http://www.rawstory.com/2016/11/joy-behar-demands-to-know-why-were-talking-about-clinton-emails-and-not-trumps-rape-case/Thats when Behar cut in with her zinger. I have a question, she began. Why is it that maybe I dont know the law that well but there was no investigation until after the election of fraud at Trump University. Thats after the election were going to hear about that. Then there are these allegations from 11 women about sexual assault. Well hear about that after the election. Politifact has called Trump the biggest liar of the year. He lies about everything. He has a shady past regarding his foundation
He also has a rape case pending in federal court, Hostin cut in.
Well, that okay. So, these are the things, as an American citizen, why am I only listening about somebodys e-mails? Behar asked. Why am I not hearing from the authorities about these cases?

(2,056 posts)I can file a civil case against you and say that you molested my baby when they were 6 months old and shot my dog. I can file the paperwork and a hearing will be scheduled. Let's say all the major news networks decided to believe my word over yours just because there was a case and slandered your name all over the media and labelled you a child molester for the rest of your life. You'd probably sue the shit out of everyone, right?
That's why the media isn't running with this story. The plaintiff has NOT GONE to the media directly to be interviewed so they can at least cover their asses to show that they investigated.
You can't just print hearsay and accusations all willy nilly unless you want to be sued.
THAT is why that rape accusation case is not being covered.

(816 posts)Out of all the scandals this one should be front and center. They have a photographer who used to attend these parties trump gave for business men and under aged models. This fits with what the woman suing him said. She was invited by a woman who was recruiting under aged models for a party in trump towers. That's when it happened. Plenty of drugs as well.
