根据美国广播公司新闻频道(ABC News)获得的一份22页的警方报告,2017年指控皮特·黑格斯(Pete Hegseth)性侵的女子当时告诉警方,事发当晚,他拿走了她的手机,阻止她离开他的酒店房间。
这份由蒙特雷警察局于2017年10月编制的报告提供了一份新的生动细节,内容涉及一场所谓的争吵,这场争吵现在有可能破坏海格塞思成为当选总统唐纳德·特朗普的国防部长的努力。
该报告记录了一项警方调查,该调查并未导致对这位前福克斯新闻频道明星的指控。它包括采访该名女子,谁是只确定为无名氏,和Hegseth,谁告诉警方,遇到是两厢情愿的。
正如美国广播公司新闻此前报道的那样,能源部在加利福尼亚州蒙特雷由加州共和党妇女联合会主办的一次活动中会见了赫格塞斯,赫格塞斯在活动中担任演讲人。
根据警方的报告,在一次聚会后的活动中,多伊告诉警方,她喝了“比正常情况下多得多”的酒,并形容她的回忆“模糊不清”,但她记得在观察到Hegseth“揉女人的腿”后,她一度与他对峙——另一名证人在与警方的单独采访中证实了这一说法。
据她告诉调查人员,“无名氏说,她接下来的记忆是她在一个未知的房间里”和Hegseth在一起,她说heg Seth“从她手中拿走了她的手机”,当她试图离开时,“用他的身体堵住了门”。
据报道,多伊说她记得海格塞斯的军牌“在她的脸上盘旋”,并说他最终“在她的肚子上射精”。多伊告诉警方,她记得在遭遇中说了很多“不”。
几天后,多伊告诉她的伴侣,她认为自己是性侵犯的受害者,并拜访了一名护士,护士进行了性侵犯检查,并首先向当局报警。
当警方作为调查的一部分接近Hegseth时,他“声明他和JANE DOE之间的订婚是相互的。”
“海格塞斯表示,有几次他让无名氏对他们之间发生的事情感到舒服,”报告称。
准备报告的官员写道,两人“喝了酒,事件变得模糊不清,缺乏细节和连续的事件。”调查人员获得了酒店的视频监控,并收集了无名氏的衣服和内衣作为调查证据。
Hegseth的律师蒂姆·帕拉托雷(Tim Parlatore)周六在报告发布到网上之前的声明中表示,这些指控是虚假的,Hegseth在2020年12月达成和解,只是因为他担心如果她的指控被公开,他的职业生涯会受到影响。
Parlatore强调警方没有提出指控,并表示Hegseth是“勒索”和“性侵犯的虚假指控”的受害者
New details of Hegseth sexual assault claim documented in police report
The woman who accused Pete Hegseth of sexual assault in 2017 told police at the time that he took her phone and blocked her from leaving his hotel room on the night of the incident, according to a 22-page police report obtained by ABC News.
The report, compiled in Oct. 2017 by the Monterey Police Department, provides graphic new details of an alleged altercation that now threatens to derail Hegseth's bid to become President-elect Donald Trump's Defense Secretary.
The report documents a police investigation that did not result in charges against the former Fox News star. It includes interviews with the woman, who is identified only as Jane Doe, and Hegseth, who told police that the encounter was consensual.
As ABC News has previously reported, Doe met Hegseth at an event hosted by the California Federation of Republican Women in Monterey, California, where Hegseth was featured as a speaker.
At an event afterparty, according to the police report, Doe told police she had drank "much more than normal" and described her recollections as "fuzzy," but that she recalled confronting Hegseth at one point after observing him "rub the women on their legs" -- a claim one other witness confirmed in a separate interview with police.
"JANE DOE stated the next memory she had was when she was in an unknown room" with Hegseth, who she said "took her phone from her hands" and, when she attempted to leave, "blocked the door with his body," according to what she told investigators.
Doe said she remembered Hegseth's military dog-tags "hovering over her face" and said he eventually "ejaculated on her stomach," according to the report. Doe told police that she recalled saying "no" a lot during the encounter.
Days later, Doe told her partner she believed she had been the victim of a sexual assault and visited a nurse, who administered a sexual assault examination and first alerted the authorities.
When police approached Hegseth as part of their investigation, he "stated that the engagement between himself and JANE DOE was mutual."
"HEGSETH stated there were a couple of times he had made sure JANE DOE was comfortable with what was going on between the two of them," according to the report.
The officer who prepared the report wrote that the two had "been drinking and the events were blurred and lacked specifics and a fluid sequence of events." Investigators obtained video surveillance from the hotel and collected Doe's clothes and underwear as evidence in their probe.
Tim Parlatore, a lawyer for Hegseth, said in the statement on Saturday, prior to the report being posted online, that the allegations were false and Hegseth settled in December 2020 only because he feared his career would suffer if her allegations were made public.
Parlatore emphasized police did not bring charges and said Hegseth was the victim of "blackmail" and "false claims of sexual assault."
