Another actress has come forward accusing former President George H.W. Bush of inappropriately touching her.

Another woman is publicly accusing former President George H.W. Bush of inappropriately touching her, Deadspin reported on Wednesday.
A New York actress named Jordana Grolnick told Deadspin that Bush groped her during a photo op at a theater in Maine last year.
"We all circled around him and Barbara for a photo, and I was right next to him," Grolnick told Deadspin. "He reached his right hand around to my behind, and as we smiled for the photo he asked the group, 'Do you want to know who my favorite magician is?'
"As I felt his hand dig into my flesh, he said, 'David Cop-a-Feel!'"
Grolnick said that people in the room "laughed politely and out of discomfort" and that the former first lady Barbara Bush "said something along the lines of, 'He's going to get himself put into jail!'"
