Assault Probe of GOP Gov Candidate Gibbons Re-opened (2:53 pm)

Ryan Nakashima for AP reports:

The district attorney said Monday that authorities have reopened their investigation into a cocktail waitress’ claim that a Republican congressman running for governor assaulted her in a parking garage after a night of drinking.

District Attorney David Roger said the case involving Rep. Jim Gibbons - which had been closed after the woman, Chrissy Mazzeo, dropped her complaint - is under investigation again.

Mazzeo, a Las Vegas Strip casino waitress, accused Gibbons, 61, of pushing her up against a wall Oct. 13 and propositioning her. Mazzeo, 32, said she had been pressured and offered cash from people linked to the Gibbons campaign to drop the complaint.
