An attorney released text messages exchanged between his client, a former staffer in the Arizona Senate, and State Senator Steve Montenegro. In a statement, the woman identified herself as having been in a relationship with Montenegro that involved her sending the state senator photos of herself “in various states of undress.”<\/p>\n

Attorney Tom Ryan released copies of the text message exchange between Stephanie Holford, who says she started working as a digital coordinator in the state Senate in January 2017, when she met Montenegro. They communicated via text message often and occasionally late at night, and the exchanges grew more flirtatious.<\/p>\n
