Brett Kavanaugh: third woman accuses Supreme Court nominee of sexual misconduct

A third woman has come forward to accuse President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court pick, Brett Kavanaugh, of sexual misconduct, according to a statement published on Wednesday by her lawyer Michael Avenatti.

Avenatti tweeted a declaration made in the name of Julie Swetnick, a resident of Washington, DC, which said she had met Kavanaugh and his school friend Mark Judge in the early 1980s and attended the same parties.

The declaration said she had “observed Brett Kavanaugh drink excessively at these parties and engage in abusive and physically aggressive behavior towards girls, including pressing girls against him without their consent, ‘grinding’ against girls and attempting to remove or shift girls clothing to expose private body parts."

Swetnick said she was at parties where Kavanaugh, and his close friend at the time, Mark Judge, were involved in situations that resulted in women being gang raped.
