Sharon Bialek is the forth woman to accuse GOP Presidential candidate and co-frontrunner Herman Cain of sexual harassment, and on Monday she became the first to take her accusations public.
Below is the video from Monday afternoon’s press conference. Bialek’s graphic account contained details about the alleged meeting at a hotel between herself and Cain. Bialek claims Cain upgraded her room suite, took her to dinner, drove her around town, and eventually parked and made sexual advances on her.
Bialek cited her reasoning for bringing the allegations forward at this time is to bring a face to the women who have alleged Cain’s misconduct and represent all women dealing with sexual harassment. Bialek is represented by Gloria Allred, though the two have said there is no plan to sell the story or file a lawsuit against Cain.
“Just as the country finally begins to refocus on our crippling $15 trillion national debt and the unacceptably high unemployment rate, now activist celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred is bringing forth more false accusations against the character of Republican front-runner Herman Cain,” Cain spokesman J.D. Gordon said in a statement. “All allegations of harassment against Mr. Cain are completely false. Mr. Cain has never harassed anyone. Fortunately the American people will not allow Mr. Cain’s bold ’9-9-9 Plan,’ clear foreign policy vision and plans for energy independence to be overshadowed by these bogus attacks.”
