Donald Trump is accused of groping Stacey Williams with Jeffrey Epstein

Former model Stacey Williams has claimed that presidential candidate Donald Trump groped her in a 1993 incident at Trump Tower after late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein introduced her.

In an interview with The Guardian and on a Zoom call organized by the group Survivors for Kamala, Williams described how she met Trump at a Christmas party in 1992 through Epstein, whom she dated occasionally. “It became very clear at that time that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together,” Williams said.

A few months later, Williams said Epstein suggested visiting Trump on a walk in Trump Tower. While greeting Trump, Williams claimed he put his hands “all over my breasts” as well as her waist and butt. She remembers being “deeply confused” and claimed she saw the two men smiling at each other after the incident.

Trump's press secretary Karoline Leavitt rejected the allegations in a statement diversity and accused Harris' campaign of orchestrating the story. “These allegations, made by a former Barack Obama operative and announced at a Harris campaign call two weeks before the election, are clearly false,” Leavitt said. “It is obvious that this fake story was fabricated by the Harris campaign.”

diversity The Harris campaign has reached out for further comment.

Williams claimed in the Zoom call that after the incident, Epstein “didn't look at me or talk to me and I felt this simmering anger around me, and when we got to the sidewalk he looked at me and just swore at me.” and said, 'Why did you let him do that?'” She continued, “He made me so gross and I remember being so completely confused.”

Williams said she never knew about Epstein's sexual abuse at the time. In July 2019, the disgraced financier was arrested on sex trafficking charges and died in his prison cell the following month in what the coroner ruled a suicide.

The group “Survivors for Kamala” placed an ad in the New York Times this week signed by 200 survivors of sexual violence to remind readers that Trump last year in an article written by author E.Jean Carroll. The former president was accused of sexual misconduct by at least two dozen women during his career, which he vehemently denied.

Trump was photographed at social events with Epstein in the 1990s and early 2000s – and called him a “great guy” in a 2002 New York Magazine profile – but claimed he never knew about his sexual abuse. After Epstein was arrested, Trump told reporters that he and Epstein had a “falling out” in the early 2000s.

“I haven’t spoken to him in 15 years,” Trump said at the time. “I wasn’t a fan of his, I can tell you that.”

The race between Trump and Harris is looming as Americans prepare to vote on November 5th. FiveThirtyEight's latest poll shows the two candidates neck and neck, with Harris slightly ahead at 48.1%.
