Jenny Racicot describes in detail how Graham Platner allegedly forced his way into her home while “heavily intoxicated” and ignored her repeated refusals. She says he jumped on top of her with clear sexual intentions despite her saying no multiple times. RACICOT: “It was a night where him and I were texting back and forth and he had taken something that I said as, as an invitation, and that’s not how I meant it.” “And I quickly clarified, and he sent a message back indicating that he would come over.” “And I said, no, don’t come over. Like I’m not in the mood. Don’t come over. And I was more stern with that message.” “And then I didn’t hear back from him. So I thought that that meant he got the message or gave up on it or whatnot.” “And so um, like half an hour later, I heard a noise outside my door and, um, then he, he came in, he just came into my house. It was unlocked. I live in an area where you don’t usually have to lock your doors. Um, I do now.” “So, um, he came in and I realized, okay, he didn’t listen. He’s in my home and I was laying on the couch.” “And so he had kind of like jumped on top of me and indicated that he had intentions that were sexual in nature.” “And I remember just at first being like, hey, I’m not into this. Like, don’t, I’m not in the mood. Like, don’t whatever.” “Um, and it got to the point where I was like, okay, I feel like I’ve said this enough times. Like he’s not listening to me or he’s not hearing me.” “And I looked at him and I remember this very specific look in his eyes, and I could smell alcohol.” “And I was like, this is different. He is heavily intoxicated, like, and that blank stare was kind of like a photographic memory that, that I still have of that night.” “That was me recognizing what the situation was. And this wasn’t just like, oh, hey, somebody showed up and I’m going to tell him to go home. Like he was heavily intoxicated and had intentions with me and wasn’t listening when I said no.”
