Walker, a former football star, condemned the report by The Daily Beast as a “flat-out lie” and pledged to sue the publication.
But his campaign was further rocked when Christian Walker sent a series of tweets attacking his father for “making a mockery” of the family.
“He decided to give us the middle finger and air out all of his dirty laundry in public, while simultaneously lying about it,” he wrote. The flurry of tweets from Christian Walker came after the Daily Beast reported that the woman, who asked the outlet not to be identified because of privacy concerns, became pregnant with Walker’s child. The outlet reported that Walker, who wasn’t married at the time, urged her to get an abortion and reimbursed her for the procedure.
The Daily Beast reported that the woman provided a copy of a signed $700 personal check from Walker, a “get well” card sent to the woman by Walker and a $575 receipt from the abortion clinic. The outlet published a photo of the “get well” card, which it said included Walker’s signature. The debate over abortion is one of the sharpest divides in race between Walker and Warnock, a Democrat who is an outspoken supporter of abortion rights.
