His wife, Kelsey Henson, told Carolina Public Press on Thursday that she sought help for nearly a year from law enforcement and others from behavior she describes in court filings as harassment and emotional abuse.

She filed the paperwork on Jan. 30. Cody Henson was served with the protection order the next day, court records show.

“Every time I tried to report it and called 911 or went to a magistrate to try to get help, I was denied,” Kelsey Henson said. “I truly feel that was because of his position.”

She or a relative called 911 several times for help starting in April 2018, when the pair separated, she said. CPP has requested copies of the 911 call transcripts.

Then in June, she said, she approached a Transylvania County magistrate for help.

“His exact words were: ‘Those guys have a lot of legal aid, and I don’t feel comfortable proceeding with this,’ after he Googled Rep. Henson to see what political party he was affiliated with,” Kelsey Hanson said of her conversation with the magistrate, whose name she doesn’t remember.

Smollett's story was investigated and fell completely apart under that investigation.

You suggest this legislator should be declared guilty...before any investigation.
