Jessica should be transferred, because “it was time for her to move on.” Stout says it was Lenhoff herself who demanded the transfers. In her interview, Jennifer Urban - who calls herself Jessica’s “best friend” - suggests Stout’s version is more accurate.

“My understanding of why she got transferred was because the Right Angle Blog [a popular righty blog] came out with a story … that she and Marc Dann were having an affair, and she needed to be transferred because of that story. And because of the allegations and Alyssa and how she was reacting to the story, she needed to be moved from the floor.”

When Dann was asked about the transfers in his first interview with investigators, on April 22, he said he didn’t know if the two were related. As the interview went on, it became obvious that he was being very careful about any answer he gave that dealt directly with his lover. Asked directly if Utovich ever spent the night at his apartment, he said, “I don’t know, because I wasn’t - I was barely at the apartment.”

Lefty bloggers criticized and mocked me after I broke this story (see here, here, here and here for examples- The stories they made up about me delivering pizzas and being killed by Leo Jennings are quite funny.). They will never apologize, but I take comfort in the fact that I’m always right, have excellent sources, and would never make up such an awful story about ANYONE! I have far too much respect for women and wouldn’t have besmirched Jessica without cause- Besides, she isn’t the story. The real story was that Ohio’s chief law enforcement officer is a dirtball who hired unqualified cronies to run his office. And affairs open up public office holders to potentially serious problems, especially blackmail.

Does this officially make me Ohio’s Matt Drudge? Hardly, but I’m happy to have played a part in the demise of a hyperpartisan headline-seeking lawsuit-crazy scheduler-screwing unethical unqualified Attorney General.
