People I know there either say 'oh yeah, this has been common knowledge for years' or 'it's a witch hunt'.

Our current president of the US boasted about sexually assaulting women (along with multiple allegations of sexual assault) and he still got elected. Perhaps if the mayor has difficulty getting reelected in Seattle he can run as a republican for US president and still win.

I don't know the mayor personally and will wait until there is some evidence before I form an opinion. Haven't heard a recording of him boasting about it - unlike some people.

I agree, won't be forming any opinions yet. I'm not much for conspiracies but lately I wonder about everything.

Nothing will happen to the mayor...Seattle is a sanctuary city after all.

But when three people come forth with similar stories of abuse by Ed Murray and the mayor won't answer question by the press....I have to wonder.

Yes I do believe the news mentioned similar accusations had popped up in the past, sometimes when there's smoke there's fire, but it's probably best to wait until all the facts come out. Of course if he resigns/drops his campaign for reelection citing "personal reasons" or because this is "becoming a distraction," we'll probably have our answers.

With that said, this is also clearly Donald Trump's fault, as was yesterday's wind storm, the sinkhole caused by the tunnel boring machine, and the Great Fire of 1889.

He's outside the statute of limitations for criminal prosecution, so the guy's already going to walk for it.

But I mean, the fact that this latest guy can accurately describe what are apparently telling features about Murray's junk.....not exactly something you just come up with in a Google search.

20 years ago, that was the big drug. Nowadays it's meth and heroin.

And he's a lousy mayor anyway. Driving down the major street near my house, pothole after pothole and now this pedo scandal but never fear, he'll save us from cola and Sunny D.

Seattle isn't concerned about no stinkin' potholes...Hasn't the tunnel that is replacing the Alaskan viaduct created a giant sink hole? Now we are talking one big taxpayer pothole.
