A woman who accused Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden of sexually assaulting her when she worked for him in 1993 has filed a formal criminal complaint with the Washington, DC, police about the alleged incident, Business Insider has learned.Tara Reade says she told police that Biden assaulted her in a Senate corridor, shoving his hand under her skirt and penetrating her with his fingers. She was a staffer in his Senate office at the time. The statute of limitations for the alleged assault has passed.
Reade first made her allegations late last month, in a podcast interview, saying that Biden had assaulted her and touched her without consent

The complaint will just be shredded. Way beyond any reasonable statute of limitations.
But will give protection to journalists who chose to end their careers by asking about it

No fan of Biden, but this smells of typical dnc dirty tricks. They don’t want Biden and wouldn’t be surprised this is a setup to have Coumo come to the rescue.

The statute of limitations has passed. She should be told to not only go pound sand but that she is held liable for the accusations.
I think all those accusers of Kavanaugh should be sued.
Anita Hill as well.
Change of venue out of DC metro area.
Garnish their wages forever until they have paid.

I’m not sure the answer to the problem, #4, but people who think as you do are the reason victims fear coming forward. I happen to believe Ms. Reade, and I do think it’s pertinent.

It is exactly out of the dem playbook. She's been put up to it by some political hack. Could be from either party but has dem fingerprints. If this really bothered her she would have filed the complaint in 1993.

A guy like Joe Biden probably would not remember. Probably so many meaningless (to him) occurrences like this throughout his life. Hunter is just another Joe with a more influential father.
FTA:
Reade said she filed the complaint against Biden for "safety reasons," to establish a paper trail of the incident in case anything happened to her. The statute of limitations for the alleged incident has passed.

Touché. Did the Left patent the #MeToo process?

A complaint like this should be far more disruptive to a presidential candidate’s campaign than, say, that stupid Billy Bush thing. Once these hit the media, one never knows how they will affect the voting.

27 years too late, like so many others. Gotta do it at the time it happens.

Right from the Democrat Dirty-Trick Playbook. They want to take Joe out of the game because they know he will be a disaster. My only surprise is that that they didn't use their seasoned, first-string accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. The media loved her.

Now that there is a criminal complaint filed, there may be a bit more msm coverage. But, don't hold your breath. These he said/she said criminal complaints don't carry a lot of weight. The Senate committees, however, could give this visibility. With the virus continuing to dominate msm time, hard to bring much else to the top. Giving it exposure in social media might work.

Chances are Tara Reade’s complaint will become fodder for both the political and prosecutorial double standards that are now widely known in be present in liberal Democrat centric locations such as Washington, DC. Since Biden is a career DC liberal Democrat UniParty politician of over forty years, most people who have been paying attention recognize that the complaint will most likely be summarily dismissed and that the so-called mainstream (liberal) media will generally ignore Reade’s sexual assault allegations. The one person that would know the veracity of such a specific allegation would probably be Dr. Jill Biden.

“Women have a right to tell their story, and reporters have an obligation to rigorously vet those claims. We encourage them to do so, because these accusations are false.”
Great! Your wish is granted.

Would this be happening if he remained just former VP Joe Biden and not the presumptive presidential nominee?

Once again, the DNC tells their voters to take a hike.

I read her story about a month ago. I believe her. Biden is a scumbag. All that smelling may be one of his downfalls.
