Police Report Says Troy Jackson ‘Pushed’ His Partner

“Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Troy Jackson’s longtime partner told an officer he ‘pushed her around’ after Jackson broke down a door and punched a man at a Fort Kent home in 1988, according to a police report,” Bangor Daily News reports.

“Jackson, who was 19 at the time, does not dispute the assault of the man, a misdemeanor charge resolved by a fine. But Lana Pelletier, who has been in a relationship with Jackson for roughly 40 years, says she has no memory of making the statement attributed to her by police and denied he pushed her.”
