Verifier’s note
AOL carries NBC News’ report that the former cadet was sued over allegations he drugged his pregnant former partner and forced her to take abortion pills; IndiaTimes, Fox News, IBTimes UK, Bored Panda, AP, and The New York Times also report the lawsuit. AOL’s other article republishes Fox News’ coverage, so it is derivative; the reports describe a recent lawsuit, consistent with the proposed event’s timing.
