Rep. Nancy Mace lays serious allegations of assault
South Carolina Republican spoke Monday on House floor
WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - Charleston Area Congresswoman Nancy Mace is accusing her ex fiancé of sexual assaulting her and others – and accusing the state Attorney General Alan Wilson of slow walking prosecution.
Representative Nancy Mace says her ex-fiancé filmed sexual acts with both her and other women without consent – including with those in an incapacitated state. She made the allegations Monday night during a nearly hour-long speech on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.
She also says the South Carolina Attorney General is not taking action.
“I’m going scorched earth.”
The South Carolina Republican says she accidentally uncovered heinous crimes allegedly committed by her ex fiancé – and multiple associates.
“We’re talking about rape. Non-consensual photos. Non-consensual videos of women and underage girls and the premeditated, pre-calculated exploitation of underage girls,” Rep. Mace said on the floor.
Mace’s fiancé categorically denied the allegations – and says he will cooperate fully with any legal process to clear his name.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division says it has been investigating allegations of assault and harassment since December 14. The agency notes it has conducted multiple interviews and served multiple warrants.
Rep. Nancy Mace was clear in her purpose, “The purpose of my speech tonight is to make sure these women will never be forgotten, and the men who hurt them, will never be allowed to get away with it or hide again.”
Mace says South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson did not take action on the case – despite evidence being turned in to authorities.
Rep. Pete Aguilar, a Democrat from California, was cautious in his response to Mace’s unusual speech.
“Very serious allegations, and I would hope that law enforcement would take a look if there is something there, but I’m not minimizing the importance of what she said.”
Wilson called Mace’s allegations against his office political. The two could face each other in the 2026 gubernatorial race.
Wilson said in a statement “Our office has not received any reports or requests for assistance from any law enforcement or prosecution agencies regarding these matters. Additionally, the Attorney General and of his office have had no role and no knowledge of these allegations until her public statements.”
In a press release, Mace’s office noted her floor statements are protected by the speech and debate clause of the constitution – which prevents of Congress from facing legal consequences for statements.
When asked to comment for this story – the Congresswoman’s office declined the interview.
