Witness in Cain accusation to come forward

By Catalina Camia, USA TODAY Updated 1h 2m ago

A former boyfriend of Sharon Bialek, who accused Herman Cain of sexual harassment, will come forward today to detail what he was told.

The man, identified only as a pediatrician, will hold a 1 p.m. CT/2 p.m. ET news conference with attorney Gloria Allred today in Shreveport, La.

Bialek was dating the pediatrician at the time she alleges Cain put his hand up her skirt in 1997 while she sought his help for a job. Allred says the man was given details by Bialek after the alleged incident.

The Allred news conference comes as Cain's wife, Gloria, is set to make her national television debut on Fox News. Gloria Cain in the interview says her husband, who leads some polls for the GOP presidential nomination, "totally respects women." Gloria Cain and her husband both say the accusations are not true.

Allred's news conference today was first reported by RadarOnline, which reports on celebrity news and gossip.
