Craig’s Attorney: ‘That Was Invited Conduct’

Item: Craig's attorney: 'That was invited conduct'/Betsy Z. Russell, SR

More Info: Attorneys for Idaho Sen. Larry Craig have just finished urging a three-judge panel of the Minnesota Court of Appeals to let Craig withdraw his guilty plea to disorderly conduct charges in a 2007 airport men’s room sex sting. “He looked in the crack. … He fidgeted with his hands. … Within a few minutes, according to the evidence in this case, he tapped his foot,” Craig attorney Billy Martin told the court. “We are challenging the insufficiency of the facts.”

Question: At this point, do you care one way or the other whether the court allows Craig to withdraw his guilty plea?
