Congressman Jim Gibbons Rape Allegations

Rape, Murder, It's Just a Shot Away
Wonkette.com A couple of mysterious 911 calls to Las Vegas police ?- all apparently made from the bathroom of a Starbucks on Paradise Road by a terrified drunk gal ?- have suddenly derailed Congressman Jim Gibbons and his campaign for Nevada governor.

The story is changing so quick we can't even get a timeline in order, so let's just randomly toss together some of the filthier details, after the jump.

Casino waitress (or interior designer?) invited to join drinking party with Gibbons and some other gals at McCormick & Schmick's, one of those upscale-chain seafood & steak joints at Paradise and Flamingo.
Restaurant staff says the drunken party becomes "flirty."
Something happens, she makes three 911 calls over 45 minutes, claiming assault and the threat of rape. Also, she's drunk.
She mysteriously refuses to file charges at the last minute, and 24 hours later completely recants her entire story, sounding like she fears the old Bugsy Siegel Goodbye.
Gibbons' ever-changing claims are also totally different from what he told the cops and what's on the 911 recordings, which you can enjoy here.
Security cameras should have captured lots of interesting footage.
Actual quote from her third 911 call: "I told him I survived cancer 11 years and I, someone assaults me … I don't care about rape I care about survival and he says ?'survival ain't going to do your problem a bit,' so you'll see this stuff on camera if they have a camera." We're not sure what it means, other than that Republican congressman and Nevada gubernatorial candidate Jim Gibbons threatened to rape and murder some drunken gal he picked up in Vegas.
Hilariously, Gibbons told the gal his marriage was "boring" and his hotel was so close that they could "crawl to it." Gibbons' wife, Dawn Gibbons, is running for the congressional seat he's abandoning to run for governor.
Gibbons was leading Democrat rival Dina Titus by nine five points. If she can avoid threatening to rape and kill people between now and Election Day, chances are she's the next governor.

LAS VEGAS ?- A woman who says she was assaulted and propositioned by congressman and Republican gubernatorial candidate Jim Gibbons said Wednesday she was threatened, pressured, and even offered money, to drop her allegations and change her story.

Chrissy Mazzeo, 32, a Las Vegas Strip hotel-casino cocktail waitress, said at an hour-long news conference that the money offer came soon after the alleged Oct. 13 incident from a friend who said she had connections to Gibbons' gubernatorial campaign.

The friend, Pennie Puhek, told Mazzeo to drop the charges against Gibbons, 61, and said she would be paid if she signed a statement changing her account, according to Mazzeo's lawyer Richard Wright.

"There's money in this, you will get money for signing this," Wright quoted Puhek as saying on Oct. 16. Mazzeo added that a specific amount wasn't mentioned but it was clear the payment would be coming from "the Gibbons party."

Mazzeo said Puhek also stated that her life was in danger and "if you don't drop this, Chrissy, they will kill you, your baby and your family."

Gibbons of Reno issued a statement saying
