"Florida GOP Official Ziegler Accused of Bribing Rape Accuser"
Christian Ziegler, the suspended Florida GOP chairman, was recorded in police-controlled calls with his rape accuser, where he offered her money and repeatedly changed the subject to his haircut. Ziegler confirmed a past intimate encounter but denied any sexual misconduct. The Florida Republican Party has censured him, reducing his salary to $1 while retaining his title. The investigation also includes allegations of "video voyeurism" for possibly uploading images of the alleged rape. No criminal charges have been filed against Ziegler as the investigation continues, and the Florida GOP's executive board is set to vote on his removal as party chairman.
