"Our specially trained prosecutors, investigators and counselors are well-equipped to help you in a trauma-informed, survivor-centered manner.”
A former staffer of Swalwell's claimed to CNN that after she was heavily intoxicated she was raped by the congressman in an incident that left her bloody and bruised, “I was pushing him off of me, saying no. He didn't stop." That incident took place in 2024 after she had stopped working in the congressman's office. The unidentified woman said that it happened in 2019 when she was still working for him and alleged that she woke up naked on the bed with Swalwell after drinking.
Although she did not remember what happened, she could feel that they had sexual contact. Other women have also alleged sexual misconduct in their dealings with Swalwell.
“We urge survivors and anyone with knowledge of these allegations to contact our Special Victims Division at 212-335-9373,” the DA's office said in a statement. “Our specially trained prosecutors, investigators and counselors are well-equipped to help you in a trauma-informed, survivor-centered manner.”
Swalwell denied all of the allegations of sexual assualt and other misconduct in a video posted to X on Friday.
"A lot has been said about me today through anonymous allegations, and I thought it was important that you see and hear from me directly. These allegations of sexual assault are flat out false," Swalwell said in a video on social media. "They are absolutely false. They did not happen. They have never happened. And I will fight them with everything that I have."
Calls from Democrat lawmakers have been growing for Swalwell to drop out of the California gubernatorial race as well as resign from his position in Congress.
