George W Bush accused by Actress Lind for sexually assaulting her

Former President of the United States George W Bush apologised for an “attempt at humour” after actress Heather Lind accused him of sexually assaulting her during the 2014 photo-op for American Revolutionary War drama Turn: Washington’s Spie.

Referring to a gig where all five living former US presidents were present on the stage, Lind said, “I was disturbed today by a photo I saw of President Barack Obama shaking hands with George H. W. Bush in a gathering of ex-presidents organising aid to states and territories damaged by recent hurricanes.”

She said she got a chance to meet George HW Bush some four years ago to promote a historical television show she was working on. “…he sexually assaulted me while I was posing for a similar photo,”. “He didn’t shake my hand. He touched me from behind from his wheelchair with his wife Barbara Bush by his side. He told me a dirty joke." she said.
