Over a month ago, The New York Times reported on serious allegations made by Lyndsey Fifield against Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner. These allegations include accusations of abuse and sexual assault.
Fifield has publicly criticized The Times for not including other allegations of sexual misconduct that she believes are pertinent to the story.
Despite the gravity of the claims, there is currently no evidence to support the notion that Democratic officials were aware of these allegations prior to their public disclosure.
