Biden accuser Tara Reade filed a criminal complaint with DC police yesterday. My story, below https://www.businessinsider.com/former-biden-staffer-tara-reade-files-sexual-assault-complaint-2020-4?utmSource=twitter&utmContent=referral&utmTerm=topbar&referrer=twitter … via @businessinsider

And it’s important to note, it is not accurate to say that Reade did not name Biden in the police report she filed. Neither Reade or Biden were named on the public version of the complaint she filed, for obvious reasons.

Also worth noting that in my reporting I interviewed Reade’s younger brother, Collin Moulton, one of three people she told of the assault back in 1993. He went on the record.

Update: while it is typical for a criminal complaint filed out of statute--like the one Tara Reade filed against Joe Biden--to be closed/archived, DC Metro Police confirmed to me, 11 days later, "This is an active investigation..."

And
@UDelaware -- which houses the collection of Joe Biden's senatorial papers -- just confirmed to me that the papers "will remain closed to the public until two years after Mr. Biden retires from public life."Show this thread

This also fits the typical pattern of power abuse. File a complaint and lose responsibilities / get forced out.

Tara Reade was retaliated against in the workplace and could not secure employment in D.C.. she was blacklisted. Another life turned upside down and dreams abandoned due to sexual harassment and sexual assault.
