Authorities in Portland just said former Vice President Al Gore won’t face charges in connection with a massage therapist who alleged he groped her and sexually abused her a few years back.
ABC News:
Former Vice President Al Gore did not commit acts of sexual harassment “appropriate for criminal prosecution,” according to office of the district attorney of Portland, Oregon, which has been investigating allegations that Gore made unwanted advances to a masseuse at a Portland hotel in 2006.
An Oregon woman, Molly Hagerty, claimed that Gore propositioned her and tried to hug her when she came to his hotel room to give him a massage.
But Senior Deputy District Attorney Don Rees, in a memo to the D.A., Michael D. Schrunk, wrote that Hagerty gave no indication afterwards that she was upset, as she later claimed.
