Cain Accuser Karen Kraushaar Says She Wants Joint Press Conference With Other Accusers

One of the women who accused GOP presidential contender Herman Cain of sexual harassment in the 1990s said she wants to go public — now that her name has been revealed — and hold a joint news conference with all of the women making similar allegations.

Karen Kraushaar, 55, an employee with the Treasury Department’s inspector general office, said she never wanted her name to be made public as one of Cain’s accusers. But a news organization published her name Tuesday and she now says she is ready to go before cameras.

“I am interested in a joint press conference for all the women where we would all be together with our attorneys and all of these allegations could be reviewed as a collective body of evidence,” Kraushaar told The Washington Post.

The Post learned Kraushaar’s name last week., but did not publish it, honoring her wishes to remain private.

When The Daily made her name public, she said she realized that she could not keep her identity private any longer.

If this is the case that an investigation concluded was not harassment, I wonder at what point it becomes slander. Cain now has a lawyer because of Allred.

“I am interested in a joint press conference for all the women where we would all be together with our attorneys and all of these allegations could be reviewed as a collective body of evidence,”

I am interested in a joint polygraph for all the women where they would all be together without their attorneys and all of these allegations could be reviewed as a collective body of bull$hit.

Much as I sympathize with Cain, anyone who takes a polygraph test is asking for trouble. They are remarkably innaccurate.

Cain’s lawyer Lin Wood sued the heck out of everybody who was slandering Richard Jewell and won admissions and large settlements. It was Lin’s work that largely turned the tide for Jewell from being presumed guilty to widely known as innocent.

The non racist democrates are out to lynch a blackman, and the media and the world is quiet, is that ok by you? Does the liberal media and the progressive democratic party have permission and card blanche to knock down a black man simply because he’s black. Is this ok with jesse and al? Hey black caucus, NAACP this must be OK with you to, no? The hypocracy and the money train runs deep and it’s not about color it’s about money

I just googled Lin Wood and the threads read “Cain’s attorney blames women” ...... bullcrap, its so unreal. We are in a war not with bullets but with words, and we are relying on the masses that dont know what the hell is going on. they read headlines and assume its fact. Grrrrr How do you win with stupid people. HOW

interjecting herself into a partisan political campaign is probably a violation of the Hatch Act.
