Oklahoma officials call for investigation after Ryan Walters' office TV reportedly showed nudity
On Friday, board members Ryan Deatherage and Becky Carson told NonDoc and The Oklahoman that during the executive session of Thursday's State Board of Education meeting, they witnessed images of nude women on a TV in Walters' office.
According to the reports, Carson demanded the television be shut off. Walters struggled to turn it off, and did not address it or apologize once it was off.
Deatherage told NonDoc Walters should be held accountable, noting if he was treated like any other teacher, "we would probably pull his [teaching] certificate and put him on his own list."
The Tulsa World reported a third board member, Chris VanDenhende, had his back to the TV, but confirmed Walters turned it off when asked and "seemed shaken."
House Democratic Leader Cyndi Munson (D-Oklahoma City) called for new leadership at the state department, "regardless of if recent allegations are true."
"While we wait for more information, we will follow the guidance of the Speaker and trust that any alleged moral or criminal wrongdoings will be thoroughly investigated."
Oklahoma House Speaker Kyle Hilbert (R-Bristow) called for an investigation in a Friday afternoon news release.
Kind of like Jerry Falwell Jr and Ted Haggart, the more they "doth protest" the more incline they are utter hypocrites.
