Bannon-Backed Roy Moore Accused Of Inappropriate Sexual Contact With 14-Year-Old Girl

Bannon-Backed Roy Moore Accused Of Inappropriate Sexual Contact With 14-Year-Old Girl

In an explosive report that, if accurate, could potentially swing a race for Jeff Session's old Senate seat to the Democrats, former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore is being accused of having inappropriate sexual contact with a 14-year-old girl back in 1979, when he was 32.

Moore handily won the Republican primary in the race to fill Session's old seat back in September, and was gearing up to face Democrat and former US Attorney Doug Jones in a special election next month.
