发帖数: 897 | 1 Singer Joy Villa—who gained widespread attention for her pro-Trump dress at
the Grammy’s—has accused Cory Lewandowski, President Trump’s former
campaign manager, of sexual misconduct.
The 31-year-old singer alleges that Lewandowski slapped her on the butt in
November during a holiday party at the Trump International Hotel in
Washington, D.C., Politico reports. Villa was reportedly introduced to
Lewandowksi for the first time, by a friend at the invite-only party.
Moments later, she claims that he inappropriately touched her.
“I’m wearing this silver suit and stretchy pants, and after the photo, he
smacks my ass really hard,” Villa told Politico. “It was completely
demeaning and shocking.”
Villa then warned him that she could take legal action.
“I said, ‘Watch it.’ Half-joking, I said, ‘I can report you for sexual
harassment.’”
Lewandowksi went on to slap her butt again, and according to Villa, said:
“Go ahead, I work in the private sector.”
The former campaign manager—who still remains in contact with the President
and recently attended a political strategy meeting at the White House—was
previously charged with simple battery after conservative journalist
Michelle Fields accused him of grabbing her following a news conference in
March 2016. Shortly after the news broke, Trump’s campaign released a
statement defending his innocence.
“Mr. Lewandowski is absolutely innocent of this charge. He will enter a
plea of not guilty and looks forward to his day in court,” the statement
read. “He is completely confident that he will be exonerated.”
Moments later, President Donald Trump also spoke out about the incident,
tweeting: “Wow, Corey Lewandowski, my campaign manager and a very decent
man, was just charged with assaulting a reporter. Look at tapes-nothing
there!”
Despite a video released by the police showing Lewandowski grabbing Fields,
he claims the incident never happened. He tweeted: “@MichelleFields you are
totally delusional. I never touched you. As a matter of fact, I have never
even met you.”
The charges were later dropped.
Fields, a former Breitbart reporter, took to Twitter to comment on Joy Villa
's allegations against Lewandowski. "I’m sure she’s just delusional & he
didn’t touch her. Probably doesn’t even know her," Fields tweeted, linking
to the Politico article on the incident. |
