3. doubt it, but even so, you can't 'blackmail' an innocent man-
HE owns his behaviour. NO ONE ELSE-

Next, they will say it was a sting operation
"He had to cheat on his wife to smoke out blackmailers."

They will want to pin a medal on him.

15. I thought the husband of the staffer
that Ensign Ensign had the affair with asked for more money in addition to the severance pay that Ensign Ensign had previously paid to Major Major's wife. If I'm wrong, then I'm Captain Captain who obviously took the previous information as general truth when instead it was much less corporal. It's obvious the entire affair was less than admiral regardless.

16. Politico said the Blackmailer was the woman's husband.Both the
husband and the wife had apparently worked for Ensign Campaign.
