Former Vice President Al Gore did not commit acts of sexual harassment "appropriate for criminal prosecution," according to office of the district attorney of Portland, Oregon, which has been investigating allegations that Gore made unwanted advances to a masseuse at a Portland hotel in 2006.
Portland, Ore. police vow "to conduct a thorough, fair and timely investigation"
An Oregon woman, Molly Hagerty, claimed that Gore propositioned her and tried to hug her when she came to his hotel room to give him a massage.
But Senior Deputy District Attorney Don Rees, in a memo to the D.A., Michael D. Schrunk, wrote that Hagerty gave no indication afterwards that she was upset, as she later claimed.
Rees noted that Hagerty sold her story to the National Enquirer, failed a polygraph test, thanked the hotel management two days after the alleged incident for sending business her way and "has not provided as repeatedly requested medical records she claims are related to the case."
Rees concludes, "This case is not appropriate for criminal prosecution. The matter is closed and the investigative materials will be returned to PPB [the Portland Police Bureau]."
Gore's spokeswoman, Kalee Kreider, issued a statement: "Mr. Gore unequivocally and emphatically denied this accusation when he first learned of its existence three years ago. He respects and appreciates the thorough and professional work of the Portland authorities and is pleased that this matter has now been resolved."
According to a 73-page "Confidential Special Report" made public by authorities on June 23, Hagerty, the "licensed massage therapist" who was not named at the time, said she was summoned to a suite at the upscale Lucia Hotel at the request of a guest, where "during the course of this massage session Al Gore did sexually assault me in his room."
In a detailed statement given to police more than two years after the alleged incident, the woman described her surprise at arriving for the massage appointment to find Gore drinking beer and opening his arms in a hug, saying, "Call Me Al."
Gore's spokesperson, Kalee Kreider, said Gore denied all claims of sexual assault made by Hagerty.  Former United States vice president Al Gore will not be facing assault charges due to allegations made by a masseuse in 2006, according to the , Oregon district attorney's office.

Molly Hagerty, 54, claimed Gore "sexually assaulted me in his hotel room." Hagerty was called to Gore's Portland hotel room to give him a massage. Hagerty said Gore pinned her down and "he kept trying to have sex with her."

Prosecutors closed the case, but after tabloid ''National Inquirer'' interviewed Hagerty they reopened the case. Hagerty refused to take a polygraph test.

Deputy DA Don Rees said there is "contradictory evidence, conflicting witness statements, credibility issues, lack of forensic evidence, and denials by Mr. Gore." 

Rees continued saying Hagerty and her attorneys were uncooperative in the investigation.
