NEW: Alleged Mueller accuser WILL NOT be at today's press conference with Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman

Well, this was predictable.

The woman who is alleging she was sexually assaulted by former FBI Director Robert Mueller WILL NOT be at today’s Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman press conference, saying she’s now “fearful for her life“:

Update: after Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman claimed over and over that their Mueller accuser would be there, they now say the woman won't be at the event because she's "fearful for her life." pic.twitter.com/Um6vlvzsFk

It’s a pattern:

The much-hyped witness who disappears at the last minute is a classic Jack Burkman move, by the way. By my count this is the third time he's done this.

Just one hour or so ago, Wohl had teased that the woman would indeed be there:

See you at press conference

So much for this then:

The woman to whom we allegedly offered payment–Lorraine Parsons–does not exist. The allegations are an outright joke. This entire backstory is a hoax designed to distract the nation from my press
conference on Thursday, which is where all eyes need to be.

Let's set the story straight. There are 2 women who the press suggests somehow we offered to pay. All of it false. Lorraine Parsons, a person who does not exist & Jen Taub, who does exist, but received an email from a person who does not exist. Thursday we unveil the real accuser
