    Prosecutor: Al Gore was focus of sex crime inquiry in Portland

    Maxine Bernstein, The Oregonian
    Posted: 06/23/2010 3:32 PM

    The Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office confirmed today that a woman who alleged unwanted sexual contact by Al Gore reported it to police in 2006, and the prosecutor’s office was briefed by the Portland Police Bureau in late 2006 and January 2007.

    “We were told the woman was not willing to be interviewed by the Portland Police Bureau and did not want a criminal investigation to proceed,’’ Multnomah County District Attorney Michael Schrunk said, in a prepared statement.

    So basically a right-wing smear-job by an "unknown source" who filed a false police report and backed off rather than be prosecuted for it.

    Or the woman was bought and paid for so she wouldn't pursue her case.

    Not a lot to go on there. Anonymous person reports alleged assault several weeks afterwards to attorney, who contacts police but provides no details and cannot produce the victim.

    Not exactly a smoking gun.

    Al Gore's Portland Sexual Assault Charges

    http://www.kgw.com/news/National-En...ally-attacked-Portland-Masseuse-96995344.html

    What surprises me is not that it happened, but why the news media buried the story. Wait, this IS the People's Republic of Multnomah County. It all makes sense. On the other hand, the gal waited some time and it would not be unusual for a person to try and gain some fame or notoriety by making something up- remember Anita Hill? But I can understand why she didn't want this to become public.

    Re: Al Gore's Portland Sexual Assault Charges

    Any what is the story? It certainly isn't anything about charges being filed... more like police report taken... and any nutcase can call the police and get that to happen. Any why would someone file a police report and not try to prove it was true?

    Re: Al Gore's Portland Sexual Assault Charges

    Apparently, she told her attorney early on but was afraid of what might happen to her reputation, so she didn't report it. I get that. The fact it is now coming to light, and not from her, shows her concerns. To me, that lends more weight to her story.


    MY BAD! I JUST FOUND THE OTHER, EARLIER THREAD. MODS, PLEASE DELETE.

    If I were a "LMT" and knew I'd be going into some interesting situations, I'd carry a concealed recording device. Not only will it work well for what really happened, but it's great for potential blackmail.

    Damage the steller reputation of the massage therapist? I would say more likely just an attempt to extort money... regardless of whether anything happened or not.
