The woman who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct is speaking out for the first time, telling The Washington Post Sunday that Kavanaugh assaulted her in a Maryland house in the early 1980s.
California professor Christine Blasey Ford said that Kavanaugh and friend were both “stumbling drunk” when Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed. When she tried to scream, she said, Kavanaugh covered her mouth with his hand.
“I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” Ford, now a 51-year-old research psychologist in northern California, told the Post. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.”
