Attorneys: Rape allegations against GOP fundraiser are fabricated

Posted on: 9:03 pm, July 21, 2012, by Brittany Green-Miner and Scott McKane, updated on: 09:34pm, July 21, 2012

SALT LAKE CITY – The attorneys for a GOP fundraiser accused of four cases of sexual assault say that the charges against him are false.

Greg Peterson, an outspoken Tea Party activist and Republican fundraiser, was arrested Wednesday on more than two dozen charges related to the alleged rape and kidnapping of four women.

Jerry Salcido, one of Peterson’s attorneys, says that his client is frustrated with the charges and that they are certain they will be able to discredit the victims’ stories.

“Mainly for the fact these charges are, in our opinion, trumped up and false. They’re false allegations, he’s an innocent man being held in jail,” said Salcido. ”Two of the women, we’re confident we’ll be able to discredit their stories.”

an adament denial.

The second line of defense is to discredit the accuser's story.

Nothing new here.

But I do find it interesting that this big guy fund-raiser remains in jail. His attorney's line that they don't want him bonded out on a $750,000 bail because they think it excessive doesn't even pass the smell test. If you have it; you pay it ... and get it back once you show for trial.
