Ford;s Friend Leland Keyser Reaffirms That She 'Does Not Know Mr. Kavanaugh' During FBI Interview
IJR ^ | 10/2/2018 3:00 p.m. | Madison Dibble

The FBI has already begun its supplemental investigation into the allegations of sexual assault against Judge Brett Kavanaugh, including an interview with Leland Keyser.

Keyser was a friend of Kavanaugh's original accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. Dr. Ford claimed that she attended a party with Keyser and a few boys, including Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge, where the alleged attack took place.

Although Dr. Ford testified that Keyser attended the party, Keyser stated in an email to the Senate Judiciary Committee that she does not remember any party like the one described.

As part of the deal struck by Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) and others, the FBI was called by President Donald Trump to further investigate the claims made by Ford and others. The investigation is set to include interviews of any alleged witnesses.

In the new investigation, the FBI sat down with Keyser and her attorneys to further discuss the allegations.

According to the Washington Times, Keyser's attorney stated that she issued the exact same statement to the FBI that she had emailed to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

"Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford," Keyser's attorney Howard J. Walsh III said.

Walsh also explained that Keyser cooperated fully with the investigation, but that she did not know of any event that occurred as Ford explained.

"Ms. Keyser asked that I communicate to the Committee her willingness to cooperate fully with the FBI's supplemental investigation of Dr. Christine Ford's allegations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh. However, as my client has already made clear, she does not know Judge Kavanaugh and has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford."

During her testimony, Ford said that Keyser's "health challenges" were the reason why she may not recall the event. Watch:

"Leland has significant health challenges, and I'm happy that she's focusing on herself and getting the health treatment that she needs, and she let me know that she needed her lawyer to take care of this for her, and she texted me right afterward with an apology and good wishes, and et cetera, So I'm glad that she's taking care of herself. I don't expect that P.J. and Leland would remember this evening. It was a very unremarkable party. It was not one of their more notorious parties, because nothing remarkable happened to them that evening. They were downstairs."

Either way, it does not look as though the FBI gathered anything new from Keyser's perspective because she doesn't remember an event like the one explained by Dr. Ford.

Doesn’t remember any party like that doesn’t know Kavanaugh.
Not a recovered memory but rather a real memory.

My gut feeling that nothing whatsoever, as described, ever happened to Ford is now solid.
She wasn’t groped by Kavanaugh or anyone else.

It’s a crime to lie to Congress.

But S.O.P. to lie in Congress.

I posted this a while back:

Since Dr. Ford accuses her longtime friend and fellow woman Leland Keyser of “having health issues” and therefore can’t remember being at the party, I was really curious as to what those health issues were - must be pretty serious. She retired as coach from Georgetown in 2005 due to ongoing health issues.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In an interview with Blue Ocean Global Wealth in 2015, John Keyser revealed that he’s been acting as a caregiver for his wife:

My wife had become a bit disabled and I retired to become a caregiver and soccer mom for the kids.

Supposedly, she posted a picture to her facebook account of her neck/spine area .... looks pretty bad. I can see why she doesn’t want to get drawn into the Kavanaugh/Ford mess.

It would be better for Ford to find the party house.

Then the FBI could ask Leland if she knew the house or a teenager who lived in the house in the early 1980’s.

I thought it was CB Ford that was once married to Bob Beckel, not Ford’s best friend...

According to Rush this is Bob Beckel’s (formerly of Fox) ex wife.

When they were getting divorced he stole her checkbook and wrote a cbeck to a hooker that was younger than his daughter.
= = =

“EX” wife - - - Minnesota now says “X” is self-declared no-gender.

What a waste of time and taxpayer dollars. I think Flake should be sent the bill.

Absolutely !

At this point I think this ford nut should be waterboarded to get her to admit the entire farcical tale is made up.

So you’re insinuating because of her serious back issues she would lie so as “not to get involved”?

Dr Ford is a real piece of work. She pulls in a knowingly sick friend over issues she can’t even remember. With friends like that....

The only documents unseen are not those from his work as a judge, but rather from his work in the White House. Records of White House deliberations are subject to long-established Executive Privilege.

I am insinuating nothing ... but Ford certainly did:

Mitchell: Why did everyone you named as witness, including your best female friend Leland Keyser, say she had no memory of anything you alleged.

Ford: She has health issues and needs to take care of herself.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

IMO, Ford is a liar so I was curious as to whether or not she was lying about Keyser’s health issues and I went looking to see what they might be.

Most likely the same reason they will not interview Ford.

Yes she did....but this was YOUR statement and we’ll let the room decide, but it certainly comes across to me as though that was what you were intimating.
