DANIEL ISLAND — A woman has filed a civil lawsuit that closely mirrors the explosive abuse allegations U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace made in a House floor speech earlier this year.
The plaintiff, described as Jane Doe in the suit, accuses some of the same men Mace named in her Feb. 10 speech of recorded voyeurism and sexual assault, further escalating claims that have drawn national attention and prompted a series of lawsuits.
Mace, R-Charleston, said May 29 she is not the Jane Doe behind the new lawsuit as she addressed the filing during a press conference she called inside her regional congressional office.
