Conyers Mentioned Chandra Levy Case When Intern Rebuffed Sexual Advance: Report
Fox News ^ | 12-6-2017 | Matt Finn

A former congressional intern reportedly says she too was a victim of inappropriate sexual contact by now-retired Rep. John Conyers, saying Conyers even claimed during that encounter to have “inside information” on then-missing federal intern Chandra Levy.

Courtney Morse, 36, described the incident from 16 years ago to The Washington Post. She said Conyers, D-Mich., mentioned the Levy case when Morse was a college intern for him and the congressman drove her home one night.

Morse said Conyers wrapped his hand around hers while it was in her lap and said he was interested in a sexual relationship, the newspaper reported.

Levy went missing in 2001. A police investigation revealed she was having an affair with married California Democratic Rep. Gary Condit.

“[Conyers] said he had insider information on the case. I don’t know if he meant it to be threatening, but I took it that way,” Morse told The Post. “I got out of the car and ran.”

Morse said nothing inappropriate happened during the first months of her internship and that she accepted Conyers’ offer for a paid summer internship. Then he started giving her gifts and asked her to dine with him -- and later offered her the ride home, which she accepted. Morse quit her internship shortly after the incident and returned to Ohio.

Levy’s remains were found about a year later in a park. MS-13 member Ingmar Guandique was found guilty of murder, but the case was effectively dropped over problematic witness testimony and Guandique was deported. Condit lost reelection in 2002 amid speculation about his role, but his lawyer later described the Guandique verdict as vindication for his client.

Shock remark. Conyers is a strange one and that remark he made on Levy and her demise is super strange, Liz.

Just curious....

Why would anyone mention something like that under those circumstances? Unless they were threatening....

Yes, exactly.

"Keep your mouth shut, you see what happened to Chandra Levy didn't you?"

I wish she had reported it back then

She wouldn't a stood a chance with the mindset back then.

My guess is she may have tried to figure out who to talk to, probably told her family and her best friends, then realized there was no one to tell who would believe her or who would do anything about it.

Now we can safely surmise that people she would have complained to were sexpervs themselves.

The DC police chief in charge then also was in charge of the Chandra Levy investigation. That chief advanced the fruitless false flag white panel truck search, even after the blue Caprice description was provided by a witness?

Swampier and swampier into deep state Muslim Brotherhood contamination of American politics & administrative law enforcement not to mention communications.

The framing and eventual freeing of that immigrant is the most under-reported story I can think of. Chandra Levy’s murderer is @ large & no one cares.

Hmmmm.....

Every night you can see half a dozen cold case file shows. Why not this case?

The illegal had nothing to do with it. He was a perfect patsy. They wanted this to go away.

Chief Moose was police chief of Montgomery County, Maryland.

Not DC.

Gary Condit was the one American jumping up and down with our enemies when 9/11 happened. It took him off the headlines.

Yes, when all of Congress was singing America the Beautiful on the Capitol steps as 3000 were murdered that day, Condit was the guy in the back row smiling his face off.

The case should be reopened.

Who knows whether Conyers really knows. He will say he was only bragging to a potential girlfriend. Also, did he know details, or did he just know that sometimes affairs get in the way and interns have a way of vanishing when they grow inconvenient?
