Tidbits from the New Yorker article

https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/senate-democrats-investigate-a-new-allegation-of-sexual-misconduct-from-the-supreme-court-nominee-brett-kavanaughs-college-years-deborah-ramirez



“We were sitting in a circle,” she said. “People would pick who drank.” Ramirez was chosen repeatedly, she said, and quickly became inebriated.





Why did Kavanaugh and his associates keep picking Ms. Ramirez ? One can infer from that statement the participants wanted to get Ms. Ramirez drunk.

Also, there is this tidbit that suggests others thought she was a mark:


He described Ramirez as a vulnerable outsider. “Is it believable that she was alone with a wolfy group of guys who thought it was funny to sexually torment a girl like Debbie?


It is not reasonable to infer that Kavanaugh and his associates enticed her to play a drinking game to get her drunk and sexually degrade her ?

The New Yorker article suggests that's exactly what he did and that is precisely what Michael Avenatti says he has evidence of.
