Trump Donor Trashelle Odom Files Police Report Accusing Corey Lewandowski Of Harassment

A top donor for former President Donald Trump, who has accused Corey Lewandowski, head of Trump’s super PAC, of repeatedly making unwanted sexual advances, filed the police report about the incident on Friday.

Trashelle Odom, a Trump supporter from Idaho, alleged that Lewandowski that while seated next to her at a charity dinner in Las Vegas, talked about his genitalia, bragged about his sexual performance and touched her repeatedly.

“On the evening of September 26 in Las Vegas, Nevada, I attended a dinner to support a charity and spend time with wonderful friends,” Odom said in a statement. “[Lewandowski] repeatedly touched me inappropriately, said vile and disgusting things to me, stalked me, and made me feel violated and fearful.”

Odom further stated that she tried to reject his physical advances ten times. The Trump donor also accused Lewandowski of stalking her after dinner.

“I went into my room crying and trembling as I did not know if I had just ruined everything that my family had worked so hard to grow,” Odom said in the statement.

In a statement, John Odom, Trashelle’s husband, hopes that law enforcement will pursue justice in this case.

“We believe in law enforcement, and are hopeful that the police and prosecutors will use this information to pursue justice,” John Odom said. “For all others with information regarding this man’s violent, harassing, and traumatizing behavior, we encourage you to speak up. Accountability is sorely needed.”
