She’s not the only one who’s accused him of being aggressive.

But get real: Al Gore is a big, important member of the American left. He could sacrifice babies in blood rituals on live TV and get away with it.

Thus is life in 2010.

The police have released more reasons why they made their decision:

****
Her claims were published in an online version of the National Enquirer on June 23, resulting in another investigation by Portland police. The story was published by the newspaper on July 5 and Hagerty was featured in the newspaper again on July 12 with photographs of her in what appears to be a law office.

She had also given her story to the Portland Tribune, which said it thoroughly investigated her allegations — including interviewing her — only to determine it wasn't responsible to move forward with a story.

It's still unclear whether Hagerty sought compensation from the National Enquirer, and whether she received payment from any publication.

In a prepared statement, Kohel Haver, a media and entertainment lawyer representing Hagerty, said she was disappointed the district attorney declined to prosecute "but understands their decision."

Haver declined to talk about whether the Enquirer paid Hagerty and said he does not know where she is, adding that "it's been quite traumatic for her."

He said no lawsuit was expected, while the prosecutor's memo indicated another attorney for Hagerty, Judy Snyder, "states there is no viable civil claim due to the lapse of time."

Rees noted in his memo that refusal by Hagerty and her attorneys to answer questions about whether she was paid, and that given "the Enquirer's documented practice of paying for stories, it is logical to assume Ms. Hagerty has been compensated." link AP-Google

Were you expecting semen on those pants? That was unlikely given the fact of the case as she reported them.

Any account that comes out so late after the fact is highly suspect. Real victims don’t wait three years.

There is money at the root of this case.

Interestingly enough, he may have stiffed her.

>>> Hagerty also e-mailed the hotel a few days after the alleged incident, saying she should have been paid $540 instead of the $234 she received. There is no mention of other problems with the massage. <<<
