Accuser vs accused: What both sides say in latest assault claim against Virginia Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax

http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/nation/2019/02/08/i-not-resign-what-both-sides-say-va-dispute-fairfax-statements-sex-assault-rape-meredith-watson/2818028002/

Amid a widening scandal in Virginia state government, Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax was accused Friday by a former Duke University student of a sexual assault in 2000.

Below are the statements by both the attorney for the accuser, Meredith Watson, and Fairfax himself.

Nancy Erika Smith, attorney for Watson:

We serve as counsel for Meredith Watson, who was raped by Justin Fairfax in 2000, while they were both students at Duke University. Mr. Fairfax's attack was premeditated and aggressive. The two were friends but never dated or had any romantic relationship.

Ms. Watson shared her account of the rape with friends in a series of emails and Facebook messages that are now in our possession. Additionally, we have statements from former classmates corroborating that Ms. Watson immediately told friends that Mr. Fairfax had raped her.

Ms. Watson was upset to learn that Mr. Fairfax raped at least one other woman after he attacked her. The details of Ms. Watson's attack are similar to those described by Dr. Vanessa Tyson.

Re: "Second Woman Comes Forward to Accuse VA Lt. Gov Justin Fairfax of Sexual Assault"Lt. Governor Fairfax believes that Governor Northam is behind the rape allegations. Northam's reasoning is supposedly to ensure that he won't be removed from office if an accused rapist is next in line.

But there's another possibility, which is that if Fairfax is the first one to be ousted, then Northam gets to replace him. That would ensure that the seat would go to someone Northam likes, and that it would never be turned over to the GOP's Kirk Cox, third in line. That could be the real goal.
