A second sexual assault allegation has been made against Virginia Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax.

The accuser’s lawyers issued a statement, Friday, alleging Fairfax raped a fellow Duke University student in 2000.

In a statement, Fairfax said he has quote: "never forced myself on anyone ever" and demanded a "full investigation intothese unsubstantiated and false allegations." He insists the encounter with the first female accuser — which took place at the 2004 Democratic National Convention — was consensual.

The allegations are adding to a firestorm of scandals embroiling Virginia’s top leaders.

Republican Senate Majority leader Tommy Norment has admitted he was the managing editor of the 1968 Virginia Military Institute yearbook which is covered with racist images and slurs.

And there is growing pressure for Democratic Governor Ralph Northam to resign over THIS racist photo from his medical school yearbook, AND his admission to wearing blackface to impersonate Michael Jackson in 1984.

Fairfax is the first in line to replace Northam.

The man second in line to replace him, Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, another Democrat, admits he too wore blackface at a college costume party in the 1980s.

Herring said in a recent statement that he showed poor judgment, calling his actions quote — “a minimization of a horrific history I knew well even then." Virginia’s congressional delegation - working behind the scenes heading into the weekend – trying to get to resign… but seemingly ready to forgive Herring, as he continued efforts to mend fences with the state’s political establishment.
