    Maybe. Evidence is not conclusive, but there is evidence. And even if not, they were certainly close friends, beyond the slave/slave owner relationship. And you know how one thing can lead to another...

    No, she was the victim of a rapist.

    She was only 15, when he started screwing her and got her pregnant.

    The notion was started as political hay in an effort to defame T.J.

    But "mistress" is a misnomer, as a slave isn't open to being able to say no.

    Undoubtedly, like many women today, she was willing to screw the boss in an effort to improve her situation.

    But those who carry the torch for T.J. have suggested that his brother was the one who got her pregnant- several times.

    Yeah right.
