    I know. I have decided to believe all victims, until proven otherwise, but I see how bad the optics are.

      That’s my general practice as well, but I feel compelled to make an exception in her case. She needs to earn back my trust (what little there was to begin with).

        It really doesn’t help that she falsely accused someone of assault over a handshake like 3 months ago. Or that she spray painted her own property to claim she was being targeted by the dreaded antifa. To say that she has a history of history of attacking her opponents this way would be an understatement.
