RICHMOND, Va. Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax of Virginia on Monday emphatically denied a womans claim that he sexually assaulted her in 2004, suggesting that Gov. Ralph Northams supporters were trying to block his ascent to the governorship at a moment Mr. Northam is besieged by demands that he resign over charges of racism.
Does anybody think its any coincidence that on the eve of potentially my being elevated that thats when this uncorroborated smear comes out? Mr. Fairfax told reporters surrounding him in the rotunda of the state capitol about whether he believes Mr. Northam, a fellow Democrat, was behind the accusation coming to light. He offered no evidence tying the Northam camp to the allegation.
Just hours after the Washington Post published a story Monday outlining the womans allegation that Mr. Fairfax assaulted her soon after they met in Boston at the Democratic National Convention the lieutenant governor said that he and the woman had what he called a 100 percent consensual sexual encounter.
We hit it off, she was very interested in me and so eventually, at one point, we ended up going to my hotel room, said Mr. Fairfax, 39, recounting in a measured voice what he said happened in 2004

When a Black, Commie, full term baby killer supporter is accused of sexual assault “WELL THIS IS JUST A SMEAR ITS NOT TRUE..I WAS VETTED BY THE FBI”
When Brett Kavanaugh, Conservative, was accused of sexual assault, even after passing SIX FBI background checks..the same commie left said “WE NEED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER!!”
Dem Party officials have completely lost control of this dumpster fire.
Keep it going !!
Seeing politicians get all tangled up in attempted fancy talk has long been a guilty pleasure of mine. He’s a treasure trove.
Because he ran the classic Karl Rove establishment campaign and refused to have Trump campaign alongside him.
The story that will not die!
Mmmm mmmm mmmm
You mean like a certain, recent, Supreme Count nominee?
This story is a lot more credible than the trash thrown at Kavanaugh.
And in the “he-said, she-said” world of #metoo, the entire meaning of the hashtag is that, when you have no idea which person to believe, you have to believe the woman.
The reason for this is that, someone is lying, and for so long women were dismissed when they clearly were telling truth (see many of Clinton’s accusers; see Monica Lewinsky for a case of a proven lie).
We tend to fight this as conservatives, wishing instead to apply logic to every situation, and then to apply certain evidence standards if we are going to damage someone’s reputation or career.
SO here is the problem. Two people close the door to a hotel room. Nobody will ever know what happened, and since it appears no physical damage was done, there was never a chance for physical “evidence” that force was used.
The two people tell different stories. How do you know which to believe?
We look to see if the woman told anybody at the time. There is no evidence right now that she did; and remember, if she did, that would still just be her word; if he told people the next day about this great sex night and how he hoped he’d see her again, that would be evidence as well, and there is no evidence that he did that.
SO we are left with, why did she tell this story? And we don’t know. What we know is this:
- They did have sex. Both say this happened.
- If he never called her, she might hold a grudge against that — but most women who do that, make the assault claim pretty quickly, when they are really hurting, not 14 years later.
- She is the same race, and political party. She shares his views. So there is no reason to think she is doing this for politics.
- He clearly would want to deny it, because it would ruin his career. SO he has a reason to lie.
I don’t know. She has no reason to lie about it, unless the breakup was bitter, and she is the kind of person to hold a long grudge.
So, rather than asking friends of the guy whether he would ever “do this”, ask the friends of the woman if she has ever falsely accused someone of a crime before.
Because just as the democrats seem to be saying “if a guy is a rapist, he’d do it more than once”, clearly if a woman would make false charges of criminal behavior, she would do it more than once.
I’m pretty sure that she will either deny everything to protect herself at this point, or else the democrats will destroy her, like they did to the accuser of Emmanuel, who is credibly charged by two women with assault and is now Attorney General.
Brett didn’t say the woman was smearing him. He was very deferential to her, and empathized with her. He did have harsh words for the committee democrats who held the story for months, worked with the woman to hide her history, and then sprung her at the last moment.
Would be interesting to find if he had quotes related to Kavanaugh’s experience.
Hook up gone bad. At least he didn’t deny knowing her.
And his little girl said we should pray for the woman.
“m willing to bet he knew of the photo and chose not to use it against him too!”
Betcha he hired fusion gps to dig up the pics in the first place. Because he thinks he deserves to be the Gov. I mean afterall he is black and needs reparations.
They’ve no doubt got the woman intimidated and paid off by now.
The left REALLY wants this guy to advance to the big chair.
It may very well be a smear, but it should be investigated as thouroughly as the smears against Kavanaugh. Goose...Gander
Looks to me like they knew about the sexual assault allegations, all of which are, so far, more detailed and less refuted than even those against Roy Moore. Moore, after all, denied any improprieties with underage women, there were serious doubts about the veracity of the main accuser, and she only made her charges more than thirty years after the alleged incident(s).
Fairfax must have taken a page out of Pony Boy’s (aka Breck Girl) play book
I cant believe there's were no hotel video of Fairfax (married in 2006) escorting her to his room....
plus guys of his ilk are known to brag about their conquests. Must be pals of his that know plenty.
Fairfax got her into his hotel room with a ruse....to get some papers telling her they had a "mutual friend"
........that initial move underlines the married Fairfax is a real operator. He's done this before.
REALITY CHECK: When the girl innocently agrees to go to his hotel room, the male ego translates this into "she's hot for me".
When she balked at sex, Fairfax's male ego went into overdrive .....he could not take rejection so he used fore to get what he wanted.
WASH/PO REPORTS The married father of two, Fairfax, and the woman first met at the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston.
He got her to agree to go to his hotel room.......he had plans she could never have dreamed of.
She described a sexual encounter that began with consensual kissing.......
and ended with Fairfax forcing her into a sexual act that left her crying and shaken.
FAIRFAX FORCES ORAL SEX ON HIS VICTIM The Washington Post reported: Fairfax (father of two, married in 2006)
guided her to the bed, where they continued kissing, and then, at one point, she realized she could not move her neck."
"She said Fairfax used his strength to force her to perform oral sex.
Or as Gillette would say---his toxic masculinity.
