EXCLUSIVE: Woman Who Was High School Friend of Kavanaughs Calls Claim of Sexual Assault Absolutely Fishy
A friend who graduated high school the same year as Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh says she could not picture him in the situation described by the woman who accuses him of sexually assaulting her when they were teens.
The allegation is absolutely fishy, Lisa Molina Heaps told The Daily Signal.
Its interesting, even in those small social circles in Washington, D.C., private boys and girls schools, there were certain people who had reputations and people that had crazy reputations, people that had reputations for being partiers, things like that. He did not, Heaps, 53, said Wednesday of Kavanaugh in a phone interview.
Heaps said she graduated from the all-girls Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School in 1983, the same year Kavanaugh graduated from the all-boys Georgetown Preparatory School.
He had a reputation of being a responsible, kind, respectful person, the kind of person you would probably want to date, Heaps said.
Heaps is one of 65 women who knew Kavanaugh when he attended Georgetown Prep and signed a letter published Sept. 14 that vouches for the character of the Supreme Court nominee.
We all partied a little bit, Heaps told The Daily Signal, but the allegation of sexual assault is absolutely fishy.
Another signer of the letter, Missy Carr, said in an interview Tuesday with The Daily Signal that she knew Kavanaugh at the time, and could not imagine him in the scenario that is being described even under the influence of alcohol.
Christine Blasey Ford, Kavanaughs accuser, now a 51-year-old research psychologist in Northern California, told The Washington Post that Kavanaugh held her down, groped her, and tried to remove her clothes in a bedroom during a summer party in the early 1980s in Montgomery County, Maryland.
Ford said Mark Judge, a classmate of Kavanaughs, was present during the alleged assault at a house party attended by a small group of teens, and that both Judge and Kavanaugh were drunk at the time.
Ford reportedly wrote a confidential letter in July describing the incident and sent it via Rep. Anna G. Eshoo, D-Calif., to Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who is on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
The last-minute accusation postponed the committees scheduled vote Thursday on Kavanaughs nomination to the Supreme Court, which then would go to the Senate floor.
Ford revealed her identity for the article published Sunday by The Washington Post.
Kavanaugh, 53, has twice issued absolute denials of ever doing such a thing, the second time Monday after Fords name came out.
Judge also has said the incident didnt happen.
Ford is calling for an FBI investigation of her accusation before appearing before the Judiciary Committee, despite its invitation to her to testify.
Kavanaugh, a federal appeals court judge since 2006, was expected to testify Monday before the committee.
It is not right that at the 11th hour, this is brought forward. It is absolutely a last-ditch effort by people who dont want him nominated to derail his nomination, Heaps said. Absolutely, its obvious to me. And they can say all that they want that it wasnt, but its clear to most people.
Speaking of Fords accusation, Feinstein told reporters Wednesday that she cant say everything is truthful, I dont know.
Heaps said she signed the letter with her 64 peers who knew Kavanaugh when he attended Georgetown Prep because she believes in his character. She said:
What made me sign it is, I have been following the proceedings because, well, I follow this stuff anyway, but more so because I knew Judge Kavanaugh, Brett, in high school. And I was sad to see how he was being treated, even before this [accusation] came out. The process has become so politicized, truly it saddens me that people get treated the way that they get treated.
When this accusation came out, we rallied around him because we felt that this was not something that could be true of this person, of Brett. It was out of character.
She never knew Ford, Heaps said, but her opinion of Kavanaugh has not changed.
Everyone wants to know, Do you still support him
even after Dr. Ford reveals her name? and the answer is yes, Heaps said.
LOL, that’s where I heard it. Not so politely though.
Fishy; as in corrupt Democrat liar.
So any woman can make a decades old, unproven claim about a Supreme Court nominee and put the nomination on hold? Its a terrible way to run a government. Its complete insanity.
LOL
Almost perfect ‘toon of the situation.
It would be perfect with ABCNBCCBSCNNMSNBC signage on the mic.
Our son is a musician too. Hes not a player. And he gets hit on by men and women.
I read Simon Wiesenthals The Sunflower about his hearing the confession of a dying Nazi soldier and how he turned around and walked out of the room after the man was finished.
Christians say God loves and forgives everyone and he was wrong not to have extended forgiveness. But the Jewish view maintains Gods power is not absolute. He can only forgive us for the sins we commit against Him. But people we have wronged, we must ask them to forgive us.
And that brings us to today. Would I be willing to forgive someone who tried to destroy my reputation? I have a good heart but I dont see how they could repair the damage.
Maybe some things are beyond complete forgiveness.
I heard the joke back in the 70’s. good times.
I had a 52 Ford when in high school that smelled fishy
Sort of affirms my opinion of our very own fall of Rome. Make no mistake. Kavanaugh is the spawn of the ruling class.
Has anyone come forward knowing or even having dated Ford? What do they say? It is interesting and telling that no one has.
Its true. I understand now. I cant imagine how much anger a situation like this can cause a person to feel. Trump has been dealing with so many lies as well. Forgiveness is possible by the grace of God. When hes ready. It seems like he is surrounded by good and decent people. I pray thats somewhat of a sanctuary for him.
Maybe they are embarrassed and scared to come forward. They could be next.
Man what are you trying to do to us here?!?!
Translation: It may not be the truth but its what we would like to be the truth.
<< Fishy? Smelt like the outhouse door on a tuna boat.
I know a great joke with that as the punchline.....not for mixed company tho.>>
The one I remember with that punch line involved a blind man wandering around in the woods.
Who would admit to that indiscretion?
Do you tar everyone who is of a different social strata, from you?
What about all of the kids who have EVER gone to any Elite private school; are they all to be condemned as well? Do somehow manage to keep records of what they ever did/do in a special file?
Do you know any such people...personally?
My joke was this amazing guy they hired for the Lumbermans convention.....could tell the type of wood (Oak, Walnut, Birch etc etc) only by the smell.
That was my first reaction, too, but we're predisposed to think that way, so I can't say it's what she was actually thinking.
I think Blasey had a bad experience with somebody from the school.
It may not have been as horrible as she says now, and she may not even dislike the guy.
But she does dislike Trump and associates Kavanaugh with Trump, so she embellishes the story and directs her anger at Kavanaugh.
Just my theory, though.
I was a defense electronics warfare contractor in the 80’s & 90’s. I was in the region and Crystal City every week during those years.
