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.

Age of consent in ‘79 was 14. He can’t be charged with newer laws!

My attitude is even if he did everything his accusers say he did then I still want him elected, because those things aren’t really all that bad

An adult man placing a 14-year-old girl's hand on his penis isn't "really all that bad"?

If you don't believe the accusations, that's one thing, but white-washing child abuse is something else.

Who can forget the Podesta emails where GloRed offered to do anything Hillary needed during the campaign? You know it’s a lie when she shows up with some tearful woman.

This is completely out of control. The establishment Republicans and the democrats as a whole are scared to death that Roy Moore might win. Suddenly, a few women from over 40 years ago come forward with accusations of sexual abuse. They have no fear of reprisals because nobody can disprove what they are saying. However, nobody can prove what they are saying either. Why, after 40 plus years do they come forward when it looks like he will win his campaign for the senate? Looks fishy, really fishy!

God I hope U are right. I believe Roy Moors dated some girls that were probably too young for a man 30 - 32, but that doesn’t disqualify him.. He may have kissed a few. I believe the story by the 14 year-ol d and this women are lies.

I also believe, if he wins the RINOs and the democraps (not a spelling error)will ignore the wishes of the people of Alabama, and vote to kick him out.

If they really do this, I believe it will trigger CWII, which may be inevitable anyway.

Couldn’t agree with you more. America as designed by the founding fathers has been bastardized by the federal government usurping the inherent powers of the states, as set in the constitution. There needs to be a conference of the states & and total restructuring of the federal govt and their power.

Especially this last accuser today. A few kisses are nothing, but an attempted rape to not come up all the times he ran for office, that’s absurd. What’s next, he murdered someone 40 years ago, but no-one thought it was important enough to bring up when he ran for office before, but now it’s relevant.

By the way, I believe the final liar is being held back until about 1 week before the vote on Dec 12. They will find another girl from that period who will suddenly come forward and claim he actually raped her.

This whole thing is driving me nuts. Politics is such a dirty business. 40 years of living an exemplary life, and it’s all for naught.

RINOs don’t like him because Dems don’t like him.

All good..

I think this particular story makes no sense because who would try to force something with teeth near their privates? Sounds dangerous.

“It’s enough that the fire will not be extinguished. And enough that the rest of the Senate will be tempted to expel, at least.”

I remember the time Bill Clinton was removed from office for improper sexual behavior and lying under oath.

I bet they’ll do it 2 days before the election.

Bill Clinton was a Democrat.

The good Judge is a Christian Conservative and Republican.

It’s two different sets of rules. Everybody knows that.

Yes, it’s world-class hypocrisy, but it’s the way things are.

In those days private phone lines for kids were about as common as private jets and personal helicopters.


I didn’t have a private jet or a personal helicopter but I had the princess phone with my own line and so did a lot of my friends. The pro was that we didn’t comstsntly tie up the parents’ phone line. The con was it was easy for molesters to reach us.
