I read half a dozen articles. Can’t find any actual credible supporting evidence regarding the allegation.

Based on the story it’s a five year old allegation, and supposedly two friends of the alleged victim are claiming she mentioned something in the past, but can’t be certain when, and she never named Platner.

Nobody finds the timing coincidental? Dude wins the dem nomination and suddenly this drops. He’s been running for how long? In the public spotlight and the better part of a year and nothing. Yet when he wins and is a huge problem for republicans and established Dems it drops.

Not saying guilty or innocent. I’m saying I’m so sick of men’s lives being ruined by an allegation. Especially one that doesn’t appear to be supported in any way shape or form. Not just that, he won the Dem nomination by a wide margin. He has very progressive views. So why now?

It’s almost like the fastest way to ruin a man’s life is to claim he sexually assaulted someone, cause apparently context, timing, length of time that’s passed, and any actual evidence doesn’t matter. If he actually did it and there is evidence I have zero issue, but until we see something, anything relating to being charged and convicted, this should never be allowed.

If anyone has seen any additional info please post it. I’m open minded and willing to admit when I’m wrong, but I couldn’t find anything.
