Kavanaugh hires Washington defense attorney amid sexual assault controversy: Report
The Washington Examiner ^ | 17 Sept 2018 | Gabby Morrongiello

Posted on 09/18/2018 3:33:26 PM PDT by Steely Tom

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh has reportedly hired Washington trial lawyer Beth Wilkinson amid the fallout over a woman alleging he sexually assaulted her while in high school.

The allegation of sexual misconduct emerged late last week, following Kavanaugh's appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. His accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, revealed her identity in the Washington Post over the weekend and has agreed to recount her experience in sworn testimony before the Senate panel if called in the coming days.

Kavanaugh has described Ford's accusation as "categorically false," saying in a statement Monday he did not know who was making the accusation until she came forward over the weekend and has "never done anything like what the accuser describes – to her or to anyone."

this really needs to be brought to a hearing. A lady willing to ruin another man;s life needs to come to the bench and face people who have some questions for her. THIS is Rape in reverse.

Good move.

If Ford should come forward, she can prepare a slander lawsuit on her client’s behalf.

Foghorn Leghorn is always right about these things, son.

Sue her now from the get go for libel and slander, take the offensive.
Proverbs 6:16-19 New International Version (NIV)
16 There are six things the LORD hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.

Sure fits here.

Yes - great strategy using female defense attorney with female accuser.

It is a crying shame the Judge needs to lawyer up to protect his nomination. The professor is a blood red democratic activist and a fraud.

According to Rush, there is a unsubstantiated rumor floating around she sent a dirty accusatory letter to Feinstein about the last SCOTUS appointment. It will be interesting to learn if there is any substance to that and what the accusation is.

You beat me to that. Judge Kavanaugh should IMMEDIATELY file a lawsuit for defamation and slander and get a take no prisoners, Rottweiler lawyer. The Republicans in the US Senate will be too darn soft.

There is NO WAY she can prove this is true. He has ALL history and evidence on his side. If they want to make the case that he got drunk sometimes and so that must mean he got drunk that one time and felt up a high school girl while he was in high school then go for it.
