........................

Trashelle Odom, the wife of Idaho construction executive John Odom, alleges that Lewandowski repeatedly touched her, including on her leg and buttocks, and spoke to her in sexually graphic terms. Odom said that Lewandowski “stalked” her throughout the evening.

Four people who were first-hand witnesses at the event corroborated Odom’s allegations. POLITICO also spoke with two people — one who was at the event and another who was not — who described conversations they had with Odom about the incidents immediately after they happened.

“On the evening of September 26 in Las Vegas, Nevada, I attended a dinner to support a charity and spend time with wonderful friends,” Odom said in a statement to POLITICO. “He repeatedly touched me inappropriately, said vile and disgusting things to me, stalked me, and made me feel violated and fearful,” she said, referring to Lewandowski.

“I am coming forward because he needs to be held accountable,” Odom continued. “I am blessed to have a loving husband and family behind me. I want other women to know that you can be heard, too, and together we can stop terrible things like this from happening.”..............................................

1. Another thread here on DU says he is having an affair with SD Gov Kristi Noem.

Sounds like a lot of tea to dish on this guy.

[Dakota Flint]

5. Just another god fearing family values man, huh?

[Irish_Dem]

11. Yep.

Such hypocrites.

[Traildogbob]

16. Wasn't he poking

Hope Hicks too? MTV series, “Real Ho’s of the trump White House”. All those beautiful power hungry women had better hope Corey believes in vaccines. Will Trump grab a pu**y with Cankers on it?

[PatSeg]

20. Yes, as I recall

I couldn't imagine what on earth she was doing with that creep. He wasn't that great a catch AND he was married.

[Grins]

27. ...because she has "values"...! NM

[regnaD kciN]

2. Imagine. My. Surprise.

[Mawspam2]

3. Trashelle?

:shakeshead:

[tanyev]

6. Could be worse. Her younger brother Sewage has had a tough time with it.

[Lemon Lyman]

8. :-)

Jesus, no kidding. It sounds like an insult name kids would call someone named Rochelle or something.

[catrose]

15. Seriously

[2naSalit]

21. Since it's Idaho...

A lot of the folks of a certain persuasion like to combine the first names of the parents to create a new name because they have so many kids that they run out of names, and there are entire clans of people with the same last name so that's how they deal with it.

I'm guessing her parents are named something like Tray or Travis or something like that and the mom's name is some like Michelle or some version of that.

24. How could anyone name a child Trashell?

To her credit, she has lived up to it by becoming a Republican donor.

I feel sorry for her kids, Glassarina, Paperella, and Compostor.

4. .....Attendees also observed Lewandowski growing physical with Odom.

...............Attendees also observed Lewandowski growing physical with Odom.

“Mrs. Odom stated that over the course of the dinner, Mr. Lewandowski tried to hold her hand, and she pushed his hand away. He touched her leg, and she moved it away. He grabbed her napkin off her lap and tried to touch her leg again, and she pulled her dress over her leg, to move his hand away and cover her skin,” Odom’s attorney wrote in the statement.

“He touched her back and she tried to get away,” the statement continued. “He described an area where he was sore from a workout, on the side of his butt, but he demonstrated this by touching her there—on the upper side of her rear end. Lewandowski tried to touch her approximately 10 times, and Mrs. Odom always rebuffed him.”

Odom left the room but was soon followed by Lewandowski, who remarked that she had a “nice ass,” according to the statement from her attorney and another attendee who heard the comment. Lewandowski also “threw his drink at Mrs. Odom, and it landed all over her shoe and the bottom of her dress,” and “called her stupid,” her attorney stated...........................

[Bernardo de La Paz]

19. His courtship pattern leaves a little to be desired: "threw his drink", "called her stupid"

He has a high opinion of himself as irresistibly sexy.

[BlueTsunami2018]

7. Not surprising.

Also nothing will come of it.

[Mopar151]

9. Creeper.....

Cousin Pervy, with a travel budget.

[Midnight Writer]

10. So did the Odoms still contribute?

[Casady1]

12. If it had been TFG

she may have had a go.

[Marthe48]

13. To be accurate, any advances from that jerk would be unwelcome

and creepy

[PSPS]

14. More "LBN" from "Tiger Beat on the Potomac"

[NNadir]

17. Trashelle?

Perfect name for a Trumper, I think.

[SKKY]

23. With emphasis on "Trash"

[justhanginon]

18. Oh, the outrage from the the Odom's who donated

much money to the party that had "grab them by the p...y" and "you can do anything" as its nominee. I am pretty sure they voted for him to be president being loyal repubs. While his behavior was vile at best still one wonders about their change in value assessment once it affected them. Typical republicans.

[Marcuse]

22. Lewandowski thinks he is a star so she would let him do it.

.

In the statement from Odom’s attorney, Lewandowski is alleged to have said “repeatedly that he is very powerful and can destroy anyone,” and that he “is close with President Trump and can get anyone elected or can take anyone out.”

“Corey was verbally and physically aggressive and forceful,” Odom alleged in a statement. “I was fearful for my physical safety.” She continued: "I was also fearful that Corey has the power to destroy and ruin everything my husband and I have been working on in our business, personal and charitable endeavors.” But those close to the Odoms say the couple will ask for their money to be refunded unless Lewandowski’s ties to the super PAC are severed.

“I love my wife, and I want accountability now,” John Odom, Trashelle’s husband, said in a statement. “We are exploring our legal options at this time to make sure [Lewandowski] cannot harm anyone else.”

25. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I ask you

is this the face of a sexual predator? "
That should work!

[BlueIdaho]

26. Did he grab her by the pussy?

Because Trump likes that…

[SunSeeker]

28. Wow. Corey is even dumber than he looks.

I didn't think that was possible.

[Hekate]

29. My favorite part of the story was where she told the PAC that if he wasn't fired,she wanted her $$$$

She had donated $100,000 and wanted it back if they didn’t fire his ass.

THAT’S the difference between her and all the other women who got assaulted by Trump, Lewandowski, and all the rest of the predators in that pack. She not only had witnesses, she quite literally had a receipt for a large sum of money the PAC wanted to retain.

My gods, they really do not live in the same world as the rest of us.

30. What a sleazy sordid creep...
