MSNOW laying out what evidence it has confirmed about Swalwell [View all]

Mychael Schnell told Alex Witt that she has spoken to the alleged victim who provided a medical report from a practitioner who called her a strong survivor (I guess in the report) and text messages. The text message that Schnell elaborated on was during the time frame of the alleged attack, but was not between Swalwell and the victim. It was between the victim and a friend, and the victim told the friend about the alleged attack.

I also wanted to add that MSNOW led with a videotaped, unilateral denial from Eric Swalwell. I did think that he seems sincere in his denial. But of course, that's subjective, and I really have no idea what to think at this point.
