After having an affair with the wife of a staffer, Doug Hampton, Ensign allegedly unlawfully helped Hampton obtain a job at a lobbying firm. Hampton may also have had improper contact with Ensign after beginning his job as a lobbyist. Other details under scrutiny include a $96,000 payment from Ensign's parents to the Hamptons. Ensign resigned on May 3 rather than face questions under oath.
