The list of corroborating witnesses for Tara Reade increased on Monday when a former neighbor and a former colleague came forward saying that Reade told them about the incident back in the 1990s.
Lynda LaCasse, a former neighbor of Reade's, says that Reade told about the alleged assault back in 1995 or 1996. "This happened, and I know it did because I remember talking about it."
"I remember her saying, here was this person that she was working for and she idolized him," LaCasse said. "And he kind of put her up against a wall. And he put his hand up her skirt and he put his fingers inside her. She felt like she was assaulted, and she really didn't feel there was anything she could do."
According to LaCasse, Reade got emotional as she told the story. "She was crying, she was upset. And the more she talked about it, the more she started crying. I remember saying that she needed to file a police report."
