'I just wanted it all to be over': Katie Hill pens op-ed about contemplating suicide amid resignation

Former California Rep. Katie Hill wrote an op-ed for the New York Times detailing the despair she felt in the days after her resignation from the House of Representatives.

Hill, 32, resigned in October following the revelation that she had been in a romantic relationship with a female campaign aide. Intimate photos of Hill with the woman were leaked to a conservative news outlet and shared widely across the internet. Hill was also accused of being in a romantic relationship with a male employee, a claim she has consistently denied.

A freshman congresswoman, Hill spent less than a full year in Congress before being ousted as she faced an investigation by the House Ethics Committee into the alleged affairs with staff. "My life was just like everyone’s worst nightmare," Hill wrote in the New York Times. "Millions of people had seen pictures of me naked. Hundreds of journalists, commentators, politicians and public figures had written or spoken about my 'downfall,' the 'choices' I made, the lessons young people should take from what happened to me, the impact it would have on politics moving forward, the responsibility I bore for all of it."

In the aftermath of her resignation, Hill described contemplating suicide. "I just wanted it all to be over," she said. "I got up and looked for the box cutter. I couldn’t find it. A part of my brain was saying: 'Stop it, this is stupid. You’re not going to do it.'"

I don't want anybody to kill themselves, Hill should go away.  She cheated on her husband, she broke House rules, and she lied about it when she got caught.  She should feel bad, and I don't buy for one minute she can't find anything sharp in her house.  Tell it to your shrink, quit the BS, shut up, and go away.  Your 15 minutes is up.

Yup.

One brainless victim wannabe

Girlfriend is angling for a book/movie deal.

What a sociopath. But I repeat myself, she is a Democrat.

Just one more proven Democommie with ZERO CHARACTER.

I also do not wish someone terminate their life, but she did this to herself.  She is not a victim by any stretch, and in fact, she should be indicted, convicted and imprisoned for ten years.  It is self serving zero characters like this that make the USA a laughing stock throughout the world.

She contributes NOTHING to society.

Stupidity has consequences. Playing victim will prolong those consequences if not become new stupidity with new consequences.
