Manhattan Prosecutor Opens Inquiry Into Swalwell Misconduct Claims

The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office has opened an investigation into sexual misconduct allegations against U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell, with four women accusing him of misconduct ranging from harassment to rape, including an alleged New York incident. Swalwell denies the claims and says he will defend himself with facts, while prosecutors urge survivors to come forward. The inquiry follows renewed scrutiny as Swalwell’s bid for California governor faces mounting political fallout and donor hesitation.
