Head-exploding weirdness of Mary Kay Letourneau's Strange Family/Bush Gov. Connections at R.I. message boards.
Jeb Bush's wife's sister is married to Letourneau's brother. Letourneau's brother Joseph is COO of Blackwater, the private security firm that keeps showing up in places like Fallujah and New Orleans; he was Pentagon Inspector General from Mar. 2002 - Sep. 2005.
President George W. Bush nominated Joseph E. Schmitz to be the Inspector General of the Department of Defense (DoD) on June 18, 2001. The Senate confirmed him on March 21, 2002.Letourneau's father was a right-wing politician. Seriously right-wing. Way over there right-wing.

At the time of his daughter's scandal, Schmitz had left politics, and was selling souvenirs at Washington, D.C.'s Union Station. He had also bought the home of his hero, Senator Joseph McCarthy.He was a bigamist and a champion of family values at the same time. One of the children of his bigamy was the infant victim of what may or may not have been an intentional injury to his penis by having a hair tied around it in what may or may not have been a ritual exercise in mind control through the administration of traumatic pain.
