Hampton to Santorum: Ensign destroyed my family

By Jon Ralston · August 3, 2009 · 12:46 PM

That was the message that Doug Hampton, whose wife had an affair with John Ensign, sent to ex-Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, a pal of Ensign's, the day before Ensign disclosed the affair. The email lends credence to Hampton's assertion that Santorum tipped Ensign rather than sympathizing with Hampton.

Read the email at right.
