    Virginia's Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax must resign immediately. Two different women have not only accused him of sexual assault, an overwhelming amount of evidence exists that they reported the assaults to friends & family years ago. He should also be criminally investigated.

        Read this. In the year 2000, at Duke University, moments after she said she was forcefully raped by Justin Fairfax, Meredith Watson came to her friend, Kaneedreck Adams, now an attorney, crying to report the rape. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/virginia-politics/second-woman-accuses-va-lt-gov-justin-fairfax-of-sexual-assault/2019/02/08/19e6bb6c-2bdf-11e9-b011-d8500644dc98_story.html?utm_term=.6a2c5e37bfde …pic.twitter.com/SC9eBet47o

        Possibly...but do the investigation. Make them “all” submit to a polygraph. I can’t just be someone’s word. Hell I think @KamalaHarris sexually assaulted me. Do y’all believe me?

        Polygraph’s rest nothing but how nervous/stressed out someone is. People who generally get more nervous/stressed/anxious will likely fail the test even if they’re telling the truth. People who lie easily likely will pass the test even if they’re lying

        How are these allegations credible if no criminal charges were ever filed. Ms Watson said she went to the school and told the Dean, so you mean the school just said fuck it. Fairfax has been in the public square for a few years why after he is seated that this come out?

        So with that logic, Duke Univ should suffer for not reporting and investigating an allegation of rape on their campus. They should lose Title IX funding same as Baylor Univ.

        Makes you wonder why Duke Univ isn't receiving some scrutiny over this, but we know. All I know is if they draft impeachment on him BEFORE Northam it will tell me all I need to know about my Dems and I too will be filing papers to be Independent.

        I am one of the first to believe victims of all types of violence & abuse with proof. However, I hope that no one is getting to the point of advocating that defendants be held as guilty until proven innocent. It must remain the other way around or everyone will begin to lose out.

        Why? Would you believe me if I said some prominent female politician sexually harassed me during a campaign event? Just take my word for it?

        And I should come out of nowhere three days later claiming on a letter written by my attorney that this same woman raped me back in 2000 when I worked at a telecommunications store she paid her bill at, where I told coworkers IMMEDIATELY after it happened, but not police.

        Facebook was founded in 2004 so how was something shared in 2000? Why now, why not during his campaigns? Innocent until proven guilty????
