Woman shares new evidence of relationship with Roy Moore when she was 17

Delray Beach, Fla. — Debbie Wesson Gibson was in her attic hauling out boxes of Christmas decorations last week when she noticed a storage bin she said she had forgotten about. Inside was a scrapbook from her senior year of high school, and taped to a page titled “Those Who Inspire” was a graduation card.

“Happy graduation Debbie,” it read in slanted cursive handwriting. “I wanted to give you this card myself. I know that you’ll be a success in anything you do. Roy.”

The inscription, Gibson said, was written by Roy Moore, the Alabama Republican nominee for U.S. Senate who in recent days has repeatedly denied the accounts of five women who told The Washington Post that he pursued them when they were teenagers and he was an assistant district attorney in his 30s. Since those allegations were published last month, four more women have come forward to allege that Moore made unwanted sexual advances. The accounts in The Post included those of Leigh Corfman, who said she was 14 when Moore touched her sexually, and Gibson, who said that she publicly dated Moore when she was 17 and he was 34, a relationship she said she “wore like a badge of honor” until she began reevaluating it in light of the accounts of other women, and now, Moore’s own denials.

What made her decision to share the documents easier, she said, was watching and re-watching a video she has on her cellphone of Moore speaking last week and deciding that supporting the women who have come forward was more important than staying silent.

2. 17 is over the Age of Consent.

It's BIBLICAL. Besides, I don't want to think about it. Dems are worse!

[marble falls]

3. Almost alerted! good one!

[DangerousUrNot]

10. lol

[CatMor]

4. Maybe he was afraid of dating a woman his own age...

because they would be smarter than he was. He is so creepy and I hate that cowboy hat on him.

[fierywoman]

6. I've always thought that men who date teenagers

do so because older women are more sexually experienced and would find them lacking or at least not interesting ...

[CatMor]

7. Good theory....

I didn't think of that and in his case it's probably true.

[TexasBushwhacker]

12. That's been my experience

The men I've known who were in their 30s who dated teenagers or even women in their early 20s, usually couldn't cut it in or out of bed with a women their own age. They wanted a girl to look up to them because they had low self esteem.

[fierywoman]

15. Yup to both of you !

[Ilsa]

21. Bingo. nt

[eleny]

23. Dating younger might have given him an inflated sense of "the wonder of me" factor

[Mr.Bill]

16. If he wasn't trying to pick up children,

why does he dress like a character from Toy Story?

[lunasun]

26. +1 Good question

[-Steph-]

5. I'm glad she's speaking out. I hope Alabama Democrats, and anyone who doesn't want a pedophile

in the Senate, come out in full force on election day. This pervert needs to be defeated!

8. k and r...nt

[Achilleaze]

9. disgusting republican pedophiles deserve jail

next to the republican treasonweasels...

[DangerousUrNot]

11. This will probably make republicans want to vote for Moore even more.

[SunSeeker]

13. Moore was one busy pedophile.

I'm betting their relationship ended when he found a "younger woman." 17 appears the top end of suitability for him.

14. Handwriting a perfect match to high school yearbook of other accuser

Isn’t that odd, that the two accusers would coordinate their forgeries?

[czarjak]

19. Fake news in 5...4...3...

[WhoWoodaKnew]

17. $5 says that Moore stated scoping these girls out when they were 12-14.

[progressoid]

18. Won't matter to his supporters.

[Cicada]

20. They will cheer 2 4 6 8 we dont care the age you date. Go Roy!

[Ilsa]

22. If they have boobs at age

8, that's good enough for Roy Moore!

25. It doesn't matter.

According to not-so-Breitbart, none of this matters because all this is part of the normal dating ritual in the South. Really, they said that.

[LenaBaby61]

27. It doesn't matter.

Well, if it was a Dem it would matter. But since Moore's a thuglican, it's fine for MOST in Alabama.

[SergeStorms]

30. Right!

I should have stipulated that.

[7962]

28. My ex GF married her 1st cousin in Alabama.

She insisted "theres nothing odd about it". I told her that when people ask how they met, if she doesn't lead off with "We're cousins" then even she thinks its odd

[SergeStorms]

31. 1st cousins?

I thought that was against the law.

Some places in the south really are 'like a whole other country".

[TomCADem]

29. She Was Same Age as Girl with the soccer Coach

That Fox has breathlessly covering.

[karmaqueen]

32. One of the girls is a good friend of mine.

She dated Moore when she was 17. I have known her for over 30 years and I know she is not a liar. She has a lawyer and does not talk about it much, hannity and his gang have been trying to get to her grown children in other states to try and get dirt on her. She has not lived in Alabama since she was in her twenties, they moved to my town in the 80s I do not know how he can deny even knowing these girls. It is becoming more frightening every day with the kooks and liars in charge. I am sickened by the fact that people who vote for him still call themselves the party of values.
