Two more accuse Graham Hunt, R-Orting, of lying about military service
Two more people have stepped forward to say that state Rep. Graham Hunt, R-Orting, deceived them about his military record.
The latest accusation comes from the chairman of Washington state’s Libertarian Party, who claims Hunt spoke of being shot and stabbed during his time in the military.
Facing questions about his service, Hunt wrote on his website Friday that his main injury from his time in the Air Force was post-traumatic stress disorder, with no mention of a gunshot or stab wound.
Steven Nielson, a former state legislative candidate and the current head of the state Libertarian Party, says that’s contrary to what Hunt told him two years ago.
