Now questions are being raised about Plaskett and her connections to Jeffrey Epstein.
Plaskett met Epstein numerous times after her entry into politics in 2014, visting Epstein's office in the Virgin Islands and his New York City townhouse, she said in a deposition last month.
Emails released in the case show that Epstein jumped at a request in 2014 to help Plaskett in her underdog campaign.
According to the emails, it was the former first lady of the Virgin Islands who asked Epstein to help Plaskett.
Epstein told de Jongh that several of his employees would contribute to Plaskett.
Plaskett acknowledged in her deposition that she was aware of Epstein's reputation and that she "Could have" known by the time they met in New York that Epstein took young women to his Virgin Islands getaway.
Plaskett needs to check her own house before she goes after anyone else and explain why she was soliciting Epstein for support.
