Burnsville, MN – Doug Wardlow, Republican candidate for Minnesota Attorney General, released the following statement in response to the Minnesota DFL investigative report regarding domestic violence allegations against Keith Ellison:
“As predicted, the sham ‘investigation’ led by the DFL party attorney’s legal partner has concluded in favor of the party’s Attorney General candidate. But the publicly available evidence contradicts that conclusion.
“Karen Monahan’s allegations are substantiated by documentary evidence and a witness. Ms. Monahan’s son, Austin, has seen video evidence of Ellison’s physical abuse of Monahan, and he also witnessed the traumatic effects that the abuse had on his mother. Ms. Monahan also released medical records that detail what she told her doctors about Keith Ellison’s abusive behavior.
“Former Ramsey County Attorney Tom Foley called for a criminal investigation into Ellison’s conduct. Foley, who also cited Amy Alexander’s claim of domestic violence by Keith Ellison, said that ‘the Monahan abuse claims constitutes sufficient credible evidence requiring an immediate criminal investigation.’
“Mr. Foley is correct. The credible and substantiated domestic violence claims against Keith Ellison demonstrate that he is unfit to be Minnesota’s Attorney General.”
