Minnesota Senator Arrested for Soliciting Minor After TDS Bill Introduction

News summary

Minnesota state Senator Justin Eichorn was arrested on charges of soliciting a minor for prostitution shortly after introducing a bill to classify 'Trump derangement syndrome' as a mental illness. Eichorn, 40, believed he was communicating with a 17-year-old girl when he arranged a meeting, which turned out to be a police sting operation. Following his arrest, Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges emphasized a zero-tolerance policy for such offenses and called for stiffer penalties. Eichorn's colleagues in the Republican Party have since urged him to resign, expressing shock over the allegations. The bill he introduced describes 'Trump derangement syndrome' as a reaction to President Trump's policies and has faced criticism from Democrats for trivializing mental health issues. As of now, Eichorn remains in custody, with felony charges pending.
