Democrat who beat up woman for refusing sex still serving in legislature… behind bars

From the Daily Caller:
A Massachusetts Democratic state lawmaker who is serving time in prison for beating a woman when she refused to have sex with him continues to serve in the state legislature.

State Representative Carlos Henriquez of Dorchester was sentenced to six months in prison on January 15 after a jury convicted him of beating a woman he had been dating after she would not have sex with him.

Despite a chorus of calls for him to step down — including from Democrats like Gov. Deval Patrick and House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo — and threats of expulsion, Henriquez has refused to abandon his position.
Would PMS-NBC not make this story the headline story of every show if the guy sitting in jail was a white Republican? or does he get a pass because he's black? of just a Democrat?
