Accusations Pile Up

Three additional women came forward on Wednesday to say former Vice President Joe Biden touched them in ways that made them uncomfortable shortly after Biden, in a two-minute video, pledged to be more mindful of women’s personal space. 

The women, Vail Kohnert-Yount, Sofie Karasek and Ally Coll, recounted instances in which they said Biden touched them in a Washington Post article published late Wednesday. 

Kohnert-Yount told the newspaper that Biden introduced himself to her and shook her hand when she was a White House intern in 2013.

"He then put his hand on the back of my head and pressed his forehead to my forehead while he talked to me," she told the Post in a statement. "I was so shocked that it was hard to focus on what he was saying. I remember he told me I was a 'pretty girl.'"
