Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales long tried to duck questions about an alleged affair with a former aide who died by suicide, but that strategy has now brutally backfired.
Gonzales ignored requests from local news stations—who were even uninvited from an event the married Republican was attending—for months after the scandal surfaced. He also dodged the scandal when cornered on camera, likely hoping the issue would disappear until after his primary.
