Main article: Larry Craig scandal
On June 11, 2007, Craig was arrested at the Minneapolis-St. Paul
International Airport on suspicion of lewd conduct in a men's restroom,[40]
where he was accused of soliciting an undercover police officer for sexual
activity.[41] During the resulting interview with the arresting officer,
Craig insisted upon his innocence, disputing the officer's version of the
event by stating that he merely had a "wide stance" (Craig states that he
said he was a "wide guy",[42]) and that he had been picking a piece of paper
from the floor.[41]
Despite his statements of innocence during the interview, Craig later
pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct by signing and
mailing a plea petition, dated August 1, 2007, to the Hennepin County
District Court in Minnesota.[43][44] He paid $575, including fines and fees.
Senator Craig signed the petition to enter his guilty plea, which contained
the provisions, "I understand that the court will not accept a plea of
guilty from anyone who claims to be innocent... I now make no claim that I
am innocent of the charge to which I am entering a plea of guilty." Craig
mailed his signed petition to the court, and his petition to plead guilty to
the misdemeanor charge was accepted and filed by the court on August 8,
2007.[43] In an August 28, 2007, press conference Craig regretted filing the
guilty plea, stating "In hindsight, I should not have pled guilty. I was
trying to handle this matter myself quickly and expeditiously"[45][46]
The bathroom at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport in which the 2007 incident
occurred.
At a news conference on September 1, 2007, Craig announced his intent to
resign, "with sadness and deep regret", effective September 30, 2007. On
September 4, 2007, a spokesperson for Craig indicated that he was
reconsidering his decision to resign,[47] if his conviction was rapidly
overturned and his committee assignments were restored.[48] The following
week, Craig's attorneys filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea, arguing
that it "was not knowing and intelligent and therefore was in violation of
his constitutional rights."[49] The motion was ultimately denied, upholding
the initial guilty plea.[50]
Following the ruling, Craig announced that despite his previous statements
to the contrary, he would serve out his Senate term. He stated that he
intended to "continue my effort to clear my name in the Senate Ethics
Committee—something that is not possible if I am not serving in the Senate.
"[51] Craig did not seek reelection in 2008 and left office on January 3,
2009.[52]
Both the 2009 documentary Outrage and the magazine Newsweek (June 7, 2010
issue) listed Craig, among others, as a prominent conservative politician
who had a record of anti-gay legislation and then was caught in a gay sex
scandal.[53]
Post-Senate
After his retirement, Craig opened the consulting firm New West Strategies
with his former chief of staff, Mike Ware, focusing on energy issues.
