Sharon Bialek accuses Cain of "sexually inappropriate" behavior
CBS ^ | Nov. 7, 2011 | Corbett B. Daly

Posted on 11/07/2011 8:42:11 PM PST by Netizen

Bialek said Cain put his hand under her skirt and pushed her head toward his crotch after a dinner together in 1997 after she asked to meet him to discuss ways he might be able to help her find employment. She said he backed away after she asked him to stop. Her boyfriend at the time on Monday issued a statement released by Allred confirming that she told him about the incident at the time. Allred did not release the boyfriend's name.

Isn’t sexual harrassment from employer to employee? She was not working for Mr. Cain at the time how is that sexual harassment.

I'm not sure if it is limited to employer/employee relationships or if someone joined you at a table in a restaurant and placed their hand on your leg and ran it up your thigh would count as sexual harassment or not? Or if someone jumped into your car unannounced and propositioned you with an open wallet full of $100 bills would be sexual harassment or not. I actually had this happen to me once! LOL

How is a fulltime single mom supporting herself and her children?

Boyfriend?

Why would a tea party member ever call Allred?

She's perceived as the best? Plus, she is known for going after celebrities?

They said she was registered Republican but records show she is not.

I haven't seen those, but we have seen this claim made in other instances only to find out later it was a ruse.

If she was so disgusted why talk to him and ask if he remembered her?

I think she said it was to see how he would react. I'm not sure of the timeline here and kind of wonder if had he apologized for his alleged earlier behavior, maybe she would not be doing this now? Based on the article.

If she just worked in the office for 6 months, why would she need to be “shown around the place?

I don't recall seeing that in the article so I can't comment on it. Is it from a different thread???

If you’re going to attack a woman in your car, and you’re married, why do you pull up in front of the office where you are the boss???

I don't recall seeing that in the article so I can't comment on it. Is it from a different thread??? Was Cain's wife at the office, to make this out of place?

If he did what this woman claims Herman did, why did she let him give her a ride back to her hotel?

Because when she let him know that she wasn't interested he backed off and was no longer a threat?

Why was she smiling???

When? At the press conference? Maybe she was nervous? She should have been visibly angry even after all these years? She should have been crying, even after all these years? I'm guessing she was told to relax and smile.

Why didn’t she tell her boyfriend?

According to the article she did.

Women don’t say a man reached for her “genitals”, that is something a man would say.

Different people are going to use different words or terminology. Someone else might say 'crotch', or 'twat' or 'privates'. She was probably told to be specific and most women I know would not have said 'vagina', but hey, maybe its a regional thing.

If he did this, it was assault - is someone going to press charges? Sue? Why didn’t she press charges then? Why didn’t she sue then?

I can't speak for her of course, but I think she viewed it as I do, as a bad pass. Basically a no harm no foul type thing. I do question why she is bringing it up at all at this late date.

How does anyone remember this much detail after 14 years?

Having been in such a position I can tell you, you remember things like this. You question if you did something wrong, could have done something different, said something different etc.

Was Cain driving this car? Does he have 3 arms? When did he unzip his pants?

Maybe the car wasn't driven at the time. So, he didn't need 3 arms. While they were sitting in a parking lot? That's where this type of thing happen to me.

Why couldn’t the media ask her questions?

Happens a lot at press conferences especially when lawyers are involved. This brings to mind something else that Cain might be able to do, though I'm not sure how it would be taken. Could he lawyer up and suggest that he going to file defamation suits? Like I said, I think this is a pass gone bad and to try and destroy him so many years later is questionable.

You are being assaulted and you say, “Don’t you know I have a boyfriend?” SERIOUSLY???

You would be surprised by what will come out of your mouth in times of crisis when you are trying to buy some time to think! The scenario above where the guy jumped in my car in the parking lot and opened a wallet with about 30 $100 bills in it, after I let him know I wasn't interested, I lit a cigarette and then grabbed the full ash tray saying I needed to empty it and got out of the car and walked quickly in the restaurant that I had previously left. Looking bad I laugh at the excuse, but it served its purpose.

She wouldn’t tell her closest friends about this, but 17 years later would tell everyone on national TV?

Can't say, since she did tell her boyfriend so maybe she did tell her close friends.

Why are they showing this young picture of her, when it’s not her?

Looks like her to me, though time and weight gain do change ones looks.

No, she accused him of sexual assault...and wants us all to believe that not only did she not do anything about it at the time, but that her boyfriend at the time also did not.

This is the part of the story that will do her in. Looking at it from the boyfriend's perspective, he recommends that she go see Cain about a job. She comes back and tells him something like this: "Hey, that guy you sent me to see? Well, he sexually assaulted me. See what your advice got me?"

What would you do at that point if you were the boyfriend?

Her boyfriend at the time on Monday issued a statement released by Allred confirming that she told him about the incident at the time.

And I read that her fiance just found out about it. Amazing how the truth circumvents time and space. I call BS on all this.

Tell her to stay away from him. It was an inappropriate pass so what else can ya do?

With a little luck we’ll know more tomorrow. Then again Cain might be told to only say so much. Who knows at this point.

Do you keep the suite at the hotel and keep your mouth shut about it for the next 14 years? I don’t think so. My conscience wouldn’t allow it. I would have felt responsible for leading her to be sexually assaulted. And I would have been pissed off that another man tried to take away the exclusive sexual relationship I had with her. Do nothing? Hell no.

I once kissed a girl that wasn’t my wife...and I also got listed as a father of a child that my only involment was beating the crap out of her current husband that had beat her up...women lie, men lie...but, not always about the same thing.

She might end up in a Penthouse spread.

Penthouse has 400-pound spread these days?

It's been many decades since I saw a copy of Penthouse.

I haven't seen where the link for the wedding came from. Maybe another person with that name. I'm not going to wade through 800 posts. I'm not interested in the photos.

Like I said in another post, hopefully we will know more tomorrow.

I would. Why not. I would consider it even. I would still need a place to sleep. He took it upon himself to change it to a suite. His loss. No guilt for keeping it.

What would you do, go beat him up? Funny, that was what my fiends asked me, if I wanted them to do to the guy that did those things to me. I thought about it and said no. I knew that beating someone up over something like that was not an adult way to deal with it.

This harridan should be held up for liable. A white woman accusing a black man of sexual impropriety. Straight out of Mandingo. All this b/c he is leading in the polls. There was not this level of scrutiny in 2008. We had a person running for office admitting cocaine use. I have been watching a lynching that makes Clarence Thomas hearing look like day camp. This speaks to something more foul. Why isn't the republican party speaking up? Then there are those in the media that are saying Cain is guilty and must come out with the truth. I think this whole thing is made up and meant to be a distraction from all that is happening in the world. Another Chicago style hit by the Drive by media. Why didn't this lady file criminal charges? 1997-2011 14 years out of Chicago lets connect the dots. Someone came out of Chicago and it's brand of politics. If Cain was such a serial harrasser why is all of this coming out now. A white woman attacking a black man where are AL and Jesse and the NAACP?

Who said anything about beating him up? An alleged crime took place. Did it get reported?
