Breaking news, House Minority leader nancy pelosi is calling for an ethics investigation into tony c cardanez. This is a really complex case, basically what happened last friday was that lisa bloom, a very well known lawyer in los angeles filed a lawsuit against an unnamed politician. Saying he had sexually assaulted a then 16yearold girl in 2007 and while driving her to the hospital the allegation is that this politician was playing golf with the 16yearold girl. Handed her some water that tasted unusual, she collapsed and then he insisted on driving her to the hospital. While driving her there, this alleged Sexual Assault took place. Many news organizations had been chasing this, obviously, because the details in the complaints pointed to representative cardenas. His lawyer came out on thursday, and said he was the subject of these allegations. But they were 100 categorically false. So thats where it stands now. Hes going to fight them. Hes up for reelection. So this really puts democrats in a bind with in the Political Climate of the me too movement, which is what this young woman said inspired her to come forward. They could potentially lose this seat in november, depending on how this ends up in the court of public opinion. And then timing, of course. Cardenass camp would ask about timing. And it is the logical question, why not . Well, certainly you have to wonder about the political ramifications here. He certainly has his political enemies out there, and he is suggesting that the victim may be the subject of manipulation by her father who was a long time former employee of tony cardenas. We have attempted to reach the father in every way we can, we have not been able to get comments from him on those allegations by cardenas, clearly there are lots of political head winds here, and the next step will be a hearing before a judge who will decide under California Law whether this case has the merits to go forward. And at that point, his name would become public in the court documents. So cardenas has only responded in that lengthy statement saying these are categorically untrue, and that he is basically specially being falsely accused here. Fred . Mave, thank you so much. The attorney for the alleged victim lisa bloom. While the complaint filed said it was an elected politician, and now you have the House Minority leader saying an investigation needs to involve tony cardenas. Is he the elected official . I filed this case very careful carefully. We have to name the defendant as a john doe until the court gives us permission to put his real name in the case. Thats the reason why i have not been able to confirm or deny the identity of the defendant. It is very curious that even though we have not named him, hes come out and said, these child sexual abuse allegations sound like theyre against me. Thats one of the more telling situations ive everybody heard of. Were waiting for the court to grant us leave, and put the proper name of the defendant in the case and go forward from there. Yours is a civil suit. Yes. Pelosi is talking about an ethics investigation. How might the two compliment one another or conflict . Well, assuming that it is a u. S. Congressman, which im not confirming or denies at this point, i would say i have not had good experiences taking my victims before the house ethics committee. I represented miriam brown who accused john conyers of Sexual Harassment a few months ago. Weve had very poor treatment from the house ethics committee. There are not rulings set up to protect victims, theres a lot of silence, you cant get information. The hearing would get cancelled, we dont know whats going on, we dont know what her rights are, until those rules get changed, i dont know whether i would want to take my victim in front of that company. And then, lisa, the complaint is zeroing in on 2007. And a 16yearold young lady at the time, allegedly sexually battered and assaulted. Just doing the math, now were talking about 27 years old for this victim. Talk to me about the timing. Thats the first question anyone would have about why this is being pursued. What all of the research about child sexual abuse tells us, very few victims complain at the time. Some people take decades, ive had clients in their 40s, 50s, 60s talking about child sexual abuse for the first time. Its especially true when the perpetrator is a high profile person. My client is very determined to see this through, to get justice, to tell her truth, her story, and thats what this case is all about. This is the only legal way that she can go about this, the criminal statute of limitations has expired. The civil statute of limitations has not. Thats why we spent months and months behind the scenes as we do with any of my cases. Talking to her, going over her story. Talking to her witnesses, looking at the corroborative evidence. I believe shes credible, and i believe we have a strong case. And were looking forward to getting into the courtroom and proving that case. Thank you for your time. Thank you. Well be right back.

Any word from the state dipt, anyone about those detainees and whether theyre the subject of some kind of negotiations . Weve been tracking that, and waiting to hear a date for the summit between President Trump and kim jongun. So far we only get signals. We know there are lots of reports out there, some of them coming from south korea, that the detainees have been moved. We heard from Rudy Giuliani that theyre going to be released any time now, but we havent gotten any confirmation on what exactly is their status, officially, where are they, and when are they going to be back on u. S. Soil. I think its safe to say a couple things, its safe to say the u. S. Would not want to have this meeting between the two leaders if these detainees were not going to be released. We can expect to see them released. I would bet money on it, before this summit is going to happen. We dont know the date of this summit. Also its safe to say theres a lot going on behind the scenes. Trying to get these people home and soon. John kerry is trying to salvage the iran nuclear deal. Its unusual to hear about a former secretary of state to work this, this is what weve been seeing from many people who worked on the iran deal o for a long time to make it happen. Everyone is trying to lobby. For former secretary kerry, hes been meeting with people as high up as the Iranian Foreign minister, with european leaders. Its kind of like this influence campaign behind the scenes and hes been working with former state Department People he worked alongside. Other people he worked on crafting the deal. Working together behind the scenes to try to ultimately change President Trumps mind at this point it seems like hes more than poised to pull out of it, fred. Michelle kosinski, thanks so much.
