U.S. Senator John Kennedy grilled Anna St. John during a tense Senate hearing over how allegations of sexual harassment and assault should be handled under the law. Kennedy questioned whether victims should retain multiple avenues for seeking redress, including private resolution, mediation, arbitration and court proceedings. St. John, who was picked by Trump as the district judge for Eastern District of Louisiana, agreed that victims can pursue different options, prompting Kennedy to repeatedly seek clarification on whether removing one form of dispute resolution would actually advance the interests of victims. The questioning focused on the balance between taking allegations seriously, protecting accusers and preserving due process and legal options. Kennedy also asked whether acts of sexual harassment should be considered repugnant and whether those making allegations should have their claims heard under the rule of law and due process. #JohnKennedy #AnnaStJohn #SenateHearing #Sexu
