Oregon Governor’s Fiancee Admits To Sham Marriage

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber’s fiancee admitted Thursday that she violated the law when she married an immigrant seeking to retain residency in the United States.

Cylvia Hayes said in a news conference that she believes she was paid around $5,000 for the 1997 marriage. She said she was “associating with the wrong people” while struggling to put herself through college and regrets her actions.

“It was wrong then and it is wrong now and I am here today to accept the consequences, some of which will be life-changing,” Hayes said.

Hayes says she did not tell the governor about the marriage until a reporter from the Willamette Week newspaper began asking questions this week.

Kitzhaber, a Democrat, is seeking a fourth term next month. He met Hayes in 2002, and they confirmed in August that they were engaged.

Hayes was twice divorced and just shy of her 30th birthday when she married an 18-year-old Ethiopian man. She said they never lived together, met only a handful of times and have not had any contact since the divorce was finalized in 2002.

Though they have yet to marry, Kitzhaber refers to Hayes as the “first lady,” and she’s embraced the role of political spouse while continuing her work as an energy consultant. She’s been active in developing Kitzhaber’s energy and environmental policy. A story in Willamette Week on Wednesday said that Hayes has used her title as first lady and her role in advising the governor to advance her private consulting business.

Accept the consequences? The statute of limitations has expired for her

Yes, for her, it was 5 years. For the Ethiopian, it is likely the DOJ would interfere, from orders on high, and be able to remain here, and receive a job with ACORN.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

She committed a felony, but yes too long ago to prosecute. She didn't pay taxes on it either, we'll see if the IRS has anything to say.

The thing is, you now have to wonder what else she may have done, since she's willing to break the law for money. You also have to wonder about her using her role as first lady to further her business.
And lastly, was Kitzhaber really in the dark about all of this, or is there a cover-up now underway ?

If there's further investigation watch, the Dims will start playing the "war on women" card.

Interesting...the coverup aspect. But this all happening right when he is up for reelection should not bode well for his chances, unless they do play the war on women meme, as you mentioned and it brings him the Dem sympathy vote. Stay tuned.

Lobbyist sleeping in the governor's quarters, pretending to be a "wife," while promoting environmental interests?

Libertarian Republican

"This is happening a little late in the game. Mail ballots in Oregon's famously Democrat voter fraud prone system, have already been sent out. It's quite possibly Kitzhaber wins reelection, and then a few weeks later tenders his resignation, particularly if more details come out about the "consulting business." [ doubtful ]

Whole new story has broken this morning:

Cylvia Hayes scandal widens: KOIN reports she bought land in 1997 to grow marijuana

A new report of wrongdoing by Oregon first lady Cylvia Hayes emerged Monday night, with KOIN reporting that Hayes and a boyfriend bought a remote property in Washington state in 1997 to grow marijuana.

Hayes and the unidentified boyfriend put $15,000 down on a $245,000 property in Okanogan, near the border with Canada, KOIN reported.

The purchase occurred four months after Hayes' illegal marriage. Hayes gave up her interest in the property in 1998, and it went back to owner Patrick Siemion, KOIN reported. Siemion told KOIN that he found evidence of a marijuana operation.

In a statement to KOIN, Hayes said: "I am not proud of that brief period of time. I was involved in an abusive relationship with a dangerous man. We lived together for several months on the property in Okanogan that was intended to be the site of a marijuana grow operation that never materialized.

"I was never financially involved with it. I did not pay any part of the down payment or mortgage payments. I had no money. The money I had received in July 1997 for entering a fraudulent marriage was used as I have previously stated — to purchase a laptop and pay school expenses."

The news comes on top of reports last week that Hayes, fiancee of Gov. John Kitzhaber, may have improperly used her role as first lady to benefit her private consulting business and that she married an illegal immigrant in 1997 solely so the Ethiopian could get a green card. She tearfully apologized for the marriage in a news conference Thursday.

Earlier Monday, Kitzhaber asked the Oregon Ethics Commission to review Hayes' public and private work to see whether she broke any laws.

It's not clear how much damage the new report could do to the Kitzhaber campaign. The Democratic governor, seeking a historic fourth term, faces Republican Rep. Dennis Richardson in the Nov. 4 election.

Last week, political observers said Kitzhaber had been wounded by the news surrounding his fiancee but that he would probably still win. Kitzhaber gave a spirited defense of Hayes at a debate Friday before the City Club of Portland.

News of the Washington property comes on the eve of the next debate in the governor's race. Kitzhaber and Richardson will square off in KGW studios Tuesday night at 7 p.m. The debate, sponsored by The Oregonian and KGW, will be live-streamed on OregonLive and aired live on KGW.

Well, if they still have that land, looks like it was a good investment.

Interesting that some of the people that ran for governor in Oregon on the Republican ticket are presently residing in jail.

Craig Berkman - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Craig Berkman (born c. 1943) is an American venture capitalist and a Republican politician in the U.S. state of Oregon. He was known as a major donor in national Republican circles. He chaired the Oregon Republican Party in the early 1990s, opposing the far right Oregon Citizens Alliance. He ran for chairman of the Republican National Committee in 1993 and for Governor of Oregon in 1996, losing the former race to Haley Barbour and the latter to Denny Smith in the primary election.[1]

Berkman served as Oregon’s state Republican Party chairman from 1989 to 1993 and ran unsuccessfully for the Republican nomination for Governor of Oregon in 1994.[2]

He was arrested in March 2013 in the Tampa, Florida suburb of Odessa, where he has a $3.94 million home,[3][4][5] on charges of selling pre-IPO shares of Facebook.[6]

In June 2013, Berkman pled guilty to securities and wire fraud at the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York inManhattan.[4][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] On December 16, 2013, he was sentenced to 6 years in prison, and will be required to repay $8.4 million to investors.[14]

Bill Sizemore - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Bill Sizemore (born June 2, 1951) is a political activist in Redmond, Oregon, United States.[1]Sizemore has never held elected office, but has nonetheless been a major political figure inOregon since the 1990s. He is considered one of the main proponents of the Oregon tax revolt, a movement that seeks to reduce taxes in the state. Oregon Taxpayers United, a political action committee he founded in 1993, has advanced numerous ballot initiatives limiting taxation, and has opposed spending initiatives. Sizemore made an unsuccessful run for Governor of Oregon in 1998. He also announced his intention to run for governor in 2010, but was indicted by the state on charges of tax evasion.[2]

PORTLAND, Ore. - The state has accused Oracle of racketeering - among other things - in a lawsuit it filed Friday over the Cover Oregon fiasco.

Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum announced the state is suing Oracle and some of its executives for the failure of Cover Oregon’s $250 million website.

"Over the last three years, Oracle has presented the state and Cover Oregon with some $240,280,008 in false claims," the complaint reads. "Oracle's conduct amounts to a pattern of racketeering activity that has cost the state and Cover Oregon hundreds of millions of dollars."[and never got off the ground]
