Well break it all down in tonights breaking news opening monologue. All right. Tonight before we explain the allegations judge roy moore and louis c. K. , i want to be crystal clear. I said this repeatedly on my radio show today. People on the left are trying to take it out of context when i speak about this for nearly two hours. Geraldo is a witness. If what people are accused of is true, its beyond reprehensible. Beyond disgusting, beyond shameful. In the case of judge moore, if its true, he should step aside and leave the senate race. Everyone would agree a 32yearold man pursuing a 14yearold girl is disgusting. Thats something that we should all agree on. This should transcend politics. However, everyone has the right to defend their name. Our goal on this show is always to find the truth. Heres the allegations tonight. A woman is alleging to the Washington Post that back in 1979 when she was 14 years old, she had a sexual encounter. Actually two of them with roy moore. The woman alleged that moore kissed her. In another occasion, that moore touched her and guided her hand to touch him. She claimed no other Sexual Conduct took place. She described the incident to the Washington Post by stating i wanted it over with, i wanted out. Just get this over with. Whatever it is, get it over. The woman said that she asked moore to take her home which he did. Three other more are accusing him of Sexual Misconduct. The women are alleging that moore pursued romantic relationships with them and one allegation involved kissing. Judge moore tonight is adamantly denying the allegations against him. He told the Washington Post these allegations are false and they are a desperate political attack by the National Democratic party and the Washington Post on this campaign. In a separate state, moore said the Washington Post has endorsed the opponent of moore and they have had a Systematic Campaign to distort the truth about the judges record and career and derail his campaign. Two days ago, the foundation for moral law sent a retraction demand for the false stories they wrote about the judges work. They call this garbage the definition of fake news and intentional defamation. Judge moore tweeted the obama, clinton machines, liberal media lap dogs have launched the most vicious and nasty round of attacks against me i have ever faced. Were in the midst of a spiritual battle with those that want to silence our message. The forces of evil will lie, cheat, steal, inflict physical harm if they believe it was silence and shut up christians, conservatives like you and me. I believe you and i have a duty to stand up and fight back against the forces of evil waging a war on our conservative values. Our nation is at acrossroads right now spiritually and politically. Our children and grandchildrens futures are on the line. Rest assured, i will never give up the fight. These are very serious allegations. Of course they have to be investigated to the fullest extent. Were finding out almost every single day now Sexual Misconduct, sexual abuse, its a widespread problem in this country. Its morally repugnant. In any of these cases, its sometimes you have to look at the truth here. How do we ascertain what happened 38 years ago . Im a father of a daughter. Im a brother to sisters. Its scary when you hear about these predators. With these allegations against judge moore, this happened 38, nearly 40 years ago. At the same time, this is a very delicate question, but we have to bring it up. Do some women wait because theyre too scared . Too upset . Too traumatized to come forward . As i said on my radio show tonight, of course theyre afraid. I can understand that. We can all understand why no one would want to come forward and speak about such trauma. On the other hand, we have to pursue truth, which at times can be very difficult like threading a needle. Its a razors edge. If in this case lets say the allegations turned out to be not true, where would judge moore to go to get his good name back before an election december 12 . The bottom line, this should be a nonpartisan issue. We should be for civil rights and a civil society. Petty politics should be put aside. I want to give you a quick History Lesson they learned early on. Office local radio host in atlanta. Rich Richard Jewel . They thought he was the hero first. I was on the radio the morning that the Atlanta Journal constitution said that Richard Jewel who we thought was a hero fit the profile of the lone bombner the 1996 olympics case because jewell lived with his mother. I didnt know it at the time. Richard jewell was listening to my radio show when i said wait a minute. Because he lives with his mother doesnt mean hes a bomber. I said it on the air at the time. Just because you live with your mother doesnt make you a bomber. Many people were quick to rush to judgment. Back in 1997, i had the chance to interview jewell. I didnt know he was listening to my show at the time. He said at the time that the reason he gave me one of the first interviews is because i was the only one in the media that didnt rush to judgment. Incredible lesson. Watch this. Richard jewell, 33, a former Law Enforcement officer fits the profile of the lone bomber. This profile includes a white man, a former Police Officer a member of military or police wanttobe who seeks to become a hero. You see that in the newspaper. What did you think . Well, you know, it wasnt me. You know, id like to know where they got their profile from. You know, several parts of that, you know, police wanttobe. In the state of georgia, im a certified peace officer. Im just not currently working for a police department. Sean this case in my life in 1996 changed my life. It made me realize you cannot rush to judgment. Lets look at examples where many of my socalled colleagues and others rush to judgment. Look at the duke