People Are Sharing What They Looked Like At 14 After This Accusation Against A Candidate For Senate

"This is me at 14, a shy and innocent bookworm," one person shared.

On Thursday, the Washington Post reported allegations that Roy Moore, the Republican nominee for Senate in Alabama, had tried to initiate a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old when he was in his thirties.

Moore has vehemently denied the allegations.

"I don’t know Ms. Corfman from anybody," Moore said on Sean Hannity's radio show on Friday. "I've never talked to, never known her or anything." The candidate called the story "completely manufactured."

He once again denied the accusations on Saturday. "These attacks involve a minor, and they are completely false and untrue, about something that happened nearly 40 years ago," he said.
