    Default RAMIREZ ASSAULT CORROBORATED by Yale students/friends/HER MOTHER--7 in all + FBI

    If we are going to post dueling headlines, then we will post dueling headlines! DID MS. RAMERIZ NOT RECALL THE INCIDENT OR DID NOT RECALL THE INCIDENT--IN PUBLIC--BECAUSE SHE WAS NEVER CALLED TO TESTIFY? Is it an interpretation or a 'technicality'? FBI AGENTS did interview her but did not use/include her story--(or it was excluded by others). At least 2 FBI agents found her 'credible'. So did a slew of other people, many who called the FBI on their own who were not called back.

    Her friends recalled it. Her mother recalled it. There was 'discussion among students' who also recalled it! 30 years later, they still recalled it and tried to RECALL IT to the FBI!


    During their 10-month investigation, Pogrebin and Kelly wrote in the essay, although they found Ford’s allegations to be credible, Ramirez’s story was more fully corroborated.



    FROM THE NEW HAVEN REGISTER....

    NYT reveals Kavanaugh allegation that supported Deborah Ramirez’s claims

    Deborah Ramirez’s claims against Brett Kavanaugh about an incident that happened while the two were at Yale University
    has been echoed in a previously unreported allegation about Kavanaugh shared by another classmate.
    New York Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly have written a book regarding the allegations against the current Supreme Court justice, titled “The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation.” An essay from the book was published by the Times on Saturday.

    Ramirez, who grew up in Shelton, claimed Kavanugh pulled down his pants and thrust his penis at her at a party during her freshman year, according to the Times. When that happened, the Times reported, Ramirez tried to swat him away and inadvertently touched his penis.

    The essay also mentions the allegations brought against Kavanaugh by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who went to a Washington-area high school near his. During their 10-month investigation, Pogrebin and Kelly wrote in the essay, although they found Ford’s allegations to be credible, Ramirez’s story was more fully corroborated.

    During his Senate testimony, Kavanaught said if the incident described by Ramirez happened, it would’ve been the talk of the campus. Pogrebin and Kelly said their investigation suggested it had been.

    “At least seven people, including Ms. Ramirez’s mother, heard about the Yale incident long before Mr. Kavanaugh was a federal judge,” the essay states. “Two of those people were classmates who learned of it just days after the party occurred, suggesting that it was discussed among students at the time.”

    Poerebin and Kelly said they also uncovered a previously unreported story about Kavanaugh from his freshman year that “echoes Ms. Ramirez’s allegation.”

    According to the essay, a classmate named Max Stier saw Kavanaugh with his pants down at a different drunken dorm party where friends pushed his penis into the hand of a female student. He alleged that he told senators and the FBI, but the FBI never investigated the claim. Although the NYT reporters said they did not communicate directly with Stier, they spoke with two officials who have communicated with him to corroborate the claim.

    The reporters said in the essay that Kavanaugh did not speak to them because “we could not agree on terms for an interview.” Still, the reporters made it clear that Kavanaugh has denied the allegations brought against him by Ford and Ramirez. The reporters said he declined to answer questions about Stier’s claims.

    Ramirez was never asked to testify at Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. “Her efforts to backstop her recollections with friends would later be cited as evidence that her memory was unreliable or that she was trying to construct a story rather than confirm one,” the essay states.

    Ramirez’s legal team apparently gave the FBI a list of at least 25 people who might have had corroborating evidence for her allegations. But, despite many of those potential witnesses trying to reach the FBI on their own, none of them were interviewed.

    According to the essay, two FBI agents interview Ramirez and told her they found her to be “credible.”

    During her time at Yale, Ramirez told the reporters, she felt she never properly fit in with her classmates. But after her allegations against Kavanaugh were brought to light, the Yale community’ support for her came rushing in.

    More than 3,000 Yale women signed an open letter to her, praising her courage for coming forward with her allegations. Two days latter, more than 1,500 Yale men issued a similar letter.

    Kavanaugh was confirmed as a Supreme Court justice on Oct. 6, 2018. The Senate confirmation vote was 50-48.

