Second Herschel Walker accuser goes on camera and says he put 'menacing' pressure on her to get abortion

Raw Story  

The second woman who has accused Georgia GOP Senate hopeful Herschel Walker of pushing her to get an abortion has now gone on camera for the first time to denounce him. While still only listing her name as "Jane Doe," the woman appeared on ABC's "Good Morning America" to slam Walker for what she says are false claims he made about the first woman who accused him of having an abortion. "When I saw the first woman coming forward a few weeks ago, he immediately called her a liar and said, 'I never signed anything with the letter 'H,'" she said. The woman also told "Good Morning America" that she was speaking out against Walker's Senate run because he had proven himself to be serially dishonest.
