Atlanta Journal-Constitution: “A Texas woman told police in 2012 that when she tried to end what she said was a long romantic relationship with Republican U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker he threatened to “blow her head off” and then kill himself.
The woman, Myka Dean, detailed the alleged threats made by Walker to authorities in the Texas city of Irving in a January 2012 police report obtained by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. No charges were filed against Walker. His campaign spokeswoman said Friday that he “emphatically denies these false claims” and that he only recently learned about them.
The officer wrote that Dean grew “very reserved” as she spoke and worried her statement would harm Walker, whom she described as the “love of her life.” But the officer reported that he was so alarmed by her allegations that he wanted to document them. Dean died in 2019, and her family issued a statement supportive of Walker that said they were unaware of the threats.
Dean is the second woman who was involved romantically with Walker to accuse him of making violent threats. His ex-wife, Cindy Grossman, has also said he threatened her life, and a recent Associated Press report unearthed documents that show a judge granted Grossman a protective order in 2005 after outlining his alleged threats to shoot her in the head.””
