Roy Moore's penchant for flirting with teen girls was "common knowledge" and "not a big secret" around Gadsden, according to some area residents.
The Senate candidate has denied any wrongdoing in the wake of a report from The Washington Post in which four women accused Moore of inappropriate advances - and in one instance, a sexual encounter - toward them when they were teens and he was in his early 30s.
One of the four women claims she was 14 at the time, making her the only one whose claim would represent a legal violation. Moore has said he never met her. A fifth woman came forward this afternoon.
Moore and other Republican leaders have questioned why it took so long for his accusers, now in their 50s, to come forward publicly.
And yet people who lived in Etowah County during that time have said Moore's flirting with and dating much younger women and girls was no secret.
"These stories have been going around this town for 30 years," said Blake Usry, who grew up in the area and lives in Gadsden. "Nobody could believe they hadn't come out yet."
Usry, a traveling nurse, said he knew several of the girls that Moore tried to flirt with.
"It's not a big secret in this town about Roy Moore," he said. "That's why it's sort of frustrating to watch" the public disbelieve the women who have come forward, he said.

Read through his Likes. You get an idea about him.
Since Moore has been in public life before with a lot of acrimony and publicity, the fact that these women never made a peep until now adds weight to their phoniness.
Very true.
A lot of these feminists like Ashley Judd came out against Weinstein and I ask the question, why decades later? Were they willing to allow other young women to be subjected to the same abuse so they could further their careers? I don’t look that them for heros for their #MeToo nonsense. I would consider them heroes if they came out and help protect this from happening to other women. 40 years later and they’ve done nothing to help others?
The weak sisters, the easily manipulated, the easily frightened and the gullible drift away, don’t they?
I worked in a large,very well known hospital for 20+ years.Having interacted with many,many,*many* nurses (male *and* female) it was my experience that the majority (the *large* majority) of the male nurses were fruits.This photo,IMO,clearly puts Blake in that majority.
I saw someone post that if it was true... they didn’t care. Because a man like Moore needs to be in the Senate.
So you’re right. Lots of hypocrisy going on here.
Either Doug Jones was trolling high schools or he wasn’t.
It sounds believable. Doug does not deny.
Decades past is not that long ago.
The many accusations shows a pattern with Doug.
Prove your innocence.
Plus, he’s an Aubrun fan. Just sayin.
I don’t see a link to his Facebook and I don’t have a FB account so I probably couldn’t read them anyway.
Damned gaydar ,.. it went off at such a high decibel level I thought I might lose my hearing.
Those Orwellian media newspeak colors need to be kicked to the curb for good. Red is leftist totalitarian and always will be. Blue is the color of Conservatism.
Soon Alabama is going to send Moore to the Senate to give it an enema because it is full of ... .
Supposedly they were afraid. But if they were raped and molested and so on, which I do not doubt, they kept their yaps shut so they could have careers in Hollyweird, so it was worth it to them to basically prostitute themselves to be actresses. And Weinstein was a royal preditor.
If any of these accusations are true, which I doubt, at the most it’s being pushy with 5 teenage girls. And since people have wanted to bring Moore down for years, why didn’t these women show up already before?
I am not attacking either of you. I just do not think that I t is at all difficult in this day and age to find people who will make false accusations, whether to get a few minutes of fame or because they think they are serving a higher cause. That is why I place no stock in allegations about the events of decades ago that are dredged up just before a highly contentious election. Move On or McConnell or the Washington Post or whoever wants Moore to lose could easily find dozens of people who would more than happily lie for them.
Since Moore has been in public life before with a lot of acrimony and publicity, the fact that these women never made a peep until now adds weight to their phoniness.
