Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel with Hillary Clinton
Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel with Hillary Clinton
In a YouTube video uploaded in 2012, an unidentified woman accused Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel of having an affair with her and forcing her to get an abortion when she was 17 years old.

In a series of three videos uploaded to a channel called "Barry Israel," the unidentified woman claims to have been in a six month long relationship with Israel. In the videos, she addresses Israel directly - seeming scorned and angry.

"Hi Scott, it's me again. You know that at 17, because of you, I had to have an abortion. Now I'm finding out that you have three kids - and a kid from another marriage, and a wife of 20 years and you're happily married. Are you serious?" the woman asks.

The description for the video reads:
"You know about the illegitimate child of Broward County Sheriff's candidate Scott Israel. The happily married father of triplets, also had a girlfriend who had an abortion. Scott's family and friends know nothing about this 'friend' he kept on the side for six-months.

Integrity? That's Scott Israel. Illegitimate children? That's Scott Israel. A much younger girlfriend on the side? That's Scott Israel. A former girlfriend who had to have an abortion? That's Scott Israel.

When voting on November 6th, please vote Scott Israel for Broward County Sheriff.

The video was unearthed as Sheriff Israel has began using his position to lobby for Democratic policies in the wake of last week's deadly school shooting.

Israel's wife Susan made her own video responding to the allegations however, and accused her husband's opponent of hiring an actress to make the allegations.
