Rep. Nancy Mace Alleges Rape and Misconduct by Ex-Fiancé and Others in House Speech

The South Carolina congresswoman accused four men of heinous crimes, criticized the state attorney general, and called for justice during an unprecedented address.

Nancy Mace accused her ex-fiancé Patrick Bryant and three other South Carolina men of rape, assault, and filming women without consent during a 53-minute House floor speech.
Mace claimed she discovered thousands of videos and photos of alleged assaults on Bryant's phone, including non-consensual recordings of herself and other women, some of whom were underage.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division confirmed it has been investigating Bryant since December 2023, though all four men named by Mace have denied the allegations.
Mace harshly criticized South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, accusing him of failing to act on her evidence; Wilson's office denied receiving any reports or requests related to her claims.
The speech, delivered with the protection of the House's speech and debate clause, has drawn significant attention as Mace considers a 2026 gubernatorial run in South Carolina.
