“Zachary Coile, a spokesman for the incumbent lawmaker, told California-based station KSBW that Stanley has already ‘submitted his resignation, ‘which was accepted by the Senator ‘because his actions yesterday were wrong and unacceptable."

Barbara Boxer Aide Marcus Stanley Busted For Bringing Pot into Senate Office Building

A local Chester County State Representative’s business manager Ms. Lisa Johnson is accused of; engaging in Criminal Conspiracy, Possession of a controlled substance, manufacture of a controlled substance with intent to deliver and the use and possession of drug paraphernalia. Her arrest and her alleged boyfriend and Coatesville Codes Officer John Tinson’s arrest followed a long investigation.

“We're trying to hold down the fort without her, but we'd welcome her back,’ said Hennessey.”

Codes officer, state aide waive preliminary hearing on drug charges

Marcus Stanley WAS a senior aide to Senator Boxer who walked into a Senate office building with marijuana in his pocket. He immediately resigned.

Ms. Johnson may or not be on the Commonwealth Payroll as Republican State Representative Tim Hennessey’s business manager in his Coatesville office. (Ask someone in Coatesville City Hall how long that Johnson's alleged boyfriend Coatesville Codes Officer John Tinson was paid and received benefits.  Was it until July of 2010?)

Mrs. Lisa Johnson was also Judge of Elections in Coatesville’s Fifth Ward in the 2010 Spring Primary. Keep in mind that she was arrested in January of 2010.  I believe that unless she is convicted before then, she will again be Judge of Elections in Coatesville’s Fifth Ward in the November 2, 2010 Election.

Ms. Johnson has a defense team of highly paid attorneys.  Paid for by? 

Her bail was $5,000 unsecured bail. In other words $0.00 bail.

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Lisa A. Johnson

Can you see what the difference is between being a Democrat in California and a Republican in Chester County, PA.? 

Ask yourself this; Wouldn't  a state representative in a close race want to distance himself from a staff member accused of a major drug related crimes?
