Justin Fairfax Accuser Calls For Virginia Lt. Gov to Resign; Details Alleged Assault: I Was Choking and Gaggingby Ken Meyer | Apr 1st, 2019, 8:15 am
Vanessa Tyson got emotional on Monday as she gave an interview to CBS and shared graphic details about her claim that Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax sexually assaulted her years ago.
Tyson drew media attention approximately two months ago when she came forward with her claim that Fairfax forced himself on her when they met at a Democratic convention in Boston back in 2004. As she spoke to Gayle King about how she knew Fairfax and wound up inside of his hotel room, Tyson recalled how she was surprised when Fairfax started kissing her.
While she said the kissing wasnt unwelcome and was completely consensual, Tyson described how she and Fairfax ended up on his bed, and she started crying when she recalled the moment when its like my neck didnt work.

(4,384 posts)Green River Killer Gary Ridgway passed one also. It is not hard to do. Many factors are involved. For all I know Fairfax lies to himself all the time, kind of like DT. Child molesters talk about children seducing them. It is the way these perps think.

No coordination at all of all this, noooooooooooooooooo.
Next up: JFK and Marilyn Monroe!

(54,365 posts)Why is it news for two weeks, silence for 2 months, and then flares up within 48 hours of Joe Biden's "offense," which was 5 years ago, and suddenly is remembered at a time when his popularity is perceived as a threat to another candidate his accuser is close to?
If the timing of these accusations is a complete coincidence, so be it.
All the same, the likelihood of this being indeed a complete coincidence strikes me as rather remote.

As it turns out, I just am skeptical of strings of coincidences.
I've been on DU for nearly 13 years, and have been with the same wonderful woman for 45 years. Your creds don't matter to me, but you haven't been around long. It might be worth your while to check out who you're calling this or that before it becomes a habit.
Youre the real thing!
And it warms my heart to hear you say what youre saying here. I just wish more would hear it.

(55,445 posts)She doesn't get to try this case in the court of public opinion and snipe Fairfax from the safety of some cushy network news studio...
If she wants **JUSTICE**, then she knows what she needs to do, and that is officially press charges in Massachusetts... And no, Fairfax resigning from a job he's already leaving in two years anyway is NOT justice...
And if Tyson still refuses to press charges I'm perfectly within my rights to ask why...
