Florida’s top Republican official, Christian Ziegler, has been accused of rape by a woman who has reportedly been a friend for over 20 years. Police search warrant affidavits suggest that Ziegler’s wife agreed to participate in a sexual encounter with Ziegler and the woman. Ziegler maintains that the interaction was consensual and denies all allegations. Governor Ron DeSantis has called for Ziegler’s resignation, and the investigation continues as the search for answers continues. This case has also raised questions concerning conservative politics and the scrutiny of LBGTQ+ activists. The story is still developing, with uncertainty remaining about the investigations and ongoing public discussion.
