ATLANTA — When the story broke Monday night alleging that Herschel Walker had paid a former girlfriend to have an abortion, the Republican U.S. Senate candidate wasted no time responding.
Within minutes he posted a tweet calling the claim a “flat-out lie” and promising a defamation lawsuit would be filed Tuesday morning against The Daily Beast, which published the story.
By Wednesday, no suit had been filed. The Walker campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
