"But to my knowledge, he was not banned from the mall."

The former manager of the mall in Alabama that some claim GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore was banned from dropped a bombshell in a recent interview with a local FOX affiliate station in Birmingham.

Barnes Boyle, who managed the Gadsden Mall from 1981 to 1996, told WBRC FOX 6 on Wednesday that Roy Moore was not actually banned from the local mall for approaching teenaged girls.

"Sure, it was part of the job," Boyle said. "We did have written reports and things. But to my knowledge, he was not banned from the mall."

Boyle's claims directly contradict a report in The New Yorker, a strong left-leaning publication, that said Moore was banned from the mall for soliciting sex from teenagers.

The claim that Moore was banned from the mall is just the latest claim to come under public scrutiny as MSNBC's Katy Tur intensely questioned attention-crazed attorney Gloria Allred about the validity of a yearbook that Moore is alleged to have signed that would connect him to one of his accusers.

After pressuring Allred several times about the yearbook, Tur backed Allred into a corner and forced her to answer whether her client ever saw Roy Moore sign the yearbook.

"But did she see him sign it?" Tur asked.

"You know, I don't - I haven't asked her if she saw him, but we did describe what happened that evening in question," Allred responded. "What she alleges was that she put it on the counter; that I think she asked to sign - or that he did sign it. That's all."
