Why The New Child Rape Case Filed Against Donald Trump should Not Be Ignored

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/lisa-bloom/why-the-new-child-rape-ca_b_10619944.html

Most of you have probably already read about this alleged rape, but what I didn't know is that there is what appears to be a very credible witness who has come forward on this as well. The author is a civil rights attorney who represents women in sexual abuse cases every day and has carefully reviewed the federal complaint.

An anonymous “Jane Doe” filed a federal lawsuit against GOP presumptive nominee Donald Trump last week, accusing him of raping her in 1994 when she was thirteen years old. The mainstream media ignored the filing.

Jane Doe says that Mr. Trump “initiated sexual contact” with her on four occasions in 1994. Since she was thirteen at the time, consent is not an issue. If Mr. Trump had any type sexual contact with her in 1994, it was a crime.

On the fourth incident, she says Mr. Trump tied her to a bed and forcibly raped her, in a “savage sexual attack,” while she pleaded with him to stop. She says Mr. Trump violently struck her in the face. She says that afterward, if she ever revealed what he had done, Mr. Trump threatened that she and her family would be “physically harmed if not killed.” She says she has been in fear of him ever since.


The witness is “Tiffany Doe”, Mr. Epstein’s “party planner” from 1991-2000.

I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein . . . I swear to these facts under the penalty for perjury even though I fully understand that the life of myself and my family is now in grave danger.

There's lots of names to go around for the Lolita Express. I won't mention any at this time. So please, PLEASE investigate this horrific crime. Mr. Epstein has a lot of friends in high places. Some who even think they deserve better.

with little but a couple of paragraphs recounting the exploits of Epstein, and it didn't get into the actual statements made by the witness and Jane Doe; the issue about the other child, Maria; nor was it written by someone with the credentials to have analyzed the lawsuit.

The allegations of the rape by Ivana, I thought, were horrible when I first read them, but this is just beyond anything I could have imagined.

A child rapist is the worst thing you can be in any culture.

A registered sexual offender moved into our apartment complex. By law all the residents need to be warned and we all received fliers with his photo, offense, and photo of his car. He moved out shortly.

I mentioned to my gf I rather have folks think I killed somebody than think I was a child diddler. In the former they would think I was crazy and scary. In the latter they would think I was creepy as ----.

wants this to be ignored until September. Don't want McConnell and Ryan figuring out a way to throw out their tainted nominee until it's too late.

Or maybe even be called Bill Clinton???

Then it would be thoroughly investigated and pronounced "guilty" in the media and among the public.

Absolutely unbelievable that this 'man' is in the serious running for president. Does anyone doubt that given the power to appoint the AG he would ensure this never made it to court?

In his own words regarding Jeff Epstein the convicted paedophile..

I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life.


How the hell is this not being run on every major news network? What the hell is wrong with the country?
