ASSISTANT A.G. PLEADS GUILTY

An assistant Attorney General under John Kroger has pleaded guilty to assaulting her long-time lesbian partner.  Susan Gerber admitted to punching and strangling her partner Janice Dulle after Dulle confronted her about an affair she said Gerber had with another woman.  Gerber got no jail time for the assault conviction, but she must attend anger management classes, and obey court orders for 14 months, after which her conviction may be wiped from her record.  She is not currently handling cases for the Attorney General’s office, and is the subject of an internal review.
