A breakdown of accusations against Senate nominee Roy Moore

Eight women have publicly accused Republican Senate nominee Roy Moore of inappropriate conduct, ranging from unwanted attention to assault. Roy Moore has called the allegations “completely false” and denied knowing Leigh Corfman and Beverly Nelson, who have respectively alleged sexual misconduct and assault. Most of the alleged incidents took place in Gadsden between 1977 and 1982, when Moore worked as an assistant district attorney. Moore has not denied pursuing relationships with teenagers but says he can’t remember or that it was outside his “customary behavior.”

Leigh Corfman: Corfman said she was 14 when Moore, then 32, struck up a conversation with her outside the Etowah County Courthouse in 1979 while her mother went inside for a custody hearing. Corfman told the Washington Post that Moore took her to his home a few days later, undressed her and “touched her over her bra and underpants . . . and guided her hand to touch him over his underwear.” The age of consent in Alabama, both then and now, is 16.

Beverly Nelson: Nelson said at a press conference Monday that Moore was a regular at the Gadsden diner where she worked in 1977, when she was 16. Nelson said Moore offered to drive her home one night, but instead drove the car into an alley behind the restaurant where Nelson said he began groping her and, at one point, grabbed her neck and attempted to force her head into his crotch. Nelson said she thought Moore “was going to rape me.” Nelson said Moore then tried to silence her, saying ‘you’re just a child, and I am the district attorney. If you tell anyone about this, no one will believe you.’”

Gena Richardson: Richardson, then about 18, said Moore approached her in 1977 when she worked in the men’s department at Sears. Richardson said Moore pursued her for a date — to the point of calling her high school to have a conversation with her while she was in class — before she agreed. Richardson said Moore gave her a forceful and unwanted kiss and that she avoided Moore when he shopped there subsequently.

Tina Johnson: Johnson said Moore, then an attorney in private practice, made her uncomfortable with his flirting during a meeting on legal business in 1991. Johnson said after concluding her business with Moore, he grabbed her buttocks.

Gloria Deason: Deason said she was 18 and Moore 32 when they began dating. Deason said their physical relationship did not progress beyond kissing and hugging, but said she believed Moore ordered wine or cocktails for her, when she was under the then-legal drinking age of 19.

Wendy Miller: Miller said she first met Moore when she was 14 and working as a Santa’s helper at the Gadsden Mall. Two years later, she said, Moore began asking her out on dates which she declined and which her mother forbade.

Debbie Wesson Gibson: Gibson said she began dating Moore in 1981, shortly after he spoke to her high school civics class. She was 17 at the time and Moore was 34. Gibson said they dated for two or three months and that they kissed twice.

Becky Gray: Gray said Moore pursued her for dates when she was a 22-year-old working at Pizitz at the Gadsden Mall. She told the Washington Post that Moore was “persistent in a way that made her uncomfortable,” including lingering in her section or by the bathroom area.
