Los Angeles County DA Considers Charges Against Eric Swalwell Over Allegations of Alleged Rape of Beverly Hills Woman

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office is currently reviewing a criminal case against former Rep. Eric Swalwell over allegations that he drugged, raped, and choked Beverly Hills woman Lonna Drewes in 2018, but no charging decision has been made.

According to multiple reports, the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department Special Victims Bureau is still in the early stages of investigating the allegations, which were first made public in April 2026 when Drewes accused Swalwell of drugging, sexually assaulting, and choking her during a July 2018 encounter in a West Hollywood hotel room.

Swalwell resigned from Congress in April.

In August, The Daily Mail reported, FBI agents confronted Swalwell with a search warrant when he landed at San Francisco Airport on Saturday. They then took the former congressman’s electronic devices, including his cell phone, reportedly as part of a federal criminal investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct.  Per the Standard, the warrant was issued under federal statute 18 U.S.C. § 242.

Swalwell is being accused of multiple counts of sexual misconduct and assault, a lengthy prison sentence appears firmly on the table should he be convicted.

In was previously reported that the Intel Community had a classified report detailing Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell’s intimate relationship with Fang Fang.

Hmmm… Democrat Congressional Candidate Claims She Was Raped at 2AM While Fixing a Campaign Sign in a Parking Lot and Was Called a “Democratic B*tch” — Then Waited 17 Days to Report the Alleged Assault

Democrat congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia, who is running in Arizona’s 8th Congressional District, says she was out fixing a campaign sign at 2 AM when she was hit in the back of the head and fell unconscious.

Greene-Placentia said she awoke with her pants down and one of her attackers still assaulting her, according to an interview with the Phoenix New Times.

Then, according to Greene-Placentia, her assaulter called her a “democratic b*tch, not a very good f*ck.”

According to USA Today, Greene-Placentia reported the assault on Aug. 31, the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office confirmed, and went public with what happened in an interview with the New Times on Oct. 7.

Greene-Placentia, a former long-haul trucker, is allegedly known for an anti-ICE campaign song. It doesn’t sound like border security is her thing.

The weird song has 801 views, so maybe she is not so famous as the campaign claims.

Greene-Placentia waited 17 days to report the alleged brutal crime to police. She says she told her husband about the alleged attack three days later.

Greene-Placentia is running against conservative stalwart Rep. Abe Hamadeh. She says Bidenomics ruined her career as a long-haul truck driver. But she’s running as a Democrat.

Hamedeh’s campaign released a statement calling on authorities to investigate the serious accusations.

Rob Schmitt from Newsmax said this: “No clue what to make of this.”

British Home Secretary: Nearly All Women Trying to Reach the UK by Boat Are Raped on the Journey

British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has made an extraordinary admission about Britain’s Channel migration system, saying “you can almost guarantee that every woman” waiting in northern France has “probably been raped along the journey,” according to reports from the British press.

Mahmood then delivered the line that will reverberate through Britain’s immigration debate: “We’re not in control of this border.” The Home Secretary admitted that criminal trafficking organizations effectively determine which migrants reach northern France and ultimately board dinghies for Britain.

“The sifting of the people that end up in the north of France and are about to get on a dinghy is done by criminal gangs who are also, by the way, people traffickers,” she said. Mahmood added that male migrants are also subjected to abuse, intimidation and threats along the journey.

Her description presents a brutal contradiction at the heart of the Channel system: Britain says it controls immigration, yet organized smugglers can still decide who boards boats and reaches British waters. For immigration restrictionists and sovereigntists, Mahmood’s own language amounts to unusually direct confirmation of their argument that border sovereignty remains compromised.

Mahmood herself argued that such a system cannot determine who eventually settles in Britain. “That is not the model that should decide whether somebody gets to come to the UK, make this their place of sanctuary and ultimately become one of us,” she said.

Her comments came as another large migrant boat reached British waters off Hampshire, bringing the border crisis to Gosport rather than the usual landing points farther east. French rescue vessels shadowed the dinghy before two RNLI boats met it in British waters and brought 149 migrants ashore.

The Home Office confirmed that those aboard would be transported to Kent for processing and undergo health, biometric and security checks. Government officials said contingency arrangements had been activated so the arrivals could be “securely disembarked, checked and processed.”

