A Fifth Woman Accuses Senate Candidate Roy Moore of Sexual Misconduct
New York Times ^ | 11/13/17 | By SHERYL GAY STOLBERG and JONATHAN MARTIN

WASHINGTON — A fifth woman accused Roy S. Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama, on Monday of making sexual or romantic advances toward her when she was a teenager, as senior Republicans in Washington called for him to drop out of the race.

The new accuser, Beverly Young Nelson, told a news conference in New York that Mr. Moore attacked her when she was 16 and he was a prosecutor in Etowah County, Ala. Ms. Nelson was represented at the news conference by Gloria Allred, a New York lawyer who has championed victims of sexual harassment.

“I tried fighting him off, while yelling at him to stop, but instead of stopping, he began squeezing my neck attempting to force my head onto his crotch,” Ms. Nelson said in a statement she issued at the news conference. She said Mr. Moore warned her that “no one will believe you” if she told anyone about the encounter in his car.

“the mother remembers her neck being bruised the next morning.”

I read that Nelson stated she put makeup on the bruises so nobody would see them.

What kind of mother sees her daughter with deep blue and purple bruising on her neck and does not call the police? Did she think they were from a too tight turtleneck?

The story is a lieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

This one may be the end for Moore, whether she’s lying about the forced rape or not

Who, besides you, has said anything about ‘forced rape’.

You reek of being a fraud.

Yeah, funny how this only came out after polling showed the others hadn’t worked.

How many of the Trump accusers were sponsored by Gloria All-red?

She’s a lawyer and it may be she has been promised a political position. Not everybody needs cash...

True, that. They are cowards, but don’t realize that’s how their base sees them and who wants to go to the trouble of going to vote f=when the choice is between a crazed liberal and a coward Republican?

Instead they blame their problems on the religious wing of the party, and keep digging themselves deeper into trouble with the base.

They think they can successfully replace the base... they need to be persuaded otherwise or they’ll use this tactic all the time. Oh wait, they DO use this tactic...

I will have to go back, I thought I read the the mother remembered the bruises. Now I’m reading the mother only found out about 4 years ago. Maybe it was the boyfriend or someone else that remembers the bruises, if there were bruises at all

I think the story stinks, but this accusation today will hurt Moore. It looks clear to me that even if he wins, the senate will not allow him to take the office. The Deep State will not allow a devout Christian, who calls homosexuality a sin, to hold any high office

You do not know Alabama, or Alabamians. We don't like Washington elites telling us what to do. Roy Moore is not "toast."

Poor guy, innocent or guilty, they are not letting Moore into the senate

US Senate won't accept our duly-elected man? Then we are no longer a country, and it's time for Alabama to leave.
