Former staffer of Eric Swalwell says he s*xually assaulted her twice, says she woke up in his bed with no clothes on.
The first incident reportedly took place in 2019. Swalwell has been married since 2016.
The woman says she was hired at the age of 21. At one point in 2019, Swalwell pulled out his pen*s and asked her to perform oral s*x on him. She did so in a parking lot, according to the SF Chronicle.
Later that same year, the former staffer says she was invited out for drinks with Swalwell. She says she became so intoxicated that she does not remember the rest of the night.
She claims she woke up with no clothes on in Swalwell’s hotel bed and claims she could feel “the effect of vag*nal intercourse,” according to the SF Chronicle.
In April of 2024, the woman, who did not work for Swalwell at this time, attended a charity gala where Swalwell was present.
The woman says she became “inebriated” while getting drinks with him after and can barely remember the night. She says she told him “no” as he forced himself on her.
The woman says she was s*xually assaulted by Swalwell. She says she “blacked out” but “woke up once during it and even told him to stop at one point.”
The woman’s friend and then-boyfriend say she told them about the alleged assault the next day.
Swalwell has denied the accusations and has since sent a cease-and-desist letter.
The representative previously said in 2018 that alleged victims “deserve to be heard.”
