During summer school in the 1990s, Jonathan Martin – Senior Politico Reporter – has come forward to accuse Kenneth Vogel – Politico Political Reporter - of inappropriate behavior occurring when the two men were in between classes on campus, eventually leading to the discovery of their calling to save the world through journalism.
Martin, who was sixteen at the time, has accused Vogel – who was also sixteen – of sexually manhandling him while in the shower of the gymnasium at Hardin Bigg High School in Philadelphia, PA. According to Martin, the two young men had been playing a game of hand ball, hit the shower and that’s when things got out of hand.
“We had finished the game of handball,” stated Martin. “We got in the shower and the next thing I know Kenny’s hand was in my crotch. It startled me so much so that I dropped the soap. When I bent over to pick up the soap, all I felt was a burning sensation and my head repeatedly hitting the shower wall. I was sore inside and out.”
Martin said it was just a week later when Vogel moved, leaving Martin with the haunting memory of the torrid incident in the shower. Years later, Martin went to work at Politico, running into Vogel for the first time.
“I probed Kenny for answers,” insisted Martin. “I had to know why, but he states that ‘he doesn’t even remember me.’”
Jonathan Martin’s ugly tale has raised more questions than the story has answered. Questions such as:
Why wait so long to out Vogel?- How did it really feel?
- Did you drop the soap intentionally?
- Why not tell the principal or your parents?
- Have you had any similar experience with other reporters?
- Is Gloria Allred going to take your case?
- Was the shower wall ceramic tile or cheap porcelain?
- Is getting manhandled in a shower a pre-requisite for becoming a reporter?
- If you call Gloria Allred now, can you book all the morning shows in time?
- Did he smack your ass at any time during the event?
- Did he hit you with a towel afterwards?
The Right Elective Decisions has confirmed that Kenneth Vogel has denied the manhandling of Jonathan Martin. However, it is important for this country for Vogel to come clean – Americans need closure, and they need to know if Kenneth Vogel is indeed a rump ranger. Only the truth will suffice here.
