Don Shooter Sues Former Colleague For Damaging Statements

Former State Rep. Don Shooter has sued a former colleague, Rep. Michelle Ugenti-Rita.

Ugenti-Rita had sued Shooter last month, arguing statements the expelled lawmaker made about her damaged her reputation. Shooter’s lawsuit says Ugenti-Rita said false and damaging things about him.

Howie Fischer of Capitol Media Services joined The Show to help sort this out.
