Alabama’s former top law enforcement official says Gov. Robert Bentley is having an affair with one of his top advisers and may have illegally used state resources in doing so.
Spencer Collier, the now-former secretary of the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, first made the detailed affair allegations Tuesday at about the same time he was fired for what he says was his refusal to obey the governor's order to stay out of a major public corruption case. It’s unclear which came first, and Collier he says he learned he was being terminated from social media.
The dismissal's alleged connection to the long-rumored affair and pending corruption case set off a local media firestorm that's slowly attracting national attention.
At a well-attended press conference Wednesday, Collier doubled down on his allegations, saying “everyone in the inner office of the governor [and] most everyone in the legislature” knows about the alleged affair. Bentley’s wife of 50 years filed for divorce last year but did not say why.
At a late afternoon press conference of his own, Bentley denied having an affair with the senior staffer, but said he was sorry for making inappropriate comments on one occasion two years ago.
Adultery remains a misdemeanor in Alabama, but has a one-year statute of limitations and almost never is prosecuted. Critics of the governor, including Collier, however, say he may have committed more serious crimes by using state or campaign resources to support an affair.
