A Bucks County conservative activist who ran for lieutenant governor is facing assault charges in connection with an underage drinking party at her home in September.

Clarice Shillinger, 36, is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 29 on charges of assault, harassment and furnishing minors with alcohol.

Schillinger, founder of the political action committee Keeping Kids in School, is accused of punching a 16-year-old partygoer several times in the face during a brawl among drunken adults at her Doylestown home, according to PhillyBurbs.com.

The affidavit also said Schillinger poured drinks for the teens and played beer pong with them.

      Apparently the 16 year old, whom she punched several times in the face, was only trying to separate the fight she was having with her partner.

      This “sweetheart” shouldn’t work in any institution associated with children.

      She has a PAC called “keep kids in school” while holding keggers for teens and beating the shit out of them.

      That needs to hit the news so her political career stops suddenly or at least is at heavily encumbered.
