Pete Hegseth lawyer demands release of file on false sex assault claim

The media and communist Democrats tried to “Brett Kavanaugh” Pete Hegseth and now it’s blowing up in their faces.

Defense Secretary-designee Pete Hegseth is demanding a file from the Monterey County, Calif., district attorney’s office that his legal team believes may contain additional exonerating information about a 2017 sexual assault allegation against him, The Post can reveal.

The records request comes as some Democrats continue to cast doubt on the former Fox News personality’s innocence despite the release of a police file with details contradicting his accuser’s account.

The memorandum underpinning the decision not to prosecute Hegseth is believed to describe an earlier allegation of sexual misconduct made by the same woman in a different jurisdiction, Hegseth attorney Tim Parlatore said.

“As part of our investigation, we received credible information indicating that she may have made a similar false allegation against another man in the past and the DA may have relied upon this as part of their determination, in addition to other witnesses who contradicted her story,” Parlatore told The Post.
