Contradicting Lawyer, Cain Accuser Says She’s Reluctant To Speak



Nov 2, 2011 5 Comments ›› Pat Dollard

WASHINGTON (AP) — Despite her lawyer’s claims, a woman who accused Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain of sexual harassment in the 1990s is reluctant to talk about the episode in public.

A person close to the situation said Wednesday that no decision has been made about asking the National Restaurant Association to release the woman from a confidentiality agreement that was part of her settlement. Cain led the trade group while the woman worked there.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the accusations and says the fact that the incident has become public is very unsettling to the woman. Joel P. Bennett is a lawyer for the woman and said Tuesday he was asking the restaurant association to release his client from the confidentiality agreement.

    ” the fact that the incident has become public is very unsettling to the woman”………

    Tough shit lady….If you’re gonna charge someone and then back away because it’s “unsettling”, then don’t bring the charge!

    Besides, you were paid, and charge/s were dropped/sealed in a legal process, you can’t  re-open the case without both parties in agreement! Now STFU
    and either let it go or go thru the public embarrasment that is so “unsettling”
    It sounds more like you are worried that your testimony would’nt stand up because you’d have to perjure yourself!

    These types of claims have ruined men’s lives.  I personally would be happy if someone told me I had a nice ass.