Additional Text Messages Appear to Unravel Cornell Gang-Rape Allegations

The Cornell University Gang Rape Story unraveled a little more Wednesday when additional text messages between the alleged victim (known only as Jane Doe) and one of the men she’s accusing of rape were released.

Two years ago, in the early hours of October 20, 2024, 20-year-old Jane Doe claims she was gang raped by seven members of Cornell University’s Chi Phi fraternity. Until she filed a massive civil suit earlier this week alleging it was rape, all the contemporaneous statements from Jane Doe (that we’ve seen) indicate she voluntarily took drugs and engaged in four hours of consensual group sex with the men.

This includes a statement Jane Doe gave to the campus police about three weeks after the event on November 8.

The campus police showed  this statement to the local district attorney, Matthew Van Houten, who said then that “Jane Doe’s statement described her participation in drug use and sexual conduct as voluntary, conscious, and consensual.”

Earlier this week, CBS News uncovered texts it says are between Jane Doe and one of the accused where she flat-out says that “none of the sexual stuff was illegal,” that she enjoyed being with him and another guy, and would like to get together again.

Now ABC News has uncovered even more texts where Jane Doe expresses regret for her behavior, especially after gossip about the group sex made its way around campus, but she still says it was consensual.

Left-Wing Author and Professor Camille Paglia Talks About Cornell Rape Allegations, Rips Today’s Feminists for Trying to Have it Both Ways on Sexual Consent 

In case you haven’t heard, there is a new high-profile college campus rape case, this time at Cornell University. A young woman claims she was raped during a party by more than one male student, but others say she gave consent to the sexual activity.

During a recent interview, left wing professor Camille Paglia tore into today’s feminists for trying to have it both ways on the issue of sexual consent, suggesting that women cannot claim to be empowered and then demand to be treated like children.

It’s not the first time that Paglia has made this type of point and it probably won’t be the last.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

QUESTION: You don’t think there’s a problem with sexual assault? Because a lot of women are coming forward now.

CAMILE PAGLIA: No. In cases of real rape, of course it should be prosecuted. Of course real rape is a crime.

But this is not real rape.

We’ve been arguing about dating encounters with miscommunications now for decades. It’s absolutely infantilizing to women. It must stop.

QUESTION: But you know that a lot of women are afraid of sexual assault or have been sexually assaulted.

Should they not be able to go and drink and play beer pong and get drunk like the guys do? They live in fear.

CAMILE PAGLIA: If you go to a fraternity-house party, with the chaos going on in the living-room area, and a young man says to you, “Would you like to go up to my room?” I’m sorry — you are consenting to sex.

Liberals approved 26 male-born inmates for women’s prisons as sexual-assault charges surface in court case

Correctional Service Canada approved 26 inmates assigned male at birth for placement in women’s institutions from fiscal 2019–20 through 2025–26, according to a response to Conservative MP Frank Caputo’s Order Paper question. Ten approvals came in 2022–23 alone.

The figures technically count approvals, not the number of those inmates currently housed in women’s prisons. CSC provided no breakdown by institution or offence, withholding that information on privacy grounds. It said CSC, rather than a judge, made each placement decision.

Those decisions are under scrutiny in a constitutional lawsuit brought by Canadian Women’s Sex-Based Rights, with lawyers funded by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms. The group argues that placing inmates born male in women’s prisons puts female prisoners at risk.

Ottawa’s statement of defence confirms that two complaints at Grand Valley Institution for Women in Kitchener led to criminal charges. After a female inmate complained in April 2020, one gender-diverse inmate was charged with sexual assault and criminal harassment. Following a separate complaint in October 2024, another was charged with two counts of sexual assault. The filing does not say those charges resulted in convictions.

The government also acknowledged other complaints, while disputing or saying it could not verify many of the lawsuit’s allegations. At Grand Valley, a 2018 sexual-assault complaint prompted a police investigation, but no charges were laid. At Fraser Valley Institution in British Columbia, a woman reported in 2021 that another inmate had sexually and physically assaulted her. Police opened a file, but the complainant declined to speak with them. At Saskatchewan’s Okimaw Ohci Healing Lodge, a woman reported a sexual assault in 2019 but did not provide details or pursue charges, according to the defence.

