b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 1 Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) said Tuesday that one of the women accusing
Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct should be
referred to the FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) for sending what he said
was a false affidavit.
In her sworn affidavit, Julie Swetnick, the third woman to accuse Kavanaugh
of sexual misconduct, said that she "witnessed efforts by...Kavanaugh...to
cause girls to become inebriated and disoriented so they could then be ‘
gang raped’ in a side room."
Swetnick appeared to couch her claims during a Monday interview with NBC
News's Kate Snow.
"I saw him [Kavanaugh] giving red solo cups to quite a few girls during that
time frame, and there was grain punch at those parties," she said. "I don't
know what he did, but I saw him by them."
"I would not take one of those glasses from...Brett Kavanaugh," Swetnick
added, reiterating her claim that she saw Kavanaugh act aggressively towards
women while inebriated.
She also stated, as she had in her affidavit, that she believed Kavanaugh
may have been involved in gang-raping girls at the house parties they both
attended and that Kavanaugh was present at the party where Swetnick herself
was gang-raped.
"Until what happened to me happened to me, I didn't put two and two together
," she said Monday. "I would see boys, standing outside of rooms,
congregated together, sort of like a gauntlet and I didn't know what was
occurring, but I would see them laughing."
Snow said that Swetnick provided four names of people who could confirm her
description of the house parties in the 1980s.
Of the four, two did not respond, one said they did not recall Swetnick, and
NBC found that the fourth was deceased.
Donald Trump Jr. and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) sharply criticized Swetnick
after the interview.
Hatch mocked Democrats for calling Swetnick's allegation credible, given NBC
's inability to find someone to corroborate it. | c******2 发帖数: 4019 | |
