A damning Tuesday report from Fox News claims that Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.) refused to pursue charges against physical and sexual abusers of children during her tenure as State Attorney General in North Dakota.
“North Dakota Sen. Heidi Heitkamp did not push to prosecute individuals responsible for physical and sexual abuse of students when she was the state’s Attorney General, with one accused school employee subsequently sexually assaulting a child,” according to the report (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/heidi-heitkamp-didnt-push-to-prosecute-sexual-physical-abuse-at-native-american-school-in-1990s).
The alleged abuse took place at a boarding school for troubled Native American children.
“The allegations of physical and sexual abuse at the Native American school were largely confirmed by four state and federal investigations conducted by the North Dakota Attorney General’s Office, the North Dakota Department of Human Services, the FBI, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs,” the report said.
In other words, Heitkamp ignored “credible accusations” of child sexual abuse, instead choosing to let a predator – who would eventually strike again – roam the streets. Just last week, Heitkamp refused to vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh due to allegations of sexual misconduct made by Christine Blasey Ford, which were neither provable nor corroborated.
