Roy Moore accuser’s home burns down in arson attack

One of Roy Moore’s accusers has lost her home in a suspected arson attack. 

Tina Johnson’s home in Gadsden, Alabama, went up in flames on Tuesday morning. There was no one inside the home at the time. 

Police say they have identified a suspect who is known in the area for being drunk and misbehaved.

They do not think it had anything to do with Johnson, 55, publicly accusing Roy Moore of sexual misconduct during his unsuccessful senate campaign, according to WBRC.   

This is what remains of Tina Johnson’s home in Gadsden, Alabama, after a suspected arson attack. Johnson spoke out against Roy Moore in November to claim he sexually assaulted her in his office in 1991

The fire destroyed the home on Tuesday morning. Neither Ms Johnson nor any member of her family was inside at the time

On Friday, she told AL.com how she had lost everything in the fire. 

‘I am devastated, just devastated. We have just the clothes on our backs,’ she said. 

Police have not released the name of the man they believe may have been involved but he is not through to have been motivated by Johnson’s remarks about Moore.

On Tuesday morning, residents said they saw the man walking around the back of the home. 

He asked one woman if he thought it would burn down. No arrests have yet been made.

In November, Johnson gave a detailed description of how Moore allegedly molested her in his office in Gagsden in the 1990s when she went to him for his legal expertise during a custody battle over her son. 

Her mother had accompanied her to the meeting but it did not stop Moore from ‘grabbing’ her buttocks as she left, she claimed. 

‘He didn’t pinch it; he grabbed it,’ she said at the time. 

At the start of the meeting, Moore remarked on how ‘pretty’ she was and made her feel uncomfortable, she said.  

Johnson spoke out along with other women in the hope of blocking him from taking office.

Despite being backed wholeheartedly by President Trump throughout his campaign and dismissing the allegations against him as false, Moore could not overcome them. 

He lost the special election to Democrat Doug Jones on December 12, turning Alabama blue from red for the first time in 25 years.
