to know is a household name is kathy shelton. she was raped at the age of 12. and hillary clinton defended her defended the rapist, got him off in a plea deal, and a year later laughed about the tactics. this is before the rape shield laws were on the books in arkansas donald trump has made this very front and center and we ve covered this a lot. my question is, do you believe that s going to depress democratic vote, and clearly you do, because you believe this is a strategy that s wise to pursue. so, i believe that voters should know who hillary clinton is. and i ll let them decide whether it s enough for them to stay home or come to the polls. but they ought to know, i want kathy shelton to become a household name. it s a disgusting case and it shows it s always hillary first. she was acting as a public defender, which is in our constitution, but donald trump she didn t need to laugh the next day. the next year, about the tactics. donald trump told bill o reilly tonig
anderson, it was terrific. days ago after the new york times endorsed hillary clinton for president, they turned around and talked about the way hillary clinton and her cohorts always went after these women. the other person i want everyone to know is a household name is kathy shelton. she was raped at the age of 12. and hillary clinton defended her defended the rapist, got him off in a plea deal, and a year tolerate laughed about the tactics. this is before the rape shield laws were on the books in arkansas donald trump has made this very front and center and we ve covered this a lot. my question is, do you believe that s going to depress democratic vote, and clearly you do, because you believe this is a strategy that s wise to pursue. so, i believe that voters should know who hillary clinton is. and i ll let them decide whether it s enough for them to stay home or come to the polls. but they ought to know, i want kathy shelton to become a household name. it s a disgusting c
he did not say the word sexual no. it s what he implied you want to talk about sexual assault, right here in the hall i know cnn doesn t want into the view them for whatever reason. you give miss universe a big platform. but we have in the hall tonight juanita broaddrick and paula jones and kathy shelton the 12-year-old rape victim that two years before the rape shield laws were implemented in arkansas hillary clinton defending her 42-year-old rapist successfully defending him getting him a plea bargain. she was willing to blame and shame that victim as well who was 12 years old. we can talk about sexual assault but let s have a full conversation about it. this is what i know. i have to assess people based on what i see in totem. this is a man i ve been alone with many times who s never been anything but gracious and a gentleman and elevated me to the top level of his campaign the way he s elevated women in the trump organization for decades. because he respects women. le
evolution over the last 40 years. i dare say there s been an evolution over the last 20. over the last five you could make an argument. we had spousal rape statutes that permitted spousal rape up until not too long ago. you would be shocked how recent that was. to say there s been a sea change in the law of sexual assault is an understatement. statistically speaking, i m going to get you to answer this as the guy who takes the clients to look for a defense. it s an entirely different thing to have your handbag stolen on the street and be pistol whipped and report you ve had a crime waged against you than having a sexual violation happen and go in and go and get a rape kit from the hospital. definitely. and have nurses and doctors probe you and ask you about everything from your sexual history that evening, that week, whatever else, to going into a court and have that public record. and i think our laws have evolved to recognize this is a painful process and that s why we have
