Who Do You Go To to Get a Read on the Ethics of This?

Police in Stratford, Conn., arrested a man after he mistook a woman in the parking lot of a hotel for the prostitute he had ordered online. The woman sprayed him in the face with pepper spray. Her boyfriend was nearby and saw the commotion, and ran over and sprayed the man in the face again with his own can of pepper spray. The couple was helping him get the irritant out of his eyes when police arrived, and he allegedly admitted he was waiting for the “shy Latina” he had ordered, specifying he wanted a massage with a “happy ending.” Shortly after, the man announced to the media “I will not resign.” He is Dr. Noel Kayo, 39, a cardiovascular researcher and a commissioner on the Bridgeport Ethics Commission. After things blew up in the media, Kayo did resign from the commission. (RC/Connecticut Post) ...So Kayo didn’t get a “happy ending,” but voters did.
