Fox News Contributor Slams Pete Hegseth For Sexual Assault And Adultery Allegations
HuffPost
"You can’t lead an entire organization and all these people if you can’t lead by example," Leslie Marshall said.
Fox News contributor Leslie Marshall slammed Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for defense secretary, on Sunday after the details of a sexual assault allegation against him were made public.
But Marshall first took aim at former Fox News host Hegseth’s alleged history of infidelity, a crime under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
“With all due respect to my former colleague, we know that there were three cases of adultery for Pete Hegseth, and it is relevant,” Marshall said on Fox News’ “MediaBuzz.” “And the reason why it’s relevant is, Article 134 of the UCMJ considers adultery against the military, which the Department of Defense is part of. You can’t lead an entire organization and all these people if you can’t lead by example, one.”
Marshall, who said she is a rape victim, then honed in on the sexual assault allegation that was recently made public.
“It’s very difficult for a woman to go in and have a rape kit done. It’s physically, mentally and emotionally very difficult to go through that process, as I have,” Marshall said. “Somebody doesn’t go into the hospital and subject herself to that. And I have to say, I, as a woman and as a victim, I believe the victims, and this is a problem for me. ... And then on top of that, although Pete has an incredible military career, he doesn’t have the leadership career in the military that I feel the Department of Defense requires as their head.”
