Time For Paul To Disclose If Events Happened

Today the DSCC issued this press release:

As Rand Paul continues to duck the press in Kentucky, and avoid answering questions regarding his role in an alleged kidnapping, his accuser has finally come forth to reaffirm her side of the story. According to an exclusive interview with the Washington Post, Rand Paul’s accuser reaffirmed the “general outline” of the night in question and reiterated once again that Paul blindfolded her, tied her up, told her to partake in an illegal drug, and worship the “Aqua Buddha.” The woman goes on to say that Paul “took me out to this creek and made me worship Aqua Buddha.” She added that the whole episode was so “weird” that she ended contact with Paul afterward.

“Does Rand Paul think this woman is a liar?” said Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Communications Director Eric Schultz. “Rand Paul’s accuser confirms she was blindfolded, tied-up, and forced to worship a false God. Instead of running to his lawyers and to the national media, Paul should start answering questions from Kentuckians, who would like to know what really happened during the night in question.”

Paul continues to duck the Kentucky media and refuses to take questions from them regarding the night in question. According to the Lexington Herald-Leader, “reporters shouted questions to Paul late Tuesday afternoon while he was walking into the Lexington home... for a private fund-raiser for his campaign and the state Republican Party, but he did not reply.” Paul also ducked out as quickly as he could following a national interview he did at the local WKYT station in Lexington, telling a local Kentucky reporter that “we don’t have enough time.”
