Second WH Staffer Accused Of Domestic Abuse Fires Back: It Was My Ex-Wife Who Abused Me

h/t Hot Air
Just to be clear, we’re talking here about David Sorensen, not Rob Porter. Sorensen is, or was, a speechwriter in Stephen Miller’s office. He quit yesterday when word got around that WaPo was planning a story based on his ex-wife’s tales of spousal abuse. Like Porter, Sorensen claims he’s innocent. Unlike Porter, he claims that he, not his ex, was the one getting knocked about. And he’s published a statement online, featuring photos and screenshots of texts, to support his story.
Incidentally, anybody heard anything from/about Roy Moore's accuses after the elections?

#1 The 'presumption of innocence' has been dead in the private sector for decades.

#2 "He said, she said scenario." Because of this, this should be allowed to play out without hysterics and politization. What are the facts? Should a person be treated like a leper the rest of his/her life for a marriage or relationship that went bad? Once it's over, shouldn't it be over? It is interesting that the domestic violence law was passed during the Clinton administration mostly as a way to deny people from buying guns.
