[POLITICO] A ninth woman came has accused San Diego Mayor Bob Filner of sexual harassment, according to a report out Thursday.
Emily Gilbert told Fox 5 San Diego that the 70-year-old Democrat harassed her at a fundraiser where she was hired to sing in December.
"He grabbed me a little too tight, then proceeded to slide his hand down my arm and then did a little grab on my derriere," Gilbert said. "I didn't want to make a scene there were kids around."
She told Fox 5 she tried to laugh it off, but was embarrassed by the crude behavior.
Gilbert's husband said he felt helpless at the time.
"What was I going to do, he's the mayor," said Jason Gilbert.
He called on the mayor to resign and donate to a causes that help women.
"We don't want any money, but we think the mayor should make a donation to a woman's cause," Jason Gilbert said. "Actions speak louder then words. He needs to resign."
