Florida Rep. Alan Grayson’s Ex-Wife Alleges Domestic Abuse

HeadlineJul 26, 2016

Politico is reporting Florida Congressmember Alan Grayson’s ex-wife repeatedly went to police with accusations of domestic abuse over a two-decade period. The revelations come as Grayson enters the final weeks of his Democratic primary campaign for Senate. Politico reports Lolita Grayson called police at least two times in Virginia and two more times in Florida, and that she sought medical attention on at least two occasions. She says that Grayson threatened to kill her on at least one instance. Alan Grayson denies he engaged in any abuse during the couple’s 25-year marriage, which ended last year in a bitter annulment that she is now appealing.
