Trump's Defense Pick Hegseth Paid Accuser Under NDA Amid 2017 Sexual Assault Accusation
Nov 17, 2024, 12:35 AM
Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's pick for secretary of defense, paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault as part of a nondisclosure agreement (NDA), according to his attorney. The payment was made in relation to an accusation from 2017, which Hegseth maintains was consensual. His attorney stated that Hegseth was 'visibly upset' by the accusation but denies any wrongdoing. Hegseth has informed Trump aides about the consensual nature of the 2017 encounter, and the story was reported by The Washington Post.
