State Representative Robles’ absence from the candidate forum last night was made even more obvious as he was accused by opponent Alyssa Peterson of currently being under investigation.

Today, WFSB’s Dennis House reports that Robles has indeed been under investigation — since September — regarding an “administrative issue.”
