A Missouri legislator faces expulsion from the state’s House of Representatives after an investigation by fellow lawmakers concluded that he had physically and sexually abused his children.
After hearing testimony from his family and reviewing hundreds of pages of documents, the Missouri House Ethics Committee wrote a report finding that the lawmaker, Rick Roeber, physically abused his children, sexually abused one at age 9 and another at age 5, and once “drowned a litter of puppies in a nearby pond.”

The Missouri House of Representatives rejected Rep. Rick Roeber's resignation last week so that the ethics committee could complete its report on the Lee's Summit Republican. The House voted to expel Roeber Wednesday.
In a nearly unanimous vote Wednesday, the Missouri House expelled Lee's Summit Rep. Rick Roeber.
Months after child abuse allegations first surfaced against state Rep. Rick Roeber — then a candidate for the Lee’s Summit district — the Missouri House of Representatives voted Wednesday to expel the Republican.
While no lawmakers voted against expulsion, Rep. Bruce DeGroot, R-Ellisville, voted “present.”
In a somber discussion on the House floor, lawmakers said they found the allegations credible and criticized prosecutors for not bringing charges against Roeber when the abuse was reported decades ago.

Missouri committee recommends lawmaker be expelled over alleged abuse of his children


JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — A Missouri House committee has recommended Lee’s Summit Rep. Rick Roeber be expelled from office after finding that he sexually and physically abused his now-adult children when they were young.
In the House Ethics Committee’s report released late Monday, a bipartisan group of lawmakers deemed the freshman Republican’s accusers — including his ex-wife and three of his four children — credible. They testified he had committed acts that under Missouri law would constitute “sexual contact” or “deviate sexual intercourse,” according to the report.
The committee also found accusations of physical abuse by Roeber, including beatings and an incident that left one child with a scarred eyelid. The evidence in the case, which included testimony from five witnesses, was “clear and convincing,” the committee said.

Rep. Rick Roeber can't resign until abuse investigation is over


A controversial Missouri lawmaker tried to resign from the House this past week, but his colleagues aren't quite ready to let him go.
In speeches Thursday, legislators from both parties said Rep. Rick Roeber, R-Lee’s Summit, should stick around until they finish their investigation into accusations he sexually and physically abused his children when they were young.
“This is a serious allegation,” said Richard Brown, the top Democrat on the chamber’s ethics committee. “It’s not right to accept this resignation and allow this member to escape without us giving full recognition to what has taken place here.”

Missouri Republican Resigns Amid Allegations Of Sexual Abuse Of His Children

It's notable that these allegations were made public by his children last September. Roeber denied them and voters in Missouri's 14th district elected the child-abuser anyway.
Disgraced Missouri state Rep. Rick Roeber announced his resignation Tuesday afternoon, just steps ahead of potential ouster proceedings in the House chamber.
Roeber, of Lee’s Summit, had been under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for alleged sexual assault of his now-adult child Anastasia, and physical abuse of Samson Roeber, a sibling.
Gabrielle Galeano, a sister, said she was aware of Roeber’s behavior at the time. All three told The Star Editorial Board of Roeber’s alleged abuse in separate interviews last year.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri House leaders on Tuesday said they told law enforcement officials that they’re concerned a resigning lawmaker accused of sexually and physically abusing his children years ago may pose a risk to other kids.
House Speaker Rob Vescovo and the leader of the House Ethics Committee in a joint statement said fellow Republican Rep. Rick Roeber’s “heinous actions make him not only unfit for office, but should also make him the subject of a thorough investigation by law enforcement.”
