As part of his plea to the people of his district, he leaned heavily on his service as a Marine. It seemed to work for him, because <a href=\"http:\/\/wnep.com\/2016\/11\/08\/haggerty-claims-victory-in-race-for-state-112th\/\">he won on election night<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The local media claimed that he had spent most of his time in the Marines as a deserter. As we didn&#8217;t have a FOIA at the time, we had to depend on the media&#8217;s work. Well, we got a FOIA on him now &#8211; it doesn&#8217;t change anything we wrote but. It does prove that most of his time in the Marines, Haggerty was a deserter;<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=69145\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-69145\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA1-257x333.jpg\" alt=\"Haggerty FOIA1\" width=\"257\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-69145\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA1-257x333.jpg 257w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA1-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA1.jpg 566w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 257px) 100vw, 257px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=69144\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-69144\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified-442x333.jpg\" alt=\"Haggerty FOIA Assignments clarified\" width=\"442\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-69144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified-442x333.jpg 442w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified-768x578.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/Haggerty-FOIA-Assignments-clarified.jpg 902w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 442px) 100vw, 442px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>He was AWOL from May 11th to June 10th 1997 he was dropped from the roles and declared a deserter on June 11th until he was returned to the Marine Corps on July 20th and sent to confinement as a result. In September he was discharged from active duty and a year later discharged from the Reserves. So he was on active duty for nine months and spent more than four of those months as a deserter or a prisoner. I don&#8217;t know how he got an honorable discharge, but he claims that he did.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe the voters can deal with him in two years since they didn&#8217;t get the opportunity to deal justice this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks ago we wrote about Kevin Haggerty, the fellow running for State Senator in &hellip; <a title=\"Kevin Haggerty, the AWOL Marine State Senator\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=69143\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Kevin Haggerty, the AWOL Marine State Senator<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":68861,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[89,184],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69143","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-congress-sucks","category-marine-corps"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=69143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69143\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/68861"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=69143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=69143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=69143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
