NC Speaker Tim Moore sends Democrat who crossed him to a basement office CharlotteObserver.com BY DANIELLE BATTAGLIA AND AVI BAJPAI UPDATED SEPTEMBER 21, 2023 6:44 PM House Speaker Tim Moore moved a state representative’s office to the basement Thursday, nearly a month after the lawmaker asked for a criminal investigation into allegations that Moore traded sex for political gain. On Thursday, Rep. Terence Everitt, a Democrat from Wake County, found himself moved to Room 24 of the basement, a former supply closet that Moore said would offer him more “security.” Everitt had predicted when he unsuccessfully sought the investigation of Moore: “There will be repercussions.” “These are the repercussions,” Everitt told The News & Observer on Thursday. But Everitt said this latest move just makes him feel bad for Moore, and he intended to tell the Democratic Caucus that in a meeting Thursday night. “After five years, he thinks moving me further away from other people and closer to the cafeteria is punishment?
