LITTLE ROCK, AR — Bobby Petrino’s phone records show consistent communication with a number once registered to a local model, Republican staffer, and college student named Alison Melder.
The call log shows Petrino and Melder exchanged 19 text messages the Monday after the Arkansas-New Mexico game, 24 times the Sunday before the Alabama game, and more than 100 other times throughout last season.
The record also shows on Sunday, September 25th, there was an exchange at 11:18 in the morning with Melder. Just a few minutes later at 11:33, messages are sent between Petrino and Jessica Dorrell. She is the woman with whom he admits engaging in an inappropriate relationship.
Since 2011, Melder has been working part time with the Arkansas Republican party. But Thursday, the party confirms her employment is under review.
