Virginia Lt. Gov.'s accuser willing to testify at impeachment hearings: lawyers
By John Bowden - 02/09/19 11:16 PM EST
Lawyers representing a college professor who alleged Virginia Lieutenant Gov. Justin Fairfax (D) sexually assaulted her say their client is willing to testify at impeachment proceedings or to cooperate with law enforcement in an investigation of her claims.
In a statement Saturday night, attorneys Debra Katz and Lisa Banks write that Vanessa Tyson is "fully prepared" to testify under oath on her claim that Fairfax assaulted her at the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston.
"In response to two credible claims of sexual assault, by women with no connection to one another, Lt. Governor Fairfax has claimed that the women lied about what he insists were
consensual sexual encounters and has baselessly and callously attempted to discredit these women," Katz and Banks write.
