Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID) officially filed the paperwork to withdraw his guilty plea, arguing he only signed off on the deal because he was panicked after having just defended himself against accusations from The Idaho Statesman that he is gay.
The documents (available here) include an affidavit from Craig where he offers details on how he recalls the bathroom sting, including harmlessly reaching for a piece of paper with his right hand. He also mentions that he “spread his legs,” though no note of an exceptionally wide stance.
