| Description | Former Virginia Del. Joe Morrissey spent weeks playing coy after his teenage ex-secretary -- whom he was accused of having a sexual relationship with when she was 17 years old -- gave birth to a baby boy in March.
But on Wednesday, Morrissey confirmed that he is the father.
Morrissey has had a roller coaster of a year. He was sentenced to six months in jail in December for a misdemeanor conviction related to a sexual relationship he allegedly had with Pride, his law office's former receptionist, when she was a minor. Then, on daytime work release from jail, he successfully campaigned as an independent to reclaim the House of Delegates seat he'd resigned during the sex scandal. Morrissey gave that seat up again in April to run later this year for the Virginia state Senate, first as a Democrat, then as an independent when the party rejected his signatures.
