Democratic lesbian Latina running for Congress is accused by 4 women of unwanted sexual advances
The accusers described the alleged harassment in detail.
A Latina lesbian member of the Salt Lake City Council has been accused by four people of sexual harassment while she mounts a campaign to win a U.S. congressional seat.
Three of the accusers are elected officials, and all said they were subjected to unwanted sexual advances from Eva Lopez Chavez.
'We cannot excuse behavior — past or present — that trivializes or undermines the seriousness of sexual violence, assault, and harassment.'
Chavez said through an attorney that she was "shocked" by the allegations, denied one interaction had ever occurred, and claimed nothing inappropriate happened between three other accusers.
"She is prepared to address them in any forum. She stands ready to submit to a polygraph test regarding these various allegations if requested," reads a statement from her attorney, Greg Skordas, to the Salt Lake Tribune.