    "An editor at The New York Times was doing damage control on Monday by attempting to answer questions from readers regarding the paper's controversial report on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

    Late Sunday, The New York Times walked back an explosive report about a resurfaced allegation of sexual assault by Kavanaugh from his college days. The piece by Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly, adapted from their forthcoming book, alleged there was corroboration of an incident in which Kavanaugh, as a college student at Yale, exposed himself to a female classmate at a party.

    However, The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway -- who reviewed an advance copy of the book – flagged an omission and the paper eventually revised the controversial story after being lampooned on social media over the gaffe.

    The update included the significant detail that several friends of the alleged victim said she did not recall the purported sexual assault. The newspaper also stated for the first time that the alleged victim refused to be interviewed, and has made no other comment about the episode."

    Straight up lies. Ramirez has no recollection of any such event, and made no such claims. Stop embarrassing yourself.

    Two New York Times reporters uncovered new details about the Kavanaugh allegations

    Ramirez was the second woman to make a public allegation of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh, coming forward last September, several days after Ford told her story to the Washington Post. At the time, Ramirez told Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer of the New Yorker that at a party during the 1983-84 school year, Kavanaugh thrust his penis in her face. “I was embarrassed and ashamed and humiliated,” she said.

    Ramirez’s allegation got significantly less public attention than Ford’s account. Only Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and she became the focus of attacks from the right (including President Trump, who mocked her at a rally), as well as a symbol of resistance for many survivors of sexual misconduct and supporters of the #MeToo movement. (A third woman, Julie Swetnick, said she saw Kavanaugh at parties where women were raped but did not report seeing Kavanaugh actually assault someone.)
    “I am here today not because I want to be,” Ford said in her opening testimony before the committee. “I am terrified.”
    However, she said, “my motivation in coming forward was to provide the facts about how Mr. Kavanaugh’s actions have damaged my life, so that you can take that into serious consideration as you make your decision about how to proceed.”

    Asked how certain she was that Kavanaugh had assaulted her, she replied, “100 percent.”


    Kavanaugh denied the allegations against him and ultimately was confirmed despite them. But on Saturday, Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly brought the allegations back to the forefront of public consciousness with new details about Ramirez’s account. Their story was published in the New York Times Sunday Review, part of the Times Opinion section. It was adapted from their book, The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation, to be published on Tuesday.

    Last year, Kavanaugh argued that if what Ramirez described had really happened, it would have been “the talk of campus.” In fact, Pogrebin and Kelly write, “our reporting suggests that it was.”

    Specifically, the reporters spoke with at least seven people who had heard about the allegation long before Ramirez went public with it, including two people who heard about it just days after the party took place.

    Meanwhile, another Yale alum, Max Stier, says he witnessed Kavanaugh with his pants down at a different party, with friends pushing his penis into the hand of a different female classmate, Pogrebin and Kelly report. The female classmate did not speak to the Times and friends say she does not recall the incident, the reporters clarified after the story was first published.

    Still, the new details bolster Ramirez’s allegation and suggest a possible pattern of behavior for Kavanaugh.

    The new reporting has led to questions around the FBI investigation, calls for Kavanaugh’s impeachment, and criticism of the Times

    The new details made public by Pogrebin and Kelly have led to questions about how Ramirez’s allegations were investigated last year. In the wake of Ford’s testimony, the FBI performed an investigation into both women’s allegations. The investigation was highly limited in scope; as Vox’s German Lopez noted last year, the terms of the inquiry were set by the White House and investigators declined to interview several people Senate Democrats wanted to hear from.
    Eventually, Republicans announced that the investigation had produced no corroborating evidence supporting Ford’s and Ramirez’s allegations, and the FBI inquiry may ultimately have served less to get at the truth than to provide cover for swing Republicans, including Sens. Jeff Flake of Arizona and Susan Collins of Maine, to vote to confirm Kavanaugh.
    But Pogrebin and Kelly’s reporting shows how limited the investigation really was. The reporters note that although Ramirez gave the FBI a list of at least 25 people who could potentially corroborate her account, the bureau interviewed none of them.
    Two agents interviewed her but told her, “We have to wait to get authorization to do anything else,” her lawyer Bill Pittard told the Times.It was almost a little apologetic,” he said.

