Your buddy, Art: In 1993 State Senator George Jacko contacted Juneau police and troopers to get into a motel room where a young legislative aide was staying. He told them it was official state business and he needed to get into the room. He later admitted that he had been sexually involved with her. This incident sparked multiple complaints of sexual harassment from various women around the capital. In 1994, the Senate officially censured Jacko, ending his political career, or so we thought. News about Jacko continued to fill newspaper columns and evening news spots. In 1997, Jacko was served with a protective order to stay away from a 16-year-old girl in Homer. Within two hours he was arrested for violating that order. Per the Empire, the mother of the 16-year-old claimed that Jacko was “obsessed” with her daughter. The two would often engage in long phone conversations, including one that lasted 10 hours. In 1998 he was convicted of violating the restraining order.”
