New Jersey
Governor Resigns, May Face Gay Lawsuit
August 13, 2004
CBN.com –(CBN News) - New Jersey Governor James McGreevey is facing a possible
sexual harrassment lawsuit, from a man.
The news follows a stunning admission by the Democratic governor
Thursday.
McGreevey said, "I am a gay American engaged in an adult consensual
affair with another man."
McGreevey also told reporters he is resigning as New Jersey's governor,
effective November 15th. Apparently, not because he is gay, but
because of a potential lawsuit from his former lover, Golan Cipel.
McGreevey met Cipel in Israel. Cipel moved to the states and McGreevey
gave him a high- ranking job as New Jersey's anti-terrorism czar.
But Cipel wasn't qualified for the job.
The Roman Catholic McGreevey has been married twice and has children.

Now, at the Statue of Liberty, visitors can pay for temporary lockers
by touching an electronic reader that scans their fingerprints.
And European airports are starting to use iris scans to identify
people. Some grocery stores are testing systems that let consumers
check out by touching a fingerprint scanner.
One reason for the new technology: credit card fraud and identity
theft.
