It is written right in the linked article here that her parents had to help her. Read the article instead of asking me what more I would know of her. I only read the article and then shared how horrible I think it is that people are marginalizing inappropriate sexual conduct, no matter whether it was a brutal assault with a brutal physical rape (which it doesn’t appear from the article to have been) or a legal rape from taking advantage of a low-ranking, younger girl or possibly in a drunken stupor (which I don’t know which but the article seemed to hint at if only through circumstantial evidence, read the linked article), or for any words spoken or actions done which would have made someone feel uncomfortable with Mr. Cain’s words and actions.
We don’t have all the specifics of this gal, the second one that has already been reported, or the ones at the Iowa radio station reported yesterday, but we DO know there were complaints by women who felt uncomfortable with what he did, some enough to submit a complaint to their employees and two we know of who received settlements, no matter how big or small.
I don’t know this woman, her story, or any of the others, and I only know she had her parents involved because of the linked article here which provided that info, but I want to remind people that using sex or even just making people feel uncomfortable with related words or actions is NOT something to glamorize, and it IS something to be concerned with, whether that concern needs to be one of “icky disgust” or one of outrage. I am seeing too many conservatives more concerned with Mr. Cain’s campaign than they have for real people who have had something probably ranging from a difficult environment to work in with a fear of what COULD happen to possibly a lot worse. Even the FIRST level should be of SOME concern to the conservative leaders we depend on to help our country keep its vision of right and noble things on this earth.
Put those actions into perspective, but NEVER overlook when a man.. or woman for that matter... overreaches sexually.

Yesterday an Iowa radio guy named Deace complained about Cain’s behavior to some woman at his station.
Here are the details, as reported in the Des Moines Register:
During his Oct. 3 broadcast in Iowa, Deace mentioned that Cain made a comment to a woman who was there to report on the radio interview for another news agency.
“Cain said, ‘Darling, do you mind doctoring my tea for me?’” Deace said.
Deace told the Register last month that he believes Cain was talking about adding honey and lemon, but that it was an awkward moment.

I am very sorry for all your daughter has endured. We begin when they are infants, kissing the boo-boos to make it better. As toddlers kisses are not quite enough—they want kisses and band-aids.
There is nothing more heartbreaking for a parent than not being able to make it all better, not being able to “make it go away.” I've been there as a parent.
I also remember Duke LAX. How much misinformation (ie LIES) was put out by the media. Local media, national media, city officials, Duke faculty and many freepers assumed guilt. To this day, many people think “something happened.”
The truth will come out, it always does. I refuse to be a part of a character assassination based on "sources.".
