Leslie Milwee, a former broadcast news reporter, accused Bill Clinton of groping her on three separate occasions when she was working for a local television station in Fayetteville, Ark., in 1980.
In an interview with Breitbart News published Wednesday, Milwee claimed the former president made inappropriate comments to her inside an editing room at her news station, touched himself in front of her and sexually assaulted her when he was visiting her workplace. Clinton was serving as governor of Arkansas at the time Milwee alleged that he assaulted her.

Milwee also claimed that Clinton attempted to pursue her at her apartment one evening, at which point she decided to take a new job.
The newest allegation against Clinton comes hours before Donald Trump, who himself has recently been accused of sexual assault by several women, is set to debate his wife in the third and final presidential debate. Trump invited three other women who accused Clinton of sexual assault or rape to the second debate earlier this month where he held an impromptu press conference with them before taking the stage.
Several of Millwee’s co-workers confirmed her account in separate interviews with Breitbart, while Millwee herself said she was afraid to speak about up the alleged incidents until now because of the way Hillary Clinton treated her husband’s other accusers.
“I was very prepared to go forward then and talk about it, and I watched the way the Clintons and Hillary slandered those women, harassed them, did unthinkable things to them,” Millwee said.
“I did not want to be part of that,” she added.
Trump has denied all of the accusations of sexual assault against him, many of which emerged after he was caught making lewd comments about women in an audio tape from 2005.
Clinton has also denied certain previous allegations against him, though he settled a lawsuit involving one accuser, Paula Jones, in 1998 for $850,000. He offered no apology or admission of guilt at that time.
