Christine Blasey Ford has no plans to further pursue allegations against Brett Kavanaugh: Attorney
ABC News ^ | 6 October 2018

WASHINGTON -- With a Senate confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh all but guaranteed, Christine Blasey Ford has no further plans to pursue her sexual misconduct allegations against Kavanaugh.

When asked about the possibility of impeachment proceedings, attorney Deborah Katz told CNN: "Professor Ford has not asked for anything of the sort. What she did was to come forward and testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee and agree to cooperate with any investigation by the FBI, and that's what she sought to do here."

"She does not want him to be impeached?" CNN's Dana Bash later asked.

"No," Katz replied flatly.

Ford's attorney Lisa Banks added that Ford feels she did the right thing by testifying and has no regrets.

Kavanaugh's pathway to confirmation seemed unfettered until Ford accused him of drunkenly sexually assaulting her in a locked bedroom at a 1982 high school gathering. Two other women later emerged with sexual misconduct allegations from the 1980s. Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

Kavanaugh's foes cast him as a product of a hard-drinking, male-dominated, private school culture in Washington's upscale Maryland suburb of Bethesda. He and his defenders asserted that his high school and college focus was on academics, sports and church

No, we should absolutely not just let her just walk away. She must face prosecution for her false accusation. Otherwise, others will do it again since they will know there are no consequences for making a false allegation.

Prosecute her to the fullest extent of the law!

Ford's purpose for being at the hearings has been served and failed utterly: she was there to get BK to withdraw himself from consideration for SCOTUS.

The Dems know that most Repubs are quite the milquetoast, and will fold like a wilted flower in the Texas heat. But BK, thanks to President Trump, stood up to them (to their amazement and consternation!).

I hope BK remembers how he got to SCOTUS and, while ruling objectively, makes sure the Dems pay dearly, for all the years and decades he will serve!

This is going to take a Federal Prosecutor, and a Federal Grand Jury, to get at the truth. They need to get access to all her deleted social media, emails, health records, including mental health, etc. I would like to see the Manafort/Cohen treatment, raid her house in the middle of the night and take everything. I’m certain they could find plenty.

I would also like to see investigated her social activities after the purported incident, from age 15 to college graduation.

She claimed her studies suffered. Could just as well be from partying and drinking as bad memories.

Because in a real court she’d actually be really cross-examined and her story would completely crumble and be charged for perjury.

Of course she’s not, because she doesn’t want to be charged with filing a false police report. It’s the same reason she never filed one at the time, because it never happened.
