Former Utah AG Candidate Frank Mylar Charged with Bribery

Frank Demcy Mylar, a former Republican candidate for Utah Attorney General, has been charged with bribery for offering a job to opponent Trent Christensen in exchange for an endorsement. Mylar allegedly sent text messages to Christensen making the offer but later retracted it. Christensen reported the incident to law enforcement, leading to the felony charge against Mylar. Despite Mylar's apologies and claims of mistake, the Salt Lake County District Attorney filed a third-degree felony charge of bribery in elections against him, acknowledging Christensen's cooperation in reporting the alleged crime.
