Ex-San Diego Mayor Bob Filner still denies sex harassment and alleges his office was bugged
Former San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, in an interview this week, denied having sexually harassed women and claimed that his City Hall office had been bugged.
Filner stepped down in 2013 after less than a year in office and pleaded guilty to two counts of misdemeanor battery and one count of felony false imprisonment. He spent three months under house arrest and is now serving probation in Los Angeles.
Asked by the Voice of San Diego whether he was sorry, Filner blamed women for making up fantasies.
"When you look at what … I was charged with, you know, it was, really, nothing illegal and it was just an attempt of the establishment to take back their city, which they did," Filner said.
