A former boyfriend of Sharon Bialek, the Chicago woman who accused Republican presidential contender Herman Cain of sexual harassment, will talk to reporters on Monday to provide information supporting Bialek's claims.
The unnamed man, whom Bialek said is a pediatrician, will hold a news conference with Gloria Allred, Bialek's attorney, at 2 p.m. ET in Louisiana. The event was first reported by RadarOnline, a celebrity news site.
Bialek said Cain reached up her skirt in 1997 when he was president of the National Restaurant Association and she went to him seeking job advice. Following the alleged incident, Bialek said she told her boyfriend at the time what happened. Cain denies the allegations.
The news conference comes almost immediately after Cain's wife, Gloria, agreed to discuss the allegations for the first time on national television in an interview with Fox News' Greta Van Susteren. In the interview, which was pre-recorded and is set to air Monday evening, Cain's wife defends her husband and rejects the allegations.
"To hear such graphic allegations and know that that would have been something that was totally disrespectful of [Bialek] as a woman and I know thats not the person he is, she said, according to partial transcripts of the interview.
And L. Lin Woods is taking notes.
It’s quite obviously now that Gloria and the RAT’s target group of voters are the idiots and fools of this country.
I thought Bialek claimed she didn’t tell anyone what happened?
Let’s hear what he has to say. I bet it won’t add anything to what we heard last week.
Tell me everyone that you met while out to dinner in 1997.
She said she told her boyfriend what allegedly happened.
What we’re going to hear today is hearsay.
If he reached up her skirt, why didn’t she press charges?
I can remember I had dinner with my father when he was alive but I can’t tell you specific dates and conversations I had with him in 1997.
I’m sure Buy A Lick’s boyfriend is a credible and objective witness. /SAR
They’re not building a legal case — they’re trying this one in the court of public opinion. Repeated accusations have a good chance of “sticking”, regardless of any lack of merit behind the charges.
Exactly. If he touched inappropriately, she could have filed a criminal complaint.
Its all very convenient we are hearing this just now.
Thank you. I missed that claim.
What were going to hear today is hearsay.
I know. And it really annoys me that he's being billed as a "witness" by some of the Misleadia.
As liberals are fond of telling us, its not the facts that matter, its the seriousness of the charge.
For them, a conservative accused in their minds, is as good as convicted.
That’s their MO.
WHAT a genuine witness to hearsay? Oh the humanity! Will they also interview the mailman who overheard the very same conversation while delivering a Publisher’s Clearinghouse sweepstakes mailing?
How about this young lady either press charges or take a nice big gulp of STFU?
A pediatrician, huh? Would have been a nice catch for the gold digger if she could have kept him. Wonder why he’s coming forward now?? A little blackmail maybe? Cain’s attorney will be all over him like flies on BS.
"Hello,
I'm Sharon Bialek's boyfriend.
I'm also a wimp and an idiot."
I hope they have a big room.
Somehow, I believe you could fill up the Superdome with Bialek’s former “boyfriends”.
ANOTHER CHICAGOAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
