Personally I think Al is getting a bad rap on this one. He may be a lot of things, a scam artist, liar, delusional, etc, but I don't think he's a rapist. A masseuse comes to your hotel room at 11 pm and charges you 530 bucks for a massage, and gets offended when you try to get a little manual release? WTF???
Portland, Oregon , police have decided to reopen the investigation into a 54-year-old masseuse's allegations that former Vice President Al Gore sexually assaulted her in his hotel room in 2006.
Massage therapist Molly Haggerty claims Gore "pinned" her and assaulted her.
"The Portland Police Bureau has made the decision to re-open the case regarding the allegations brought forward against Mr. Al Gore," a statement posted on the Portland Police Bureau's website this evening said.
"Consistent with our policy regarding open investigations, the Police Bureau will not be commenting on any additional specifics regarding this case at this time," it said.
A family spokeswoman said today that the Gores welcomed the new investigation.
"Further investigation into this matter will only benefit Mr. Gore," Kalee Kreider said. "The Gores cannot comment on every defamatory, misleading, and inaccurate story generated by tabloids. Mr. Gore unequivocally and emphatically denied this accusation when he first learned of its existence three years ago. He stands by that denial."