The filing describes two physical altercations at Fraser Valley, in 2017 and 2019, involving gender-diverse and female inmates. CSC says its investigations found both participants were instigators in each altercation. It also says one other sexual-assault allegation at Grand Valley was later retracted by the complainant.

Ottawa denies that any alleged harm flowed from its gender-diverse inmate policy. CSC says it assesses transfer requests individually, including risks to other prisoners, and can deny a request when safety concerns cannot be adequately addressed. 

The constitutional challenge remains before the Federal Court.

74% Of Sex-Crime Suspects In Spain’s Basque Country Are Foreigners

Foreign-born suspects account for nearly three-quarters of sexual-crime arrests in Basque Country, official figures show

Official statistics released by the Basque regional police, the Ertzaintza, indicate that people born outside Spain made up 58.7 percent of all arrests in the first half of 2026 even though they represent 10.2 percent of the population.

The disparity is sharper in several high-profile offense categories.

Of the 107 people detained for crimes against sexual freedom, 79 were born abroad, making up 74 percent of arrests in this category, according to data obtained by The Objective.

Foreign-born suspects also accounted for 73.3 percent of homicide arrests and 61.3 percent of those for causing injury.

The highest shares appeared in other offences: 94.7 percent of drunk-driving arrests (36 of 38), 79.6 percent of theft arrests (222 of 279), and 77.6 percent of robberies involving violence or intimidation (253 of 326).

The figures come from data the Basque Department of Security, which began publishing this data systematically at the end of 2025. Until then, the Ertzaintza routinely omitted the birthplace of detainees.

Security councillor Bingen Zupiria of the PNV said the change followed “tremendous pressure” from the Popular Party (PP) and Vox in the Basque parliament. Police unions supported the move as a contribution to “crime prevention.”

After that pressure, Zupiria stated, the department was forced to “change its criteria.” Arrests are now broken down first by continent and then by region, including North Africa, the rest of Africa, Latin America, or Europe.

The publication of these breakdowns ended a long-standing practice of withholding origin information that the Basque government said had created more confusion than clarity. Citizens, officials argued, have a right to see the actual composition of recorded crime.

Within the foreign-born group, those originating from North Africa are notable for their high offense rates.

They form roughly 1.8 percent of the Basque population yet accounted for 37 percent of homicide arrests, 24 percent of sexual-assault arrests, 64 percent of theft arrests, 48 percent of robberies with force, and 66 percent of violent robberies in the first six months of the year.

Suspects from the rest of Africa and from Latin America also appear over-represented in several categories of crimes against persons and property.

Overall arrests have been rising. The Ertzaintza recorded 6,903 in 2021 and 9,222 in 2025. The first half of 2026 already produced 5,050. If the pace continues, the year would end with a record of about 10,100.

Only the Basque and Catalan regional forces currently publish the origin of suspects to the general public. However, an internal document obtained earlier this year showed that, across Spain as a whole, foreigners accounted for 51 percent of daily arrests (527 of 1,033). The share was higher in Madrid (64 percent), Catalonia (71.8 percent) and Murcia (60 percent), close to the Basque figure of 59 percent.

Other research has shown that foreigners commit 500 percent more rapes than Spaniards and 400 percent more murders.

Prison data from the Basque Department of Justice for August 2026 shows 722 of the 1,967 inmates (36.7 percent) were foreign-born.

Among those under 25, the proportion rose to 65.9 percent, or two out of three.

California Democrat Ex-Mayor Found Liable for Sexually Assaulting Seven Women — Jury Hits Him With $13 Million Bill After State AG Rob Bonta Refused to Charge Him

A Sonoma County jury on Friday delivered a unanimous civil verdict against former Windsor, California, Mayor Dominic Foppoli, finding him liable for sexually assaulting seven women and ordering him to pay more than $13 million in compensatory damages.

According to Fox News, the awards ranged from roughly $6,000 to $4.65 million per plaintiff. Jane Doe 7 received about $4.65 million. Jane Doe 1 received about $3.8 million.

The jury also found the Santa Rosa chapter of the all-male Active 20-30 Club liable in one of the cases and ordered an additional $2 million.

Punitive damages have not been decided. That phase was set to begin this week after jurors found clear and convincing evidence that Foppoli acted with oppression, fraud, or malice.

