A year ago, Ralph Shortey served in the Oklahoma state senate as a Republican. That changed March 9, 2017, when cops found him in a hotel room with a 17-year-old boy. He was seen wearing a shirt that referenced a bible verse about wives obeying their husbands (RELATED: WATCH: Cops Release Footage Catching Senator In DEPLORABLE Act). Now police have released interrogation footage from four days later. In the video, they confront him with evidence he solicited the teen for sex.
“So here’s the deal, Ralph,” an investigator said. “You and I both know what the truth is, and the truth is not what you’re telling us.”
Early in the footage, Shortey can be seen asking if the teenager was “legitimately underage.” He insisted he only had the boy over to his house once to play video games, and they met at a coffee shop a couple of times.
The teen said Shortey was well aware that he was underage, according to one investigator.
