PkrBum, This is the first part of the article you posted. It looks as if a woman came forward with accusations against someone in Gov. Phil Murphy's administration. Getting no meaningful response from the criminal justice system she broke the story in the WSJ.
Okay I didn't know Murphy was a Democrat. It looks to me as if he might have trouble the next time he comes up for reelection. This situation is regrettable, certainly. It is not only the political party that is at fault it is the attitude of the criminal justice system. The money and time to investigate rapes is just to there. Look at the backlog of processing rape kits. Look at the way women have been treated when they've come forward.
It still remains on a general national level that Democrats are much more receptive to claims of sexual assault than Republicans are. Anyone who watched and listened to the Kavanaugh hearing knows this is so. Maybe the women in NJ will vote him out the next time he's up for re-election, who knows?
The woman who accused a senior staffer in Gov. Phil Murphy 's administration of sexually assaulting her while he worked for Murphy's campaign last year is a state official who says she is now telling her story because she has "received no justice."
Katie Brennan, who later volunteered for the campaign and is now the chief of staff at the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency, detailed her allegations against Albert J. Alvarez publicly for the first time in a story published by the Wall Street Journal on Sunday afternoon.
After the report was published Sunday afternoon, Brennan said in a statement: "On April 8th, 2017, Al Alvarez raped me. On April 9th, 2017 I learned that the system is broken."
"I have pursued every form of justice available," Brennan, 31, of Jersey City, continued. "But it has become clear that this system is not built for survivors."
Brennan said she "decided to come forward because I know that Al Alvarez, and all perpetrators, must be held accountable, must never rape again, and the justice system needs a complete change with regard to sexual violence."
"It is clear that leadership from the Murphy administration is needed to create meaningful policy change on several levels to make sure future victims do not have to endure what I have," she said.
