Moore To Burden!

You lost Drudge. 
The sixth accuser came out to denounce Roy Moore. The Republican is still denying he sexually assault underage girls and young women.

Tina Johnson comes forth to discuss an incident with the embattled senatorial candidate. Johnson spoke to al.com to discuss her experience with Roy Moore.

She described him as a lawyer who was just too flirty with her. She remember wearing a black dress and more compliment and her constantly on her appearance.

In 1991, she was going through a bitter divorce and she relied on Moore's services. The woman said that she could feel his breath creep up on her.

"He kept commenting on my looks, telling me how pretty I was, how nice I looked," recalled Johnson. "He was saying that my eyes were beautiful."
It made her uncomfortable. "I was thinking, can we hurry up and get out of here?"
Johnson was 28 years old, in a difficult marriage headed toward divorce, and unemployed. She was at the office to sign over custody of her 12-year-old son to her mother, with whom he'd been living. Her mother had hired Moore to handle the custody petition.
Johnson had two young daughters at the time with her then-husband, and her son said he wanted to live with his grandmother.
At one point during the meeting, she said, Moore came around the desk and sat on the front of it, just inches from her. He was so close, she said, she could smell his breath.
According to Johnson, he asked questions about her young daughters, including what color eyes they had and if they were as pretty as she was. She said that made her feel uncomfortable, too.
Once the papers were signed, she and her mother got up to leave. After her mother walked through the door first, she said, Moore came up behind her.
It was at that point, she recalled, he grabbed her buttocks.
"He didn't pinch it; he grabbed it," said Johnson. She was so surprised she didn't say anything. She didn't tell her mother.
She said she told her sister years later how Moore had made her feel uncomfortable during that meeting. Her sister told AL.com she remembers the conversation.
Tina Johnson comes forth with allegations of sexual assault by Roy Moore.
Johnson reached out to AL.com earlier this week to talk about her experience with Moore. 
AL.com located the court documents from 1991, detailing the custody transfer. Cofield's petition for custody is signed by Roy S. Moore, attorney. It lists his address as 924 Third Avenue, Gadsden.
Johnson has had ups and downs in her life, both before and after she met Moore. She has pled guilty to writing bad checks, and for third-degree theft of property, which she said stemmed from family disagreement over the care of her late stepfather.
Since marrying her husband, Morris Johnson, in 2010, she said she has been working to improve her life.
"I'm not perfect," she said. "I have things in my background and I know (the public) will jump on anything, but (what happed with Moore) is still the truth, and the truth will stand when the world won't."
Johnson, who is now disabled, considers herself a devout Christian and regularly attends a church near her home in Gadsden.  She said she is not political and doesn't follow politics. She said she has not spoken with Moore since that day in his office, and does not know any of the five other women who have come forward with accusations against him.
"This is not a politics thing with me," she said. "It's more of a moral and religious thing." It has bothered her over the years to see Moore on TV, talking about his Christian faith.
She wanted to come forward publicly now, she said, because it's hard for victims of harassment to talk openly about their experiences.
"I want people know that it's OK to finally say something," she said. "I guess I'm ashamed I didn't say nothing, didn't turn around and slap him."
A spokesperson for the Roy Moore campaign contacted in advance had not given AL.com a response by publication time
Wow. There is a seventh accuser as well.

Kelly Harrison Throp was 17 years old when Moore came to her job at Red Lobster. The lawyer would often go in and flirt with her. He pulled on her hair and asked her if she would go out with him. She said no and got out the area quickly. She told her boss and family. This happened in 1982.

"He was a public figure in this small town," she said of Moore, who at the time was in his early 30s and the deputy district attorney for Etowah County. Later that year he would mount an unsuccessful campaign for circuit court judge.
Thorp said Moore asked her if she'd go out with him sometime.
"I just kind of said, 'Do you know how old I am?'" she recalled.
"And he said, 'Yeah. I go out with girls your age all the time.'"
Still in this race.
Thorp said she turned him down and told him she had a boyfriend. She said he then walked away.
Thorp said she later told a family member but did not tell the story publicly. She moved away from Gadsden the following year, and has just recently moved back. 
Thorp knows one of Moore's accusers, Leigh Corfman, who told The Washington Post that Moore had a sexual encounter with her when she was 14. Thorp believes Corfman's story and said she is proud of her for telling it publicly.
There's feuding brewing between white extremist/Breitbart News CEO Stephen Bannon and conservative agitator Matt Drudge.

Drudge labeled him "Judge Whore!"

This latest allegation broke only an hour after Moore's legal team demanded the fifth accuser to turn over her yearbook. Moore's lawyers said that the yearbook signature is fake and demands Gloria Allred to show them proof.

What a day. The Republican National Committee cut ties with Moore after allegations of Moore being banned from the Gadsden Mall after he was trolling young girls.
