Vulcan King Accusers Come Forward

The three girls who say the Vulcan King from the St. Paul Winter Carnival sexually assaulted them shared their side of the case. The young bartenders say Tom Trudeau sexually molested them while putting garters on their legs at Alary's Bar in downtown St. Paul. At a brief news conference, the women appeared with their attorney. One was identified as Kate Richardson, 20. The other two women, both 19, did not disclose their names.

The girls said they are all still employed by the bar, but did not answer reporter questions. Trudeau continues to maintain his innocence through his lawyer. However, the attorney for the women says the defendant did apologize to his clients.