Foppoli, 44, has never been criminally charged. That is the part California’s political class would prefer you not dwell on.

The allegations first exploded in April 2021, when the San Francisco Chronicle published accounts from four women. By the end of that spring, 13 women had accused the Wine Country politician of sexual assault or misconduct spanning nearly two decades. Foppoli resigned as mayor in May 2021.

Seven of those women filed a joint civil lawsuit in 2022. The trial that just ended ran about eight weeks.

Democrat-Appointed California Judge Charged With Sexually Assaulting Courthouse Staff and Cooking Up a Fake Motorcycle Alibi

A Democrat-appointed California judge sat on the Fresno County Superior Court for more than two decades.

Federal prosecutors now say that while he still wore the robe, he led a judicial assistant into a courthouse stairwell and sexually assaulted her, then lied to the FBI and tried to doctor records to cover a second incident involving another court employee found passed out in his chambers.

Adolfo M. Corona was put on the Fresno County Superior Court in 2003 by Democratic Gov. Gray Davis. A judicial profile listed his political affiliation as Democrat. He stayed on the bench until May 1, 2024.

According to ABC30 Fresno, no plea deal has been offered. A trial confirmation hearing is expected in July 2027, with a jury trial tentatively scheduled for August.

According to the news outlet:

Adolfo Corona faces five felony counts, including three counts of making false statements and a count of altering documents. The most serious count is deprivation of rights under color of law resulting in bodily Injury and including a non-consensual sexual act.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Erica P. Grosjean set the tentative trial date for 11 months from now, on Aug. 10. The attorneys in the case estimated the trial could last a month, including the time it takes to select a jury.

[…]

Corcoran and prosecutor Cody Chapple told the judge they had spoken informally about a plea deal. Chapple said his offer was “dead on arrival.”

He told the judge that prosecutors had turned over about 8,600 pages of evidence to Corona’s attorney.

If convicted, Corona could be sentenced to 40 years in prison for sexual assault and 20 years each for the obstruction charges.

According to a U.S. Department of Justice announcement, a federal grand jury indicted Corona on five counts in August 2025.

Prosecutors allege that on March 14, 2024, while Corona was still serving as a judge,he lured a judicial assistant into a courthouse stairwell, where he sexually assaulted her.

Ottawa admits trans-identifying male inmates faced sex assault charges after transfers to women’s prisons

The federal government has acknowledged that trans-identifying male inmates faced sexual-assault charges following complaints from female prisoners, while defending the policy that allows inmates to be transferred to women’s institutions based on gender identity.

The admissions are contained in Ottawa’s Statement of Defence responding to a constitutional challenge filed by Canadian Women’s Sex-Based Rights, or CAWSBAR.

According to the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, which is funding the challenge, the government confirmed that an inmate identified as S/M was charged with one count of sexual assault and one count of criminal harassment in May 2020 after a female inmate complained.

Ottawa also confirmed that another inmate, identified as KF/R, was charged with two counts of sexual assault after a complaint from a female prisoner in October 2024.

Charges have not been proven in court.

The government’s defence acknowledges other complaints involving trans-identifying male inmates in women’s facilities. They include a 2018 complaint that led to a police investigation but no charges, a 2021 complaint alleging sexual and physical assault at Fraser Valley Institution and a 2019 sexual-assault report at Okimaw Ohci Healing Lodge.

Despite those incidents, Ottawa “wholly denies that any alleged harm to inmates housed in women’s institutions flowed from the implementation” of Correctional Service Canada’s gender policy.

The government argues that individualized assessments and institutional safeguards provide an appropriate framework for managing risks.

CAWSBAR launched the constitutional challenge in April 2025, alleging that permitting biological male inmates to be housed in women’s prisons exposes female prisoners to physical and psychological harm and violates their Charter right to life, liberty and security of the person.

“Female inmates are being exposed to real risks and real harm,” constitutional lawyer Chris Fleury said. “This case is about protecting their safety, dignity and constitutional rights.”

Correctional Service Canada introduced its current gender-diverse-offender policy in May 2022.

In May 2026, the Federal Court rejected Ottawa’s attempt to strike the lawsuit and granted CAWSBAR public-interest standing. The federal government is now asking the court to dismiss the challenge with costs.
