COLUMBUS, Ohio — A state Supreme Court justice running for Ohio governor volunteered candid details of his sexual past on Facebook, saying Friday that he was taking a swipe at the “media frenzy” over sexual misconduct. “So I figure let’s just get it out here on Front Street right here and now,” he added, referring to the street where the Supreme Court building sits. “As an attorney, I’m appalled at these remarks of a Supreme Court Justice,” she said. “As a Democrat, I’m horrified a statewide candidate would belittle victims of sexual harassment and assault this way. And, as a woman, I’m outraged he would equate sexual assault with indiscretion.”Sutton’s call followed by a day her unveiling of a plan to combat sexual harassment and sexual assault in state government, where two state lawmakers have resigned amid sexual misconduct allegations in about a month’s time.
