5th accuser comes forward against Rep Eric Swalwell ahead of expected resignation

A fifth woman accused Rep. Eric Swalwell of rape in 2018, adding to previous allegations against the California Democrat, who is expected to resign. The accuser, Lana Drews, detailed the incident during a Beverly Hills news conference organized by her attorneys. This follows multiple prior accusations of sexual misconduct involving Swalwell, including a former staffer, and comes as House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries endorsed the resignations of Swalwell and Rep. Tony Gonzales.
