New Mexico gov apologizes for staff's conduct at hotel party

Updated 6:40 pm, Friday, December 18, 2015

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez on Friday apologized for the actions of her staff during her annual holiday party at a downtown Santa Fe hotel and also said she should have handled it differently.

"I believe in people accepting responsibility and that is why I'm owning (up to) what happened, and I sincerely apologize," Martinez said in a statement.

Authorities have released dispatch tapes from a noise complaint that led police to a hotel room rented by one of Martinez's staff in which the governor can be heard telling dispatchers there was no need to send officers.

Police were called to the fourth floor of the Eldorado Hotel & Spa around 1:30 a.m. Sunday after the front desk reported a complaint about noise and someone throwing things off the balcony.