lacrosse case. I didnt rush to judgment. College students had their lives ruineded when they were falsely accused to rape. They were convicting these kids before the truth ever came out. No benefit of the reasonable doubt. No presumption of innocence. A group of 88 duke professors without any evidence signed their names to a paid advertisement in a duke School Newspaper that read regardless of the results of the police investigation, as a parent every day now is the anger and fear of many students that know themselves to be objects of racism and sexism who see illuminated in this moments extraordinary spotlight what they live with every day. That was a rush to judgment. And i said it was at the time. Almost everybody smeared and slandered those three duke lacrosse players, wanted to throw them in jail. Turned out they didnt do it. How many times have you heard me condemn former president obama that he rushed to judgment in high profile race cases while ignoring massive amounts of violence in his adoptive hometown of chicago. You may remember this. The Cambridge Police acted stupidly. Theres a long history in this country of African Americans and latinos being stopped by Law Enforcement disproportionately. Thats just a fact. The African American community is knowledgeable that there is a history of Racial Disparities in the application of our criminal laws. Theres a big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as if because of the color of their skin they are not being treated the same. Sean the president , a lawyer, from that position rushed to judgment every time. As i pointed out many times was completely wrong every time. Hands up, dont shoot turned out to be a lie. George zimmerman was found innocent in the Trayvon Martin case by a jury of his peers. All of the cops in the freddie gray case were acquitted. I was right on all of these cases. In other words, one of the reasons i have been right in so many of my bratty friends in the media that are overpaid like fake jake tapper, they rush to judgment. I dont. Jake, listen to the two hours of my radio show today. Its one of the reasons we have been more right than wrong. Were not always right. When were wrong, well tell you. We here on this program, we didnt say hands up dont shoot. We were right on freddie gray and the Cambridge Police. Every person in this country deserves the presumption of innocence with the allegations against judge moore, none of us know the truth of what happened 38 years ago. The only people that know that are the people involved in this incident. Another perfect example. When it came some say hannity when it came to bill clintons Sexual Misconduct, hillary called it a conspiracy. Never called out her husband. Unlike the left, i actually worked, reported, did my research. I went and interviewed all of these women. I looked them in the eyes. Interviewed them. Let them share their stories. I id my job. They should do theirs in the media. You described the scene where he was biting on your lip and when it was all over, he was leaving. Said you better put some ice on that. Yeah. And casually put on his sunglasses and walked out the door. It was a terrible ordeal for me. No woman should be subjected to it. It was an assault. He assaulted yes . Yes. He touched, grabbed, fondled and kissed you against your will . Yes. Its an allegation that is not made by one woman, but multiple women. Many of us. He pulled down his he sat down, pulled down his pants, his everything. He was exposed. I said im not that kind of girl. I need to be getting back to my desk. Sean many of these cases, democrat for politics, political reasons said these women should not be believed. I dont think they ever interviewed him. James carville said he drag add 100 bill through a trailer park for paula jones. We cant forget the clinton foundation. Really . Democrats care so much . On this show we have been the most outspoken about hillary taking millions of dollars from countries like saudi arabia, qatar, kuwait, the uae. They have the most horrendous human rights records in terms of how they abuse women. How they kill gays and lesbians for being who they are and christians and jews. I dont remember anybody else in the media talking about it. Nobody should be pointing fingers and passing judgment. We have to know the truth. This is an issue that transcend political ideology. Sadly Sexual Misconduct in america is rampant. Dustin hoffman apologized after two women accused him of Sexual Misconduct. They admitted it. Kevin spacey accused of a costing young teen boys. Remember roman polaniski . He pled guilty to raping a 13yearold girl after he gave her quaaludes and booze. Was quoted as saying afterwards shes a double victim. He still escaped from justice. And of course, we all know now about the allegations swirling around Harvey Weinstein that also checked into rehab. And lewis c. K. Is convicted of committing multiple act of lewd conduct. I cant stand louis c. K. Does he deserve the presumption of innocence . Everybody america done. We invited him to come on. The accusers of judge moore are welcome here. This brings us to judge moore. Any accusation of Sexual Misconduct is beyond deeply disturbing. I say that as a father, as a brother. Every person in this country deserves the right, the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. We should have learned a lot from duke and a lot from ferguson and a lot from what happened in florida with Trayvon Martin. We should have learned a lo with the Cambridge Police. Should have learned a lot from a lot of people. However some members of congress seem to have forgotten this basic right, even john mccain. He said the allegations are deeply disturbing and disqualifying. The allegations . He should step aside and allow the people of alabama to elect a candidate they can be proud of. What happened, senator, to