Description
From the Sacramento Bee
http://www.sacbee.com/news/local/article67680237.html
The woman who accused Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson of molesting her two decades ago when she was a teenager in Phoenix appeared on camera to tell her story for the first time Tuesday night.
In an interview on HBO’s “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel,” Mandi Koba said she has blamed herself for years for keeping silent. If she had spoken out, she said, she perhaps could have prevented other girls and women from being victimized. Koba accused Johnson of molesting her in 1996, when she was 16 and he was playing for the Phoenix Suns.
She said she trusted Johnson as an older mentor figure, and knew she stood little chance of prevailing against him in court. “Who were they going to believe, the 17-year old with anorexia and depression, or the celebrity favorite basketball player of Phoenix,” she said in Tuesday’s interview with reporter David Scott.
