One of the women who accused Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore of making advances on her when she was a teen and he a local prosecutor admitted Friday to writing part of the yearbook inscription she offered as proof, a new crack in her story that gives Moore an opening to attack her credibility.
Beverly Young Nelson admitted to ABC News that she added “notes” beneath what she says is Roy Moore’s signature in her high school yearbook – an inscription that she and famed attorney Gloria Allred presented as proof the then-30-something Moore sought an inappropriate relationship with her in the late 1970s. The “notes” below the signature appear to be the handwritten date and location. Nelson still insisted that Moore wrote most of the message.
“Beverly, he did sign your yearbook?" ABC’s Tom Llamas asked her.
“He did sign it,” she said.
“And you made some notes underneath?” Llamas asked.
“Yes,” she replied.
While Nelson did not specify exactly what she added to the inscription, the text beneath Moore's signature reads: "12-22-77 Olde Hickory House.”
During her original press conference with Allred in November, in which she made her original accusation, Nelson read aloud and attributed the entire inscription to Moore, including the date and location.
"He wrote in my yearbook as follows: 'To a sweeter more beautiful girl, I could not say Merry Christmas, Christmas, 1977, Love, Roy Moore, Olde Hickory House. Roy Moore, DA,'" she said.

Gotta kill’em with kindness I guess. You never know with some people.
You’re a better man than me.
I haven’t followed this thread closely, but here is the ‘bottom line’ as far as I am concerned.
- A person should be innocent until proven guilty, even if they are not in court.
- A person who brings 40 year-old charges against a public figure should have to meet some level of burden of proof before these charges are published.
- This woman brought a yearbook as “proof of allegation”.
- This woman uttered 2 demonstrable lies in her initial news conference.
a. “I have not had any contact with Roy Moore since the “assault”. Court documents unquestionably catch her lying. Roy Moore was the presiding judge in her divorce. She was present in the courtroom. She made no motion for recusal, nor has she produced an documentation or legal documents from her lawyer indicating any problem with having her case heard by a judge who ‘tried to rape her’.
b. She claimed at the initial news conference that Roy Moore wrote everything in that yearbook entry. She now admits herself that her initial story was a lie.
- This woman brought accusations of a serious crime being committed, and has clearly lied about the “corroborating evidence”.
- Her lie reveals the fact that she put the “d.a.” after his name. She did not get the court paperwork with the “Roy Moore, DA” until 15 or 20 YEARS AFTER the reputed event. This means that she did not write the note a few days or weeks later to “remember” where she got the signature. She wrote it WITH THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF COMMITTING A FRAUDULENT ACT TO DECEIVE. Had she simply wrote the date and restaurant name as a notation to identify the entry, she could have admitted and her claim would have been taken more seriously. She lied to make her story more believable.
- Her story is COMPLETELY discredited. TOTALLY. A 40 year old charge that is “reinforced” by demonstrable and unequivocal lie(S), SHOULD NOT BE LISTENED TO NOR GIVEN ANY CREDIT WHATSOEVER.
You’re right, but see post 55 above. It seems this was not a school yearbook.
I believe that Alred and her daughter actually work for Weinstein and the Hollywood industry. I believe that Hollywood are the ones who built up Alred’s fame and career. Why? Because they needed a feminist lightning rod to attract all the actresses who have been sexually abused by the Hollywood creeps. Hollywood promoted her visibility and fame in order to attract to her those women who have been victimized by the Hollywood power structure. That way the women would first go to Gloria Alred rather than going to the courts to file criminal charges. This would keep the criminal charges and the lawsuits out of the courtrooms and out of the news. Alred would provide a shoulder to cry on for the women while gently persuading them that it would not be in their best interest to take on powerful people in the business so this way criminal cases could be kept out of the courtrooms and would become a quiet payoff in Alred’s office. Of course she would use her best lawyerly skills to reduce the pay off down to as little as possible.
There had to be a promise of a money deal.
The 14 year old was the one who was mixed up with drugs and sex as a teenager and cannot be believed either.
Or something.
And this was the 1977 yearbook, or the 1978 yearbook six months before it was printed?
