1996 Police Interview Of Kevin Johnson Accuser Surfaces

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – New video has emerged of the interview between police and the first woman to publicly accuse Mayor Kevin Johnson of inappropriate behavior.

Mandi Koba broke her silence in an interview with Deadspin earlier this year, saying Johnson sexually assaulted her when she was 15.

At the time, Johnson was 29 and playing in the NBA for the Phoenix Suns.

In the 1996 interview video, Koba describes in graphic detail to police investigators what Johnson allegedly did to her.

Koba, now 36, is not the only one to accuse Johnson of inappropriate behavior. In the early 2000s, investigators uncovered reports that young girls at St. Hope Academy, the charter school Johnson founded, accused him of sexual harassment. And back in April, a city employee filed a claim against Johnson, alleging he made unwanted sexual advances toward her.

No legal action was ever taken in the St. Hope case, and the city attorney has denied the claim made by the employee. Further, the city attorney said an independent investigation by an outside law firm could not substantiate the employees allegations.

Investigators declined to prosecute Johnson in Koba's case. Johnson reportedly settled with Koba's family for $230,000.
