Hegeeth sexual assault claim revealed

[justoffal]

Except there is plenty of evidence he did.

ALso, he paid the woman off.

An attorney for Pete Hegseth, the longtime Fox News host and President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for defense secretary, confirmed to NPR that Hegseth had paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault in order to prevent her from filing a lawsuit that could damage his career.

Hegseth, 44, left Fox News last week after his pending nomination was announced, the network said. Hegseth has denied the woman's allegations. The incident took place in 2017.

The Washington Post reported Saturday that Hegseth's lawyer, Timothy Parlatore, said in a statement that Hegseth had reached a settlement with his accuser, which included paying her an unknown amount of money in exchange for her signing a nondisclosure agreement. This arrangement was intended to stop her from filing a lawsuit and to protect Hegseth's position at Fox News, the Post reported.

Pay off is common and meaningless. Establishes nothing.

Where did he say this?

Look, I'm all for hashing this out in an open hearing... I'm sure it will make Hegseth look like a charmer.

Or Trump can pull his nomination and put up someone who is qualified.

Where did he say this?

Megan laid it all out, but it's mentioned in the report, line 226.

She arrived back at her husband's hotel room at 4am, where she was apologetic and told him she fell asleep (they what she told hegseth she would say), it's redacted, but, it appears these are the words of her husband when.he said she didn't have a hard time walking and wasn't slurring her words.

True but he didn’t do that. If you have to make things up, then you got nothing

Actually, the proof is ambigious, because she didn't report the rape for five days because she didn't remember it... you know, because of the Roofies.

This is the most likely scenario of what happened.

Roll in the hay with Hegseth, mutual consent.

Tells hubby she fell asleep on someones couch. (Megan revealed hubby was all over the Hotel looking for her, BTW)

Hubby most likely didn't buy the story. (revealed in the report of vaginal discharge consistent with a woman who engages in multiple sexual partners. Probably not her or the hubby's first rodeo.)

Four days later, she decides she was raped, most likely after her story fell apart about what happened, with grilling from the hubby.

Classic CYA.

Or equally plausible.

She gets roofied.
She's not clear what happened the next day and didn't say anything out of embarrassment
When her memory started coming back, she remembered what happened to her.

Not that either of these make Hegseth look good. Taking advantage of a woman who is too drunk or drugged to validly consent is considered the same as rape in most states.

I'd never pay someone off for something I wasn't responsible for.

I'd fight it in court.

 

[JoeB131]

Megan laid it all out,

Was that before or after she established that Santa Claus is a white man and putting on blackface was okay?

There is nothing abigious but her story. There were eye witnesses that clearly highlight she’s lying

Hence why the DA didn’t bring charges against the Sec of Defense

I believe you....

Really? You just stopped reading there? I gave you the line number in the report where you can find the information, of which she spelled out.

He can't read something that would prove he's full of shit.

What the **** does "abigious" mean?

She didn't bring charges because rape cases are very hard to prove. It's why less than 3% of rapists

Nope, I don't take Megyn Kelly seriously... especially now that she's debasing herself to get back in Trump's good graces.

She didn’t bring charges because the govt brings charges. They conducted an investigation and determined she was a liar

In fact a third party witness said she was sober as a judge and it was the secdef that was acting as if he were under the influence

She’
M got him drunk, and then blackmailed him

I'm talking about my post, you just stopped after the first sentence. I gave you the information from the report so you could read it for yourself.

The roofies was her husband not believing the story and badgering her for days on end until she admitted she banged Petey......she was raped.

I know you can't force yourself to view Megan's podcast...............you're afraid of anything other than your own opinion, you demonstrate that in every argument.

Get a life.

No mention at all of roofies....................liar.

Especially when you're trying save your marriage for sleeping around.

When I said "She", I meant the DA.

A third party witness isn't necessarily reliable.

Seems he was the one who got her drunk or fed her roofies.

But again, let's just subpoena everyone involved in front of the Senate and sort this mess out.

 

[JoeB131]

Especially when you're trying save your marriage for sleeping around.

I was talking about the DA, stupid. She made a police complaint, and the police forwarded the case to the DA.

Which like most cases of sexual assault, they didn't bother to prosecute.

Even assuming she got herself drunk and there were no roofies involved, she was too drunk to meaningfully consent.

Video footage and eyewitness accounts show she was not drunk.
She told Hegseth she was going to tell her husband that she fell asleep on a couch.
Police interview with the hubby, he told them she said she fell asleep on a couch.
Ooops.
Police asked hubby if she was slurring her words or appearred intoxicated. He told them no, she was okay and opened the door with the key card with no problem.

BTW a man takes advantage of a woman too drunk to give consent brings rape charges.

Really, I'm curious how that works. I've been drunk off my ass and still was able to walk a straight line.

She told Hegseth she was going to tell her husband that she fell asleep on a couch.
Police interview with the hubby, he told them she said she fell asleep on a couch.
Ooops.

That just means she was in shock or disoriented from the Roofies.

Police asked hubby if she was slurring her words or appearred intoxicated. He told them no, she was okay and opened the door with the key card with no problem.

So you are talking about a short interaction the next day, after the drink and roofies wore off.

BTW a man takes advantage of a woman too drunk to give consent brings rape charges.

Which is what Hegseth did if he didn't straight up roofy her.


Like I said, guy, let's bring this all up in the hearings. Let's see Hegseth tell us straight to our faces that having sex with a drunken woman who wasn't his wife was okay, and that he paid her a settlement out of the goodness of his heart.

Or.... you could just try to appoint someone who is a decent human being who just happens to be qualified for the job.

That's your problem, all the evidence supports Hegseths version and assassinates hers.

That's why no charges were filed.
