Florida state Rep. Mike Horner resigned abruptly after his name was linked to a prostitution investigation in Central Florida.

“I deeply regret decisions I made that are causing my family unjustifiable pain and embarrassment,” Horner said in a statement. “While current press accounts from this morning are erroneous, my family still deserves better from me, as do all my friends, supporters and constituents. So today I am announcing I will no longer seek reelection to the Florida House.

Horner campaigned for “Stronger families” according to his website which is “down for maintenance.”
