Misty Roberts’ Texting Spree After Alleged Encounter
After the alleged encounter, Misty Roberts, the mayor, went on a frantic texting spree, reaching out to her ex-husband to confess her mistake.
“I need to talk to you. I just need to tell you in person,” she texted him. “I f—ed up. And I respect you enough to tell you. And I need to.”
Roberts also apparently texted and confessed to the teen victim’s mother, who expressed concern about the consequences of the mayor’s actions.
“Out of respect for both our families, can you assure me that you can’t be pregnant?” the 16-year-old boy’s mother asked Roberts.
She replied, “Yes.”
The mother then inquired about whether Roberts used protection with her son during the encounter.
“Are you on birth control, have you had tubal, hysterectomy?” she asked. Roberts responded that she was on birth control, but the alleged interaction “didn’t reach that point in those few minutes.”
“I understand the concern,” Roberts added. “But, I can assure you of that.”