    Meanwhile, the FBI did not investigate Stier’s account,though he reached out to both the bureau and senators about it.

    The fact that two reporters were apparently able to turn up more information about Ramirez’s allegation than the FBI has led to calls for a new investigation into the allegations. It’s also led to calls for Kavanaugh’s impeachment by several Democratic presidential candidates, including Sens. Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro.

    Her friends recalled it. Her mother recalled it. There was 'discussion among students' who also recalled it! 30 years later, they still recalled it and tried to RECALL IT to the FBI!


    During their 10-month investigation, Pogrebin and Kelly wrote in the essay, although they found Ford’s allegations to be credible, Ramirez’s story was more fully corroborated.



    FROM THE NEW HAVEN REGISTER....

    NYT reveals Kavanaugh allegation that supported Deborah Ramirez’s claims

    Deborah Ramirez’s claims against Brett Kavanaugh about an incident that happened while the two were at Yale University
    has been echoed in a previously unreported allegation about Kavanaugh shared by another classmate.
    New York Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly have written a book regarding the allegations against the current Supreme Court justice, titled “The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation.” An essay from the book was published by the Times on Saturday.

    Ramirez, who grew up in Shelton, claimed Kavanugh pulled down his pants and thrust his penis at her at a party during her freshman year, according to the Times. When that happened, the Times reported, Ramirez tried to swat him away and inadvertently touched his penis.

    The essay also mentions the allegations brought against Kavanaugh by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who went to a Washington-area high school near his. During their 10-month investigation, Pogrebin and Kelly wrote in the essay, although they found Ford’s allegations to be credible, Ramirez’s story was more fully corroborated.

    During his Senate testimony, Kavanaught said if the incident described by Ramirez happened, it would’ve been the talk of the campus. Pogrebin and Kelly said their investigation suggested it had been.

    “At least seven people, including Ms. Ramirez’s mother, heard about the Yale incident long before Mr. Kavanaugh was a federal judge,” the essay states. “Two of those people were classmates who learned of it just days after the party occurred, suggesting that it was discussed among students at the time.”

    Poerebin and Kelly said they also uncovered a previously unreported story about Kavanaugh from his freshman year that “echoes Ms. Ramirez’s allegation.”

    According to the essay, a classmate named Max Stier saw Kavanaugh with his pants down at a different drunken dorm party where friends pushed his penis into the hand of a female student. He alleged that he told senators and the FBI, but the FBI never investigated the claim. Although the NYT reporters said they did not communicate directly with Stier, they spoke with two officials who have communicated with him to corroborate the claim.

    The reporters said in the essay that Kavanaugh did not speak to them because “we could not agree on terms for an interview.” Still, the reporters made it clear that Kavanaugh has denied the allegations brought against him by Ford and Ramirez. The reporters said he declined to answer questions about Stier’s claims.

    Ramirez was never asked to testify at Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. “Her efforts to backstop her recollections with friends would later be cited as evidence that her memory was unreliable or that she was trying to construct a story rather than confirm one,” the essay states.

    Ramirez’s legal team apparently gave the FBI a list of at least 25 people who might have had corroborating evidence for her allegations. But, despite many of those potential witnesses trying to reach the FBI on their own, none of them were interviewed.

    According to the essay, two FBI agents interview Ramirez and told her they found her to be “credible.”

    During her time at Yale, Ramirez told the reporters, she felt she never properly fit in with her classmates. But after her allegations against Kavanaugh were brought to light, the Yale community’ support for her came rushing in.

    More than 3,000 Yale women signed an open letter to her, praising her courage for coming forward with her allegations. Two days latter, more than 1,500 Yale men issued a similar letter.

    Kavanaugh was confirmed as a Supreme Court justice on Oct. 6, 2018. The Senate confirmation vote was 50-48.

