Minnesota Republican Senator Arrested for Soliciting Minor
Minnesota State Senator Justin Eichorn was arrested in Bloomington for allegedly soliciting a minor for prostitution after arranging a meeting with an undercover officer posing as a 16-year-old. Following the arrest, Republican leadership, including the Speaker of the House, demanded his resignation. Eichorn, a 40-year-old married father of four, has not yet been charged, and the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office has yet to comment. The arrest occurred hours after Eichorn co-sponsored legislation related to “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
