Rep. Michele Bachmann may not be running for office next year, but that doesn't mean she’ll leave the spotlight behind. The congresswoman will go to court on May 14, 2014, to defend herself against allegations that her campaign stole e-mail addresses from an Iowa home-schooling organization during her run for the White House. Bachmann says her decision not to run for reelection was not influenced by the impending trial.Barbara and Richard Heki say they suffered “severe emotional distress” and lost out on business opportunities because the Bachmann camp improperly sent two emails to a distribution list they found on the Hekis’s computer.
remember her adopted kids all 23 of them?
WASHINGTON--Rep. Michele Bachmann mentions her stint as a foster mother at every opportunity, whether she's introducing herself at the recent debate in New Hampshire or speaking at the 2008 Republican National Convention. It's always been a bedrock part of the Bachmann brand.In the last three months, at least 100 news stories have mentioned Bachmann's claim that she raised 23 foster children. But the GOP presidential hopeful has provided few details about her time as a foster mom; in fact, very little has actually been reported about that period in her life. Former Bachmann neighbors and church members, according to a recent New York Times story, recalled few sightings of those foster kids.

Actual details remain murky, and reports and accounts contradict her public statements. Bachmann has repeatedly said she took in a total of 23 foster children. But a 2001 story in The Minnesota Lawyer put the number of children at 20. A recent article in the Minneapolis Star Tribunequotes Bachmann as saying she raised as many as four foster children at one time. But Minnesota officials say she was only contracted to house three at a time.And according to the head of the private company that licensed her as a foster parent, Bachmann never even hit that limit. "I would say there weren't any more than two kids at a time," said George Hendrickson, the CEO of the Professional Association of Treatment Homes (PATH).Because Bachmann went through PATH, she did not work with state agencies at all. The Minnesota Department of Human Services says that Bachmann was licensed on Aug. 7, 1992. According to Hendrickson, the last foster child was placed in her home in 1998. The license was closed out in 2000, Hendrickson said.
