From the same CNN some of the inglorious history of Congressman-page scandal:
Rep. Gerry Studds, a Massachusetts Democrat, and Rep. Dan Crane, an Illinois Republican — were censured following their admission they had consensual sexual relationships with 17-year-old pages.Neither lawmaker resigned, but Crane was defeated for re-election in 1984. Studds survived the scandal and continued to serve in the House until retiring in 1996.
Studds’ affair was of a homosexual nature, while Crane’s was hetrosexual (I note that only for factual clarity and no other reason).
