    I don’t use Twitter

    But I suspect it is irrelevant

    Would you let a client agree to the terms Ford is demanding?

    No representation?
    Not be able to face accuser?
    Have to testify before the accuser does?

    As a lawyer what is your opinion of those requests?

    But I will only report if the person is a Supreme Court nominee by a republican president

    What is it about Supreme Picrt nominations that lead these traumatized women to finally find the strength?

    Maybe there should be a PSA telling women that they should report now because some day this guy may be nominated to the Supreme Court by a Republican

    Thanks.

    One thing I can tell you with categorical certainty. The mouth-breathers who are saying they don't understand why a 15 year old teenage girl would not report an attempted rape by a male classmate, are guys that do not have girlfriends or daughters, and probably have very limited interactions and relationships with women in general.

    Maybe Grind should create a #MeToo sub forum for JPP split tales to share their 40 year old stories

    Who would my client be in this hypothetical, Ford?

    It would actually be very unusual for a girl to report it in such a situation.

    Gee maybe it has something to do with the idea of them being in a position of power, able to influence the lives of millions of Americans.

    It's really not hard to understand why the idea of someone who assaulted you (if true) sitting on the Supreme Court would be the impetus for finally reporting.

    This is very basic stuff. It's not the grand mystery you guys are making it out to be. And really, you have to tell some on your side - including Trump - that reporting right away is an extremely difficult thing to do and that not doing so is actually fairly common.

    Any situation Jarod. Not just this one. Stop being cute. Just answer the question. You are dodging the question.

    I know why you are dodging. You don’t want to be on record saying what Ford is demanding is FUCKED UP. It proves you are more beholden to your ideology than the law.

    Thanks for confirming

    He can do that on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals. Why didn’t she stop him then?
