FULL TITLE: Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford demands 'full investigation' by FBI before testifying, in letter from her lawyers

Christine Blasey Ford, the California professor claiming Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her more than 35 years ago, late Tuesday demanded a "full investigation" by the FBI before she attends any congressional hearing or "interrogation" into her accusations.

In response, Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, who said Ford is still invited to speak to the committee, countered that "nothing the FBI or any other investigator does would have any bearing on what Dr. Ford tells the committee, so there is no reason for any further delay.”

Lisa Banks, one of Ford's lawyers, told CNN that her client "will talk to the committee," but she is not prepared for the hearing on Monday.

She said her client has been faced with threats and she has been figuring out how to protect her family.

"There should be no rush to a hearing," Banks said.

Other top Republicans, including Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, who had said they wanted to hear from Ford before voting on Kavanaugh's confirmation, have indicated they would move forward with a vote if Ford chose not to testify.

What made the boys think she was the kind of girl that could be groped?

I remember what high-school was like.

A 15-year old girl at a drinking party? (the age to buy alcohol was 18 back then)

I am surprised that no Dimm has asked the DOJ to expand the role of Mueller’s witch hunt to included these accusations.

So the FBI gets called when a teenage boy tries to cop a feel? They’re going to be VERY busy.

I might as well turn myself in right now

"There should be no rush to a hearing," Banks said.

She might be needing a couple of extra decades to prepare her testimony.

According to the FBI, they don’t investigate this kind of stuff because there is no apparent federal crime.

If Ford was suddenly concerned in 2012 that Kavanaugh’s appointment to the DC Circuit could lead to a SCOTUS appointment, why didn't she bring forth her claims then and stop him from getting on the DC bench to begin with?

An alleged dry-humping from 36 years ago when you were 15 and the boy was 17 that you don’t remember the year or the place that it allegedly happened?

Her probably reply: "Jeez, there were so many of them! How do you expect me to keep them apart?"

To think, just past weekend the ford woman and her lawyer were demanding a public hearing before the committee before the committee voe. Grassley cancelled Thursdays vote and scheduled the hearing they demanded for a week out as required by committee rules. Now, fords lawyer says it’s too soon, she’s not ready, she needs the FBI as her personal private dicks to investigate and find out where and when the party was. phicle phoney phemales !

They’re like Great Aunt Lucy in the nursing home screaming that there aren’t enough bananas in the pudding when there was no pudding.

But you can't have your pudding if you don't eat your meat!

No action on her accusation should be taken until she makes them under oath with the full weight of perjury consequences.

She is asking the wrong organization to investigate. I believe it is for the reason that they will not investigate. It is a stalling tactic just like the accusation itself.

If the republicans refuse to be played (which I am worried about) they should ignore the demand and immediately vote for confirmation of BK.

That’s why we need an FBI investigation, to find a crime.

That’s how Democrats do it.

These people really believe it is appropriate for the FBI to investigate every teenage make out session.

No detail of your personal life is too petty to be beyond the control of The Almighty State.

.
There is no cause for further investigation, except for Ford, who appears to have committed numerous felonies in the process of making her fragmented claim.

The senate should remand her over to the Federal Marshall.
