WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley won’t face state or federal criminal charges for sending salacious computer messages to underage male pages, in part because authorities couldn’t prove the authenticity of the chats, officials said Friday.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement also noted in an investigative report that too much time had passed since the February 2003 messages to bring any charges.

“I am of course relieved,” said a statement from Foley. “I, however, recognize that while my behavior was not illegal, it does not by any means make it proper or appropriate.”
