Security Guard Confirms Tabloid Report on Edwards (Updated)


July 25th, 2008

Update: LA Times Bloggers told not to discuss

Criminal Complaint filed by reports against hotel security.

FOX News reports that a security guard working the night a National Enquirer reporter claims he confronted Senator John Edwards while he was visiting an alleged mistress has confirmed reports of the confrontation.

The guard said he escorted Edwards, who was not a registered guest at the hotel, out of the building after 2 a.m. Edwards did not say anything while he was escorted out, said the guard, adding that at times the reporters on the scene were “rough on him,” sticking a camera in his face and shouting questions.
The guard did not recognize Edwards at the time of the incident, but said he concluded it was the 2008 presidential hopeful after hearing reports about the incident and finding an Enquirer reporter’s notebook at the scene.

FOX also reports the following quote from an Edwards campaign worker speaking on condition of anonymity saying, “I’m definitely upset by it. I wish I was more surprised, though.”
