Police report details 2017 sexual assault claim against Pete Hegseth

A police report has revealed new details about a 2017 sexual assault claim against Pete Hegseth, a former Fox News host. The woman, identified as Jane Doe, stated she remembered saying "no" and alleged Hegseth blocked her from leaving his hotel room. The report, released after a public records request, shows that the incident occurred during a Republican women’s conference. Hegseth's attorney claimed the allegations were false, noting that no charges were filed after the investigation. The Monterey County District Attorney's Office declined to pursue the case in 2018, citing insufficient evidence. The report includes conflicting accounts from both Hegseth and Doe regarding their interactions that night.
