Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her, cannot move back to her home due to the volume of death threats she is still receiving, her lawyers told NBC on Sunday.
One of Ford's attorneys, Debra Katz, told NBC's Kasie Hunt that it's going to be "quite some time" before Ford and her family can return home.
"Her family has been through a lot," Katz said. "They are not living at home. It’s going to be quite some time before they’re able to live at home. The threats have been unending. It’s deplorable."
"It’s been very frightening," Katz added.
Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's attorneys tell @kasie that Ford is still not living at home and can't for "quite some time."
She is still receiving "unending" death threats.
— Kasie DC (@KasieDC) October 7, 2018 Ford two weeks ago publicly testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee about her allegation that Kavanaugh pinned her down and tried to take off her clothes, at one point allegedly pressing his hand over her mouth to prevent her from screaming, during a high school party in 1982.
Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court on Saturday after a bruising battle that also involved sexual misconduct allegations from two other women.
Kavanaugh vehemently denied all of the allegations.
Ford's lawyers during the NBC interview denounced the one-week FBI investigation into the women's accusations, saying it was not thorough. The FBI reportedly did not interview Ford or Kavanaugh as part of the probe.
Hunt asked Katz and Ford's other attorney Lisa Banks if they believe Ford was treated better than Anita Hill, the woman who publicly testified in 1991 about her accusation that then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas had sexually harassed her. Ford's allegations and her treatment were frequently compared to Hill's during the confirmation battle.
Hill's hearing was preceded by a three-day FBI investigation.
"With Anita Hill, there was a full FBI investigation before there was ever a hearing," Banks said. "That did not occur here. This process was far worse."
"We thought it was bad back in 1991, and it's even worse today, the political climate and how women are treated." - Dr. Ford's attorney Lisa Banks
— Kasie DC (@KasieDC) October 7, 2018 Banks and Katz said Ford was "horrified" by President Trump's comments about her last week, during which he mocked Ford's testimony in an attempt to undermine her credibility.
"She was upset by it, yes, as any woman would be who’s the victim of sexual assault who was mocked and belittled by anyone, never mind the president of the United States," Banks said.
Many Republican leaders who voted for Kavanaugh's confirmation, such as key swing vote Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), have said they believe Ford was attacked as a teenager but do not believe Kavanaugh was her assailant.
Banks on NBC said Ford "knows" who assaulted her.
"She testified she knew him, he knew her, and she knows exactly who sexually assaulted her on that day," Banks said.
A liar who contributed to the divide of this great Nation, and wasted millions of dollars and hours by spewing defamatory BS to smear a good man and his family, deserves much more than mere threats
What goes around, comes around, you mentally ill tramp
How is she getting death threats if no one knows where she is?
What is her address? Phone #? Email? Facebook? Twitter?
No problemo. Ford can use that 1/2 million go fund me money to relocate.
And once she was reminded, did she fly there or take Greyhound?
She'll have plenty of time to recover during her perjury trial and resulting prison term.
“Unending death threats” but no evidence, again.
I doubt it. Even if she’s not phoning in threats to herself, Palo Alto California is probably the safest space on the planet for her. (Short of Alcatraz Island.)
She better make sure new one has plenty of doors, and no flying needed to get there.
“Can she remember where here home is?”
Best line of the day!
They are still lying.
“One of Ford’s attorneys, Debra Katz, told NBC’s Kasie Hunt that it’s going to be “quite some time” before Ford and her family can return home.”
Good! The longer the better. Payback needs to be a real b!tch!
Maybe. But she may need a lot for a criminal defense team.
Where’s the BS meter?
><
That’s right. If she got any death threats at all, they came from the Left.
Have there been police reports made about these alleged death threats? If not, why not?
Lie on one thing, lie on everything.
She is a liar. This is all for effect.
This *itch needs to be prosecuted, tried and convicted for her crimes - not killed.
THAT would make her a martyr. We all know that. And so does Hillary Clinton - so she should HER, not us.
Well, lets see those threats.
These days it is very difficult to telephone / text / email threats (or anything else) to anyone and not be traced.
And most of the people savvy enough to do those things ‘untracably’ are probably smart enough to not make those threats in the first place.
Even anonymous regular postal mail is not completely untraceable.
I’m sure Soros will just buy her a new house.
><
Yeah, right. He used her and he couldn’t care less about her now.
I know you’re kidding.
A school teacher today put out a request on Twitter for someone to step forward and kill Kavanaugh for the “team.”
Her dumbass husband would be well advised to GTHO
Niedermeyer: Tell me, Mister, what kind of “ man” would marry a slut like her?.
