Ex-Pelosi Aide in Hot Water: RAPE Accusations Emerge

Alright, folks. There’s a new accusation on the political board.

This guy’s named Kevin Ortiz, he’s a bigshot in the Latinx Democratic Club and he used to work for Nancy Pelosi.

Now, he’s in hot water because he’s been accused of sexually assaulting a former Senate aide, Zahra Hajee.

She used to work for U.S. Senator Alex Padilla.

According to a report from the San Francisco Chronicle, she claims Ortiz attacked her in the spring of 2021.

So, this is a big deal.

And it’s definitely not the kind of news you’d want to wake up to if you’re in the Democratic Party.

Then again, they keep waking up to bad news so this should be a normal Friday rfor them.

Washington Examiner adds:

This isn’t the first time Ortiz has been accused of inappropriate behavior. The outlet reported that a second woman alleged that Ortiz sexually assaulted her in 2019. She has declined to reveal her identity or file a police report.

Ortiz has rejected her accusations as well, saying the encounter was consensual and sending her a cease and desist letter, something he also did to Hajee.

Ortiz is one of several San Francisco Democrats who have been accused of inappropriate behavior in recent months.

Jon Jacobo, reported to run in the same political circles as Ortiz, faces allegations that he raped Sasha Perigo. Ortiz has defended Jacobo against the Bay Area affordable housing advocate’s accusations by sending Perigo a cease and desist letter.
