Obviously an important story, but you grossly exaggerate when you use "corroborate" to refer to hearsay
Are you merely quoting him or implying he is correctly using the word? Because I think your tweet implies the latter and he is incorrectly using the word "corroborate"
Corroborate doesn't have to mean he was there. He presents evidence that it was known at the time that this assault took place and therefore that Ramirez's account is not something new or fabricated for political reasons.
Eye-witness testimony is not the only type of testimony which could be relevant, even in a court of law (which this is not)
I am not saying this isn't relevant, I think it is quite relevant, it just is not "corroboration". His evidence does not relate to proving her account occurred, all it does is prove that she has been making this claim for a long period of time.
So while it might rule out possible motivations for her account (such as if she made it up for political reasons), it does not help anyone ascertain the truth value of her claim itself
