A close friend of the massage therapist who accused former Vice President Al Gore of repeated, unwanted sexual contact says the woman was not after money, and just wanted Gore held accountable.

Donna Burleigh told KGW the massage therapist called her after the alleged 2006 incident and described being sexually assaulted by a high-profile public figure. Burleigh said her friend wouldn't identify the alleged attacker. But Burleigh soon figured it out.

"She told me that her predator was coming back to town and guess what was on on the news?" Burleigh said. "Al Gore."

Burleigh said her friend was an honest woman and would never make up such a story. She said the massage therapist runs a professional business and was caught off guard by Gore's alleged advances.

"She is not a predator. She is not looking for money," Burleigh said. "She just wants him to be accountable for his actions."
