~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Foxe is notable for being involved in a sex scandal surrounding Arkansas congressman Wilbur Mills. Mills, one of the most powerful men in the House of Representatives and a 1972 Presidential candidate, was having an affair with Foxe, who was working as a stripper. On October 7, 1974 the two of them had been drinking and were driving near the Tidal Basin in Washington at around 2:00 AM. The park police pulled the vehicle over, and Foxe attempted to flee the scene and jumped into the Tidal Basin. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ The incident attracted much publicity and led to Mills' resignation as Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee two months later; he did not run for reelection to the House in 1976. Foxe continued working as a stripper, changing her stage title from "The Argentine Firecracker" to "The Tidal Basin Bombshell," and published a book, The Stripper and the Congressman. Foxe eventually returned to Argentina, and her current status is unknown. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
