\"\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Last year, we talked a bit about Kevin Haggerty<\/a>, the Pennsylvania State senator who leaned heavily on his service in the Marine Corps during his campaign for office. It turns out that most of Haggerty’s time in the Marine Corps, he spent as a deserter, according to his records;<\/p>\n

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. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, Haggerty denied that and claimed that he was honorably discharged and the voters believed him and put him in office.<\/p>\n

Well, we got a message last night that his wife has applied for an order of protection<\/a>;<\/p>\n

State Rep. Kevin Haggerty\u2019s wife filed for a protection-from-abuse order against him in Lackawanna County Court on Friday.<\/p>\n

A court document indicates Jennifer Haggerty filed for the PFA against Haggerty, D-112, Dunmore, and a hearing on the matter is scheduled before Judge Patricia Corbett on May 31 at 9:15 a.m. No further details were listed.<\/p>\n

Corbett confirmed the filing involved the state representative when contacted Friday night. County Sheriff Mark McAndrew said deputies served Haggerty with PFA paperwork Friday.<\/p>\n

Kevin Haggerty did not return messages seeking comment. Jennifer Haggerty declined to comment when reached Friday night.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This fits with most valor thieves – they are sociopaths who can’t function properly in civilized society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
