Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, the women who accuses Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault during their days as high school students will testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee next week. This is according to an email sent by her legal team where they specify that Dr. Ford will provide first-hand account of what exactly happened with Judge Kavanaugh.
Via Mediaite:
“Although many aspects of the proposal you provided via email, on September 21, 2018, at 2:33 pm, are fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee’s promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations, and we are disappointed with the leaks and the bullying that have tainted the process, we are hopeful that we can reach agreement on details. Can we set up a time for later this afternoon to continue our negotiations?”
Ford’s decision comes on the heals of Committee chair Chuck Grassley granting the Professor and her legal team an extension to decide whether or not to testify. The original arbitrary deadline to make the decision was 10 pm Friday night.
Judge Kavanaugh I just granted another extension to Dr Ford to decide if she wants to proceed w the statement she made last week to testify to the senate She shld decide so we can move on I want to hear her. I hope u understand. It’s not my normal approach to b indecisive
