Another woman has come forward to accuse Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her, adding to a list of more than a dozen women who have credibly accused him of similar inappropriate sexual behaviors and worse.
Stacey Williams, a former Sports Illustrated model, claims Trump groped her in 1993, while Jeffrey Epstein, who was later convicted of sex offenses, looked on. Williams spoke about the incident for the first time on CNN this week, as well as on a Zoom call with Survivors for Kamala, a group that’s unaffiliated with the campaign.
Williams shared the details of her first-ever encounter with Trump at his apartment in Trump Tower, which happened during a time when she was briefly dating Epstein. She told CNN that she didn’t talk about the incident for a long time, out of shame. “I felt a wave of shame, and I just couldn’t think about it, face it, talk about it for a very long time. I put it in a little box inside of me, turned the key, locked it,” she said.
“The second he was in front of me, he pulled me into him, and his hands were just on me and didn’t come off,” she told CNN in an interview. “Then the hands started moving, and they were on the side of my breasts, on my hips, back down to my butt … they were just on me the whole time.”
CNN corroborated Stacey Williams' story with three different friends who separately confirmed the details.
