Fifield, 41, is the second woman to allege this week that Platner engaged in nonconsensual sexual conduct. Jenny Racicot, 41, who said she previously dated Platner, told The Post and other outlets on Monday that he sexually assaulted her in late 2021, leading a growing number of allies to drop their endorsements and call on him to withdraw from the race for a Maine seat in the U.S. Senate. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), his most influential and prominent supporter, said he spoke with Platner on Tuesday and urged him to withdraw from his campaign to unseat Susan Collins, the incumbent Republican.
Platner, 41, a Marine Corps veteran and oyster farmer, also denied Racicot’s allegation but said on Monday that he was “mindful of the political reality” that the reporting will “inflict” on his campaign and was “taking the time to reflect on the best path forward.”
Fifield initially told The Post about the alleged condom removal during a June 20 interview that was off the record. She said she decided to speak publicly about it Tuesday in part because, she said, she wanted to show that Racicot was not alone in experiencing issues with Platner involving sexual consent.
I don’t care if it is Ilsa She-Wolf of the SS. Nobody deserves to be raped.
End of story.
Yeah, and no one knows if she was, except herself and Platner. It’s her word against his. End of story.
I will never adhere to such a stupid rule as 1. This is circular reasoning at its best. How can she be a victim if no one knows if she is, but herself? Everyone can self-proclaim themselves to be a victim. This argument has no merit whatsoever. Until there is any more substantial evidence I won’t belief anyone of course.
Agree with that. Hope she gets justice. but I won’t shed a tear for a nazi lover
That’s nice. The good news is that you can think that and just not open your fucking mouth and making everyone assume you are cheering for someone being raped.
It doesn’t have to be Friday to shut the fuck up.
No one gets to act surprised that a nazi mercenary is a bad person, not you, not the democrats, not the media, and not his girlfriend.
And it is extremely personally insulting, that the tears of a white woman is more important in the US that brown people’s lives.
When that happened to me it was treated as a fucking joke, but when it happens to a white nazi lover suddenly its bad. Trust me, I want her to get justice as much as I wanted justice for myself. but apparently, based on the colour of my skin, the US is more likely to pay someone to kill me (they already do) than to ever get any sort of justice.
Assuming this isn’t just complete bullshit, like you do realize that this makes you a terrible person right? The fact that you yourself have experienced something similar, and yet you are still heartlessly blaming a victim because she was white, is downright shameful.
You should be ashamed.
I’m criticising the painfully overt racism involved. the one still going on with people still making excuses and rallying around a nazi lover.
yes, it’s obvious that I’m worthless because of the color of my skin and I’m the bad guy for bringing it up.
I’m all against suicide, but I won’t cry about Eva Baun or Hitler offing themselves. Nazi lives don’t count. but apparently in the US, they count more than me.
