South Carolina Representative Nancy Mace made shocking accusations on the House floor, claiming that her former fiancé and three other men drugged and raped her and other women, as well as taking lewd photographs of women and underage girls without their consent. In a highly emotional speech lasting close to an hour, Mace named the men involved and displayed their photographs, condemning their actions as exploitation of innocent individuals. Although she offered no evidence to support her claims, she stated that she had plenty of material corroborating the allegations.
While speaking on the House floor, Mace was protected by the speech and debate clause, which grants lawmakers immunity from criminal prosecution or civil suits when acting within the legislative sphere. Following her speech, her former fiancé, Patrick Bryant, denied her accusations. Mace did not provide any further details or evidence to support her claims, and declined to answer questions from reporters or provide corroboration.
The New York Times has not independently verified any of the allegations made by Mace. The accusations made by the congresswoman have shaken up the political landscape in South Carolina and raised significant questions about the alleged actions of the men involved. The controversy surrounding Mace’s accusations may have far-reaching implications as she continues to consider a run for governor in the upcoming elections.
