Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska The Rest of the Story- Walker/Mallott Style

So the last titilating bits are starting to come out... He did hit on a young girl whom had just hit 17... and he did it in front of the mother, not realizing she was standing behind him.

But the part that pissed her off was the fact she was having an affair with the 75-year-old and married Byron.

Or so say a combination of people claiming to have been there and/or have known of his affairs, past and present.

Gd I wish we had decent reporters in this state. Let this be a Republican [bleep] they would of tar and feathered there asses and threw them in the Yukon.

I just find it funny after watching Walker dodge the question and lie so many times and so many ways...

Was Mallot pushing a wheelbarrow of Viagra at the time? Or just wishful thinking out loud?

He has a reputation for getting around. Use it or lose it.

Some old “grey hairs” never stop trolling to get stroked. Their ego gets saggy without it.

Watch out young feller.

You talking to Byron?

this thread would be improved with pictures!

Lol....what did I win.......

Yes, it would.

ANCHORAGE (KTUU) — Gov. Bill Walker said Friday that the “inappropriate” statement that led to Byron Mallott’s resignation as lieutenant governor was made to “an adult female” and was cleared as “non-criminal” by Alaska’s Department of Law.

In a sidewalk interview after he cast an early ballot for the Nov. 6 general election, Walker, an independent, continued to decline to provide specifics about what Mallott had said or done that led to his resignation on Oct. 16, just three weeks before the election. On Oct. 19, Walker dropped out of the race for governor in a speech to the Alaska Federation of Natives.

In his speech, Walker threw his support to Democrat Mark Begich, though Walker’s name still appears on the ballot.

“I did not vote for myself,” Walker said in the interview Friday after casting his early ballot. “I voted for Mark Begich.”

Also running for governor is Republican Mike Dunleavy.

In the interview Friday, Walker said he hoped the woman would speak publicly about what happened between her and Mallott.

“The victim is going to tell the story — I think so,” Walker said. “I don’t know for sure, but it’s hers to tell.”

Walker criticized as “misstatements” and “lies” the assertions by some bloggers that Mallott’s statement was made to a teenager.

Walker’s aides had earlier said that the victim didn’t work for Mallott and Walker himself has said the victim wasn't a member of his administration.

“It was an adult female with no minor involved in that,” Walker said. “We had the attorney general’s office look at the facts of the situation and determine was there any criminal activity involved, and they determined no, it was not.”

After the resignation, Health and Social Services Commissioner Valerie Davidson took Mallott’s place.

Walker said the situation is one in which the privacy of the victim is so important that it requires him to forego transparency.

“Because there was no criminal activity, we are going to be very protective of her, to our own detriment,” Walker said. “That’s really hard for me to say because I pride myself in (being) open and transparency with the public and this is really the only scenario, protecting an individual in a situation like that, that’s the only scenario that I would not.”

Walker said that Mallott “tendered his resignation without any influence from me” two days after making the statement to the woman. Walker said he learned of the situation 16 hours before Mallott resigned.

“It was taken care of right away,” Walker said.

So again he makes a statement inconsistent with each of the previous statements...

Makes one wonder what position big itch promised Walker for taking the dive. Walker has making several verbal attempts to distance himself from that scenario.
Don’t want to wake up Wednesday morning to find out...

Lol>inappropriate” statement that led to Byron Mallott’s resignation as lieutenant governor was made to “an adult female” and was cleared?............... .as “non-criminal” by Alaska’s Department of Law .... lol ....So..... would u like to suck my .... vs .....suck my ....

So did the Mom get a fancy state government job out of all this, or a promotion to a better one?

Mom moved out with the Walker administration and none of them have raised their heads above the bulwarks since.

Well, at least they got the hole deep enough. Or just stopped digging, I'm not sure which.

My brother has a saying- " If you dig a hole, then fill it back in with the same dirt but it isn't enough, you didn't dig the hole deep enough."

Now we know about Byron Mallott’s sin … but what exactly do we know?

The Anchorage Daily News has gotten the full story about what former Lt. Gov. Byron Mallott said that made him quickly resign from office in October of 2018. They’ve got it on paper and on tape. From one side. And the newspaper has declared it the truth.

The story told by Jody Potts, former Village Public Safety Officer, is that Mallott propositioned her. Or rather, he said some things that made her uncomfortable, because it wasn’t that much of a proposition. There were no witnesses to that event and Mallott died of a heart attack earlier this year.

The story that made its way around AFN and finally to Must Read Alaska in 2018 was different. Mallott had attended the Elders and Youth conference, which is the opening act for the AFN annual convention. Something happened — he made an inappropriate comment to a female who was said to be a teenager, and daughter of his alleged paramour. None of it was confirmable, but today Potts says she barely knew Mallott.

That’s not what the record shows. Although photos of the two together have been scrubbed from the internet, it’s known in political circles that he was her protector. She emerged out of nowhere to take a lead role in public safety in the Walker Administration, invited to every meeting and thrust into leading positions. She had been brought into the Administration by Mallott, who was running a lot of the administration while the governor focused on building a gasline.

The event described by the ADN happened before she ended up becoming decertified as a law enforcement officer in Alaska. For what? Not telling the truth about an accident she was involved in. She can no longer serve in law enforcement roles in Alaska at any level, MRAK has learned.

There is also the matter of the nondisclosure agreement she had with the Mallott family. Readers can only assume that Potts has not broken the agreement. She has presumably not told the ADN reporter anything that is contained in that agreement. And her daughter did not sign the agreement, so she was free to fill in the details.

Even stranger is that one single utterance in a five-minute conversation with the lieutenant governor, unwitnessed and without an investigation, was enough to cause his best friend Gov. Bill Walker to accept his resignation within 48 hours. Walker never even knew the details of what happened, the story goes.

That story requires Alaskans to suspend disbelief.

But history is written by the survivors, and dead men tell no tales. Alaskans will never truly know what happened at the Elders and Youth Conference in 2018. We have to take Jody Potts’ word for it. There will be other versions of that story that float around Native and political circles, but she was the only one in the room.

It’s a cautionary tale for men in high places: No matter how high up you are, and how protected you are, you can be brought down in a heartbeat by saying the wrong thing. In the end, it will be “he said, she said,” and she will prevail.

(When contacted by the ADN for the Mallott story, this writer asked if it was on or off the record. Writer Kyle Hopkins said “I’m not going off the record with you.” His description of our subsequent conversation was accurate.)

Mallott had the hots for her and let her know it,, what is the big deal?

Probably a lot more happened than just hitting on her.

Are we talking about the adult woman the married man hit on, or her underage child, he allegedly hit on?

Byron is done telling lies.

If it was so unimportant why did the mother of the child being hit on say anything?
