Chuck Todd suggested Victim #5 was lying.


He said if Victim #5 was lying she would be doing a disservice to the other four victims. The stunt by Roy Moore's attorney with the yearbook entry being forged put a bug in his ear, as it was intended to do.

that is NOT THE same as accusing her of lying.....he was asking a question...not make an accusation. I am not a Todd fan but it was just a question.

The most ardent right wingers in my family would proudly say they were with the Tea Party people, no way they would ever say this if the Tea Party were Democrats

A Gadsden woman says Roy Moore groped her while she was in his law office on legal business with her mother in 1991. Moore was married at that time.

In the past week, Moore has been accused by five other women of a range of behaviors that include sexual misconduct with a woman when she was 14, and sexual assault of another when she was 16. This is the first public accusation of physical contact that happened after Moore was married.

In recent days, Moore has publicly denied any wrongdoing, and has denied knowing some of the women.

Tina Johnson

In interviews with AL.com, Tina Johnson recalls that in the fall of 1991 she sat in the law office of then-attorney Roy Moore on Third Street in Gadsden.

their time shredding Gloria Allred and smearing the fifth accuser. Yamiche Alcindor participated in this. Very disappointing.

Allred would have to be insane to introduce a forged signature and note into "evidence".

Since she's not insane I assume she didn't.

by media types like Chuck Todd playing devil's advocate for corporate profit. As far as I'm concerned, the matter is settled. He's a creep who preyed on teenage girls.

it is bizarre to have a man of his age at the time, sign a young girls yearbook. Who would even think to make something like that up, of all things.
