Assault At DeLay Press Conference Under Investigation

The 69-year-old woman who was pushed and had her hat pushed down over her head did by a DeLay supporter during a Lampson press conference earlier this spring, in fact, end up filing a report with police over the incident, as the Houston Chronicle reports that the the local PD is investigating the affair.

This is something quite interesting:

The probe has taken an unusual twist, because the man who has been named in the alleged assault is Ken Dexter, the foreman of the Fort Bend County grand jury.

Dexter, 55, who ran for county tax assessor-collector in 2004 and lost, was out of town and could not be reached for comment Friday.

Marsha Rovai, the woman who said she was assaulted, filed a complaint last week with police, saying she was pushed and that someone pulled her hat down and knocked off her glasses.

Police said Rovai filed a complaint but said no one was named as an assailant, said Sugar Land spokesman Doug Adolph.

If I recall correctly, wasn’t there a video tape that showed all this?
