At Least He's Not Your Assemblyman

Nevada Assemblyman Steven Brooks (D-Las Vegas) is no longer welcome in Nevada's legislative chambers and has been ejected from the Democratic Caucus following a series of violent outbursts…

Raw Story tells the tale:

Brooks was arrested January 19 on a felony charge after allegedly threatening Assembly Democratic Speaker Marilyn Kirkpatrick, then detained by police several days later on a domestic disturbance call at his grandmother’s home.

[…] officers arrested Brooks on Sunday outside his wife’s Las Vegas home. A police report claims he attempted to choke her and threw punches at police, then threatened his wife as he was being taken away.

Way to go, soon-to-be-former-Assemblyman Brooks. Threatening your wife, your grandmother, and the state Assembly Speaker all within a month – takes real skill and courage… Jerk.
