Former San Diego Mayor Bob Filner charged with felony false imprisonment, battery
SAN DIEGO - Former San Diego Mayor Bob Filner was charged Tuesday with felony false imprisonment and misdemeanor battery for his alleged sexual harassment of three women.
The victims were identified as Jane Does 1, 2, and 3, according to the state Attorney General's Office. A grand jury had been hearing evidence against Filner, according to published reports.
Filner, 70, is charged with one felony count of false imprisonment by violence, fraud, menace and deceit, as well as, two misdemeanor counts of battery.
Filner resigned from office amid a sexual harassment scandal on Aug. 30 after nearly 20 women came forward saying he had groped them and or sexually harassed them over several years.
