WASHINGTON\u2014Tara Reade, the former Senate staffer<\/a> who alleges Joe Biden sexually assaulted her 27 years ago, says she filed a limited report with a congressional personnel office that did not explicitly accuse him of sexual assault or harassment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember talking about him wanting me to serve drinks because he liked my legs and thought I was pretty and it made me uncomfortable,\u201d Reade said in an interview Friday with The Associated Press. \u201cI know that I was too scared to write about the sexual assault.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reade said she described her issues with Biden but \u201cthe main word I used\u2014and I know I didnt use sexual harassment\u2014I used uncomfortable. And I remember retaliation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reade described the report after the AP discovered additional transcripts and notes from its interviews with Reade last year in which she says she \u201cchickened out\u201d after going to the Senate personnel office. The AP interviewed Reade in 2019 after she accused Biden of uncomfortable and inappropriate touching. She did not raise allegations of sexual assault against Biden until this year, around the time he became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.<\/p>\n

The existence of the Senate report has become a key element of the accusations against Biden, which he has flatly denied<\/a>. Reade says she doesnt have a copy of the report, and Biden said on May 1 that he is not aware that any complaint against him exists. He asked the Senate and the National Archives to search their records to try to locate a complaint from Reade.<\/p>\n

But Reade is suggesting that even if the report surfaces, it would not corroborate her assault allegations because she chose not to detail them at the time.<\/p>\n

According to a transcript of her 2019 interview with the AP, Reade said: \u201cThey have this counseling office or something, and I think I walked in there once, but then I chickened out.\u201d She made a similar statement in a second interview with AP that same day, according to written notes from the interview.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Reade said she was referring to having \u201cchickened out\u201d by not filing full harassment or assault allegations against Biden. In multiple interviews with the AP on Friday, Reade insisted she filed an \u201cintake form\u201d at the Senate personnel office, which included her contact information, the office she worked for, and some broad details of her issues with Biden.<\/p>\n

Reade was one of eight women who came forward last year with allegations that Biden made them feel uncomfortable<\/a> with inappropriate displays of affection. Biden acknowledged the complaints and promised<\/a> to be \u201cmore mindful about respecting personal space in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

During one of the April 2019 interviews with the AP, she said Biden rubbed her shoulders and neck and played with her hair. She said she was asked by an aide in Bidens Senate office to dress more conservatively and told \u201cdont be so sexy.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said of Biden: \u201cI wasnt scared of him, that he was going to take me in a room or anything. It wasnt that kind of vibe.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AP reviewed notes of its 2019 interviews with Reade after she came forward in March with allegations of sexual assault against Biden. But reporters discovered an additional transcript and notes from those interviews on Friday.<\/p>\n

A recording of one of the interviews was deleted before Reade emerged in 2020 with new allegations against Biden, in keeping with the reporters standard practice for disposing of old interviews. A portion of that interview was also recorded on video, but not the part in which she spoke of having \u201cchickened out.\u201d<\/p>\n

The AP declined to publish details of the 2019 interviews at the time because reporters were unable to corroborate her allegations, and aspects of her story contradicted otheRead More From Source<\/a>
