Kavanaugh’s ex-classmate tells senators he won't testify
The Hill ^ | 09/18/18 | Michael Burke

The former classmate of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, who was said to have been in the room when Kavanaugh allegedly sexually assaulted a woman decades ago, has told senators he will not testify at next week's hearing.

Mark Judge wrote in a brief letter to Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) that he "did not ask to be involved in this matter nor did anyone ask me to be involved."

"In fact, I have no memory of this alleged incident," he wrote.

Christine Blasey Ford has said that Judge was in the room at a high school party in the 1980s when Kavanaugh held her down on a bed and tried to remove her clothing. According to Ford, Judge pulled Kavanaugh off of her while he was attempting to take off her swimsuit.

Senate Democrats earlier Tuesday called on Judge to testify at the hearing scheduled for Monday.

My guess is Ford is being paid big bucks for her fraudulent accusation. Someone should look at her bank account...

There are plenty of crazy leftists out there more than willing to do or say anything to hurt Trump or people associated with him. Money may not even be an issue... they feel its their "duty".

If she falsely testifies that Judge assaulted her, she may have a serious problem with a civil lawsuit for defamation.

I never heard that they won’t vote unless she testifies. If she REFUSES to testify, I would think that would negate her accusations and therefore make it mute. The result SHOULD be their vote would be based on everything else excluding her accusation. Of course, that it just logical which Senators are not.

Before this is over, Corrie Booker will be calling Ford Spartacus.

She says that she "couldn't" scream.

OTOH...she did get out of the bedroom and thagt's the end of her "story". But surely someone must have seen her leaving/noticed that she was no longer there. And HOW did she get home?

There weren't any cell phones in 1982.

At the age of 15, she couldn't drive.

Who goes to a party wearing a bathing suit under one's clothes and not bringing underwear for later and where were her house keys?

Did her parents not notice anything when she did get home?

Had she been drinking?

So many questions that she has NO answers for!

“Ford says that she never told anyone”

Teenage girls talk, and talk, and talk.

“Rumors of Harvey Weinstein’s ‘casting couch’ practices circulated in Hollywood for years, and entertainment figures at times alluded to them....tales of his trying to seduce every young actress in town were infamous.”

Ford says that she never told anyone, but supposedly there were 4 boys there and 2 other girls.

It beggers belief that a teenage girl would not tell her girlfriends about an overly aggressive boy immediately after the event, even if they weren't best friends for ever. Every woman knows that as well as men with sisters. Word of such gets spread very quickly on the girl-telegraph...phones would have been buzzing all week end..." Did you hear what happened to..." Her shrink must have been raised in a alt-feminazi cave to to not question the account.

He knows that the Left are going to ruin his life. He’s probably already getting threats and offers of bribes and the poor guy just wants to be left alone.

And if the Pubbies allow that to happen, they deserve the fate of the Whigs.

I wonder if Gorsuch, who was two years behind Kavanaugh at Georgetown Prep, remembers anything about this wench, or her family....

Let me add, because I believe she was a few years younger than Kavanaugh as well.

You’re right.

Another point—the kind of violent behavior the accuser describes would come with a history of violence. The assailant would have perpetrated other acts of violence both prior and subsequent to this act.

It did not happen.

the guy is being set up for a “perjury before Congress” charge. the Demon Rats are trying to paint anyone remotely related to Brett as a liar and a demon.

He has made a statement that it never ever ever happened.

Good enough for me.

Still waiting for Keith Ellison to be called before a Democrat committee.

She's weird, so who knows, but I find it more than "strange" that she never told anyone until 2012.

You'd also think that the others, there, would have talked about her strange behavior.

Mark Judge is a good man - he can’t testify to something he has no recollection of.

But Christine Ford can? Let’s stop right here. That’s all we need to know.

I’ll second that!