the presumption of innocence . What if someone came out tomorrow and said something about you that was false, senator mccain . We dont know. We have to stand up against predatory behavior. As i said, these are complicated issues. More complicated. I would ask every american, learn the lesson that i learned in atlanta. Learn the lesson that i have now applied to all of these cases and why i turn out more often right than wrong than my media friends who always rush to judgment. You have to make a decision. Go interview these people and make another decision. Base it on your own experience, your fact, your believe ability, the people you talk to like i did when i interviewed Juanita Broderick and paula jones and many of the other women that accused bill clinton. Here with reaction tonight, fox news analyst, geraldo rivera, mercedes cohen. I have to start with a personal issue with you. Media matters has been on a witch hunt to get me fired. I did almost two hours on radio on this topic. Did i sound any different than what i sounded like on tv . Absolutely not. I lament the fact that people are seizing on what i do believe was a you misspoke in one sentence. One sentence. Do i deserve two hours of radio . The clarity of it is, you said that your subject, the person you interviewed, said it was consensual i thought she was talking about the 18yearold and the 17yearold. Regardless, we clear it up. You cannot consent if youre under age. Its impossible. You know that. Sean the one line was wrong. The entire thrust of your show was to say how deplorable if true these allegations sean the one line was wrong. I misspoke. The reaction is symptomatic of a larger situation. We have a tendency to believe what we want to believe and disbelieve what we dont want to believe. The classic example is bill clinton and the oval office. We didnt believe the paula jones and them. Yet the trump allegation theres the hotel room in moscow much more farceical and denied as opposed to proven facts in the clinton oval office. In moscow, you hate trump, you want to believe that something bad went down, something, you know, seedy went down. I dont like roy moores politics. I dont like his position on gays and muslims. I want to believe this is true about roy moore because i dont like him. But you have to stop yourself and say what it is what is provable, what is not provable . What about the statute of limitations . 38 years. Is there did she write a note, have a diary, tell her mom . What happened exactly sean called her mom ten years later. Thats why you have statutes of limitations. Witnesses are unreliable, et cetera. Sexual harassment is real. Theres predators out there. As a father, it scares the crap out of me. Does. Are there also times in duke where people make false allegations . Are there times when people lie for political purposes . Undoubtedly, sean. I represented hundreds of Corporate Executives that have been accused of Sexual Misconduct. When they get these individuals in the courtroom, when you get them under cross examination, they fall apart. Theyre flexing their muscles, lawyered up, fighting for their right. Ive been victimized. This is what happened to me. If they fall apart because sean you have seen hundreds of these cases . Yes. Sean have people lied for money . Undoubtedly. And the Reputational Risk is at hand. The brand of the corporations are at hand. So many cases, especially now in the climate were in, people are say maybe we should settle before the complaints are filed. Once its filed, its like the allegations become suddenly actually occurred and its not true. Sean youre not a fan of judge moore. You said it on this program. I did. Before the primary actually. Sean i remember. Unfit to serve because not once but twice he was removed from office for defying federal judicial decisions on constitutional matters which he add not allowed to do under the supremacy clause. Having said that, im suspicious of this. Because of the source. The Washington Post which has a dog in this fight having endorsed his opponent. The timing of it on the eve of an election. And finally, he was a huge and has been a huge public figure in alabama. The best known son of alabama in many ways. Yet none of this came to surface in almost four decades. So that gives me reason to question the credibility of these people. Im glad you brought up duke lacrosse. I covered that case. Sean i know you did. Three lives were ruled when crystal magnum lied about accusations of rape. Shes now behind bars and convicted of murder. I didnt know that. Killed her boyfriend. Stabbed him to death. Sean i learned Richard Jewell woke me up. When he told me i remember the first time i talked to him. He goes thank you. Thank you. Youre like they were crucifying this guy. Then he became the profile of a lone bomber. The Atlanta Journal constitution. They have since paid a lot of money like the duke lacrosse case. The problem is, you make these assumptions and presumptions and proclamations. Theyre not proof. Now we have the academic of Sexual Harassment allegations and rape claims among very well known people. What has to happen is you need the same standards in this aspect of criminal law as you do with every other crime. There has to be some corroboration. Why not ask for some corroboration . There is a feeding frenzy right now that is extremely distressful to me. Im not sure that in mercedes case that in the hundreds of Sexual Harassment cases, the complaining witnesses fall apart. Some of that is good lawyering. Some is effective. Theres no evidence to back the claim. I just want us to slow down before innocent lives are ruined. With louis c. K. , does doing in real life what his comedy is. Thats why you know, its awful, horrifying. Yet thats what the reason roy moore is so delectable to the left, its a hypocritical situation where
