Many were shocked when Senator John Ensign admitted through a press conference his affair with Cynthia Hampton. Many were also asking as to why he did it? Now, news reports from Las Vegas reveals that Douglas Hampton tried to exploit his wife, Cynthia Hampton’s affair with the powerful Republican Senator by going to the media, before the news was scuttled by a public statement from Senator Ensign saying he had a love affair with Cynthia Hampton, surprising many in Washington DC.

Las Vegas media reported that Douglas Hampton is said to have gone to hottie anchorwoman from Fox News channel, leggy blond Megyn Kelly, to help expose Senator John Ensign’s “heinous conduct and pursuit” of his wife, Cynthia Hampton.

It seems as though before any news media could expose the Cynthia Hampton and John Ensign love affair, the Republican Senator from Nevada actually held a pre-emptive press conference to confess his extra-marital activities.

According to the Las Vegas Sun newspaper, Douglas Hampton, with an obvious crush on the Fox News anchor, pleaded for Megyn Kelly to expose his former friend and boss John Ensign.

Here is Douglas Hampton letter to Megyn Kelly:

“The actions of Senator Ensign have ruined our lives and careers and left my family in shambles. We have lost significant income, suffered indescribable pain and emotional suffering.

“We find ourselves today with an overwhelming loss of relationships, career opportunities and hope for recovery. Our pursuit of justice continues to place me and my family in harm’s way as we fear for our well being.

“I could have sought the most liberal, Republican hating media to expose this story, but there are people’s lives at stake and justice is about proper process as well as outcome. Senator Ensign has no business serving in the US Senate anymore!

“Senator Ensign’s conduct and relentless pursuit of my wife led to our dismissal in April 2008.

“I would like to say he stopped his heinous conduct and pursuit upon our leaving, but that was not the case, and his actions did not subside until August of 2008.

“In fact, one of the confrontations took place in February 2008 at his (Ensign’s) home in Washington D.C. with a group of his peers… One of the attendees was Senator Tom Coburn from Oklahoma, as well as several other men who are close to the senator.

“It appears there may be nothing the law can do to correct and bring justice and restitution to this terrible wrong that has been done us,” he wrote. “I have sought a number of lawyers who are having difficulty finding charges that may hold up in court.

“It is my belief we are dealing with a very powerful person and institution in the U.S. Senate that only the media can pierce to expose the wrong and bring light and focus to what needs to be done.

“Please help me! This should not be how the leadership of our country should be allowed to behave. I need justice, help and restitution for what Senator Ensign has done to me and my family.”

The Douglas Hampton letter to Megyn Kelly was addressed to the corporate office of the right wing leaning network in New York City. The Megyn Kelly-Douglas Hampton letter on John Ensign and his wife Cynthia Hampton went on to say that Douglas Hampton wanted “to establish the framework for discussion and provide enough information to warrant a meeting with Kelly and Fox News.”

Douglas Hampton said he addressed the letter to Megyn Kelly because he had “great respect” for Fox News and that Megyn Kelly is a trained lawyer and the story had several legal elements.
