Damn, talk about the #metoo movement causing a conundrum. Looks like the guy going after Weinstein may have skeletons in his closet:
"Two of the accusers, Michelle Manning Barish and Tanya Selvaratnam, told the publication that Schneiderman hit them, often after drinking and in bed, without their permission.
The two did not report the incidents to the police when they took place but sought medical help after the episodes.
Both of the women said Schneiderman threatened to kill them if they broke up with him, and Selvaratnam alleged that he said he could have her followed and her phones tapped.
A third woman also told The New Yorker that the attorney general abused her physically, but she was too afraid to come forward at the time.
A fourth woman who is a lawyer in New York said Schneiderman slapped her across the face after she denied him when he made an advance on her."
Schneiderman's defense seems weak: "In the privacy of intimate relationships, I have engaged in role-playing and other consensual sexual activity. I have not assaulted anyone. I have never engaged in nonconsensual sex, which is a line I would not cross," he said.
Important to note that no one is accusing him of non consensual sexual contact/sexual assault, but physical assault is still bad.
