Renewed scrutiny huh?

I want to know why the scrutiny needed to be renewed. Why did scrutiny diminish under these kinds of allegations?

I can see from the comments something about this being affected by him becoming president, and I'm left here thinking, shouldn't the FBI/CIA/enforcement agencies, be able to operate without the president getting all up in their business?

That's just sad, honestly. I won't assume Trump is guilty until he is convicted of the crime, but there should be nothing that can prevent law enforcement from fully investigating what happened and providing justice for that girl.

The fact that this is a headline at all is pretty dark.
