Fifield, who dated Platner from 2013 to 2015, told The Washington Post that he did this at least six times and she confronted him about the behavior. Platner's campaign has dismissed Fifield's accusation as 'categorically false and politically motivated,' highlighting her background in conservative politics. These new claims follow previous sexual assault allegations against Platner by another ex-girlfriend, Jenny Racicot, and earlier accusations from Fifield of threatening physical conduct. Amid these controversies, prominent figures like Senator Bernie Sanders have urged Platner to withdraw from the Senate race, adding to a history of scandals, including a Nazi-symbol tattoo and profane Reddit posts.
