Judge 'K' appeared to have thrust his genitals in her face at a drunken party during their freshman

The New Yorker magazine reported on Sunday evening that a 53-year-old woman, Deborah Ramirez, who attended university with Kavanaugh, has alleged that the judge appeared to have thrust his genitals in her face at a drunken party during their freshman year in 1983-4 academic calendar. She said she clearly remembers the judge, then a teenager, pulling up his pants after a penis was thrust in her face during a drinking game. She also accused Kavanaugh of laughing at her in the aftermath and has said the FBI should investigate the incident.

I figured there were more. It takes a lot of courage to come forward. Good for her!

This should probably be titled "Judge Kavanaugh..." because it could also reference Mike Judge, the alleged witness to Kavanaugh's assault on Ford.

He had to know this would all come out. Actually, to be fair, the way Republicans were pushing this thru, but for Ford, it probably would not have come out. And the Republicans are pretty power drunk right now.

This pervert would be a Supreme Court Justice. How we have fallen as a country.

It is done for self-pleasure at the expense of another, regardless of the consequences to the victim. It is a messed up mentality!

Ol' Mushroom Dick and the people who surround him are in a whole other league of assholes. If I would've done a fraction of what these pricks have done. I would've been embarrassed out of the room. Hell the whole college even. I used to drink my ass off. But as bad as it got I knew there was a line that I could never cross.

I understand your comment about the league of assholes these folks are in. That is the power and control behavior. It is very dangerous.

1 out of 4 women will be sexually assaulted by a man - many are their own family members. Sexual harassment of all flavors happens everyday across America. Women live with this daily and try to do good work while being derailed.

The Ramirez case corroborates personality and tendencies to support Blasey Ford allegation but honestly does not seem as threatening or vicious. The drunken college parties in the 80s were a bit of free for all.

But the gang rape hints from Avenatti are a far more serious allegation. Rohypnol was just starting to be a new major fear for young women.