    If you don't know why the NEW HAVEN Register would show an interest, I wouldn't be surprised. But they too are invested in this story;.



    If the worst you can find against Justice Kavanaugh is pranks that happened in college then he must be the right man for the job as clearly he cleaned up his act. What a fucking loser you are.

    Two New York Times reporters uncovered new details about the Kavanaugh allegations

    Ramirez was the second woman to make a public allegation of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh, coming forward last September, several days after Ford told her story to the Washington Post. At the time, Ramirez told Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer of the New Yorker that at a party during the 1983-84 school year, Kavanaugh thrust his penis in her face. “I was embarrassed and ashamed and humiliated,” she said.

    Ramirez’s allegation got significantly less public attention than Ford’s account. Only Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and she became the focus of attacks from the right (including President Trump, who mocked her at a rally), as well as a symbol of resistance for many survivors of sexual misconduct and supporters of the #MeToo movement. (A third woman, Julie Swetnick, said she saw Kavanaugh at parties where women were raped but did not report seeing Kavanaugh actually assault someone.)
    “I am here today not because I want to be,” Ford said in her opening testimony before the committee. “I am terrified.”
    However, she said, “my motivation in coming forward was to provide the facts about how Mr. Kavanaugh’s actions have damaged my life, so that you can take that into serious consideration as you make your decision about how to proceed.”

    Asked how certain she was that Kavanaugh had assaulted her, she replied, “100 percent.”


    Kavanaugh denied the allegations against him and ultimately was confirmed despite them. But on Saturday, Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly brought the allegations back to the forefront of public consciousness with new details about Ramirez’s account. Their story was published in the New York Times Sunday Review, part of the Times Opinion section. It was adapted from their book, The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation, to be published on Tuesday.

    Last year, Kavanaugh argued that if what Ramirez described had really happened, it would have been “the talk of campus.” In fact, Pogrebin and Kelly write, “our reporting suggests that it was.”

    Specifically, the reporters spoke with at least seven people who had heard about the allegation long before Ramirez went public with it, including two people who heard about it just days after the party took place.

    Meanwhile, another Yale alum, Max Stier, says he witnessed Kavanaugh with his pants down at a different party, with friends pushing his penis into the hand of a different female classmate, Pogrebin and Kelly report. The female classmate did not speak to the Times and friends say she does not recall the incident, the reporters clarified after the story was first published.

    Still, the new details bolster Ramirez’s allegation and suggest a possible pattern of behavior for Kavanaugh.

    The new reporting has led to questions around the FBI investigation, calls for Kavanaugh’s impeachment, and criticism of the Times

    The new details made public by Pogrebin and Kelly have led to questions about how Ramirez’s allegations were investigated last year. In the wake of Ford’s testimony, the FBI performed an investigation into both women’s allegations. The investigation was highly limited in scope; as Vox’s German Lopez noted last year, the terms of the inquiry were set by the White House and investigators declined to interview several people Senate Democrats wanted to hear from.
    Eventually, Republicans announced that the investigation had produced no corroborating evidence supporting Ford’s and Ramirez’s allegations, and the FBI inquiry may ultimately have served less to get at the truth than to provide cover for swing Republicans, including Sens. Jeff Flake of Arizona and Susan Collins of Maine, to vote to confirm Kavanaugh.
    But Pogrebin and Kelly’s reporting shows how limited the investigation really was. The reporters note that although Ramirez gave the FBI a list of at least 25 people who could potentially corroborate her account, the bureau interviewed none of them.
    Two agents interviewed her but told her, “We have to wait to get authorization to do anything else,” her lawyer Bill Pittard told the Times.It was almost a little apologetic,” he said.

    Meanwhile, the FBI did not investigate Stier’s account,though he reached out to both the bureau and senators about it.

    The fact that two reporters were apparently able to turn up more information about Ramirez’s allegation than the FBI has led to calls for a new investigation into the allegations. It’s also led to calls for Kavanaugh’s impeachment by several Democratic presidential candidates, including Sens. Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro.
