Ryan Censured Over Comments
SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) -- The Sheboygan Common Council has censured Mayor Bob Ryan over a sexual comment he made about his sister-in-law that ended up on YouTube.
But aldermen meeting Tuesday night also rejected a complaint from some residents asking that Ryan be removed from office.
A YouTube video surfaced last month showing Ryan making the remark at a Sheboygan tavern. He publicly apologized for the remark and said he had entered an alcohol treatment program, but that he would not resign.
Ryan has also been accused of sexually harassing the city's human resources director. Angela Payne says Ryan fired her after she refused his sexual advances.
