WASHINGTON -- The FBI is investigating a possible threat against the north Louisiana teenager who was on the receiving end of suggestive e-mails from disgraced former Rep. Mark Foley, a Louisiana congressman said Tuesday.
Rep. Rodney Alexander, R-Quitman, said Tuesday that the young man's life wasn't threatened, "but close to it."
"There are people out there who feel like he is the one who (accused) Foley," Alexander said. "There are some bloggers out there who sent him some ugly stuff."
The teen served as a House page in 2005 and afterward received e-mails from Foley, a six-term Republican, asking for a picture of the then-16-year-old and what he wanted for his birthday.
The e-mails, first broadcast by ABC News, led to the disclosure of a highly salacious batch of instant messages that Foley sent to other House pages in 2002 and 2003. That disclosure triggered Foley's resignation late last week and raised questions about whether House Republican leaders acted fast enough to address the scandal, with the conservative Washington Times on Tuesday calling on House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., to step down.
FBI looks at threat
Alexander, who sponsored the teenager to be a House page, said the FBI recently launched an investigation after someone sent a particularly strong e-mail to the young man.
"It is something the family is concerned about," Alexander said.
Foley sent the e-mails to the teen in late summer 2005. Saying they "freaked me out," the youngster forwarded them to a lawyer on Alexander's staff in late August, two days after Hurricane Katrina hit, asking her to alert Alexander.
"If you can, mention this to Rodney so he is aware," one of the page's e-mails said. "I wonder what he would do about it."
