office and affirmed that he had never actually been responsible for internal security under the governor. According to Cipel, the press had distorted his history, transforming him from someone who had self-published a book of poetry at age sixteen into a "poet". He claims such distortions supported the story that McGreevey allegedly created and the press eagerly covered. In his own words, Cipel claims he was one of many victims of McGreevey's sexual harassment, that he had "no romantic affair" with the governor, but rather was taken advantage of. He also describes the former governor's behavior as egotistical, unprofessional, immoral, and immature.
