An Idaho House ethics committee said Thursday that a lawmaker accused of raping a 19-year-old intern should be formally censured and suspended from office.
The committee also recommended holding state Rep. Aaron von Ehlinger (R) in contempt for invoking the Fifth Amendment and not answering questions at a Wednesday hearing according to The Associated Press.
The panel reportedly said that under Idaho state law, the amendment wouldn t apply since testimony given to a legislative ethics committee can’t be used in criminal court.

Suspension will not permanently remove Ehlinger from office, though the panel said it would unanimously support a motion to expel him if a member chose to bring one up.
