They really need to clarify exactly what Rep Radel is being investigated for; using cocaine or being ARRESTED for using cocaine...

But then, what IF they find that he did NOT violate an Congressional rules?

Ethics panel to probe Radel cocaine charge

By Frank Thorp, NBC News

The House Ethics Committee has voted to establish an Investigative Subcommittee to determine whether Rep. Trey Radel, R-Fla., violated Congressional rules when he was arrested in October for possession of cocaine.
"Pursuant to the Committee's action, the Investigate Subcommittee shall have jurisdiction to determine whether Representative Henry J. "Trey" Radel III violated the Code of Official Conduct or any law, rule, regulation or other applicable standard of conduct in the performance of his duties or the discharge of his responsibilities, with respect to conduct forming the basis for criminal charges of possession of cocaine in the District of Columbia, to which Representative Radel pled guilty on November 20, 2013," a statement from the committee reads.

According the statement, the Ethics panel voted unanimously on December 12 to form the subcommittee.
