Joy Villa Tries to #MeToo Corey Lewandowski, Claims He Sexually Assaulted Her With Butt-Slap

The woman accusing President Donald Trump's former campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, of unwanted touching at a Trump International Hotel party last month has filed a sexual assault report with the Metropolitan Police Department detailing the incident.

Joy Villa, 31, a singer and Trump supporter who is exploring a congressional bid in Florida, says Lewandowski slapped her on the butt hard, twice -- even after she voiced an objection.

Villa said she provided the names of two eyewitnesses to the police department when she filed her report the day before Christmas, after POLITICO published details of her account.

She said that she told a detective she wanted to file a sexual harassment claim -- but was informed that the incident she was describing was considered a misdemeanor and that it belonged with the sex assault unit.

"The detective I talked to said that sexual harassment is what happens in the workforce," Villa said in an interview on Tuesday. "The detective told me, 'what you describe happened to you is sexual assault.'"

Villa said she is planning a trip to Washington to meet with investigators.

“I’m wearing this silver suit and stretchy pants, and after the photo, he smacks my ass really hard,” Villa told POLITICO in an exclusive interview last week. “It was completely demeaning and shocking.”

When she confronted Lewandowski and told him that she could accuse him of sexual harassment, Lewandowski laughed it off. “He said, ‘Go ahead, I work in the private sector,’” Villa recalled last week. “Then he smacks my ass again.”

Asked why she waited almost a month to speak out and file a claim, Villa said on Tuesday: “I feared that it could backfire on me. Ten times out of 10 the woman gets blamed no matter what.”
