Rachel Mitchell, who'll question Ford & Kavanaugh, played a role in this 2011 miscarriage of justice

I did a quick search for her name on Twitter after Rachel Maddow mentioned the WP story tonight saying Mitchell is the attorney who's been chosen to speak on behalf of the chickenshit male GOPers on Thursday.

Immediately found a tweet about her with a link to a Phoenix New Times article.

3. Rather drawn out article

What’d she do?
Get him reduced sentence
For being a pedophile?

4. THIS is even worse

She worked 25 years in Marciopa County along side Sheriff Butthead tRumps buddy.
According to Randi Rhodes:
Maricopa County has a backlog of over 4,000 untested RAPE KITS endthebacklog.org/arizona The law was changed in 2017 requiring rape kits to be tested. Prior to the 2017 law, it was up to the discretion of investigators Rachel Mitchell has been in her position for over 25 years.

5. Rachel Mitchell reduced sentence by questioning whether the victim could properly remember his age

which he stated was 14/15.

Mitchell will question whether all these women (and their corroborators) are remembering anything with any degree of accuracy due to how long ago it took place.

The entire pattern needs to be BROUGHT REPEATEDLY to America's geriatric memory:

1) Alcohol-fueled sexual abuse of women.
2) Kavenaugh's pal refusing to testify.
3) The refusal to be investigated by the FBI and take polygraph tests (by both Kav and Judge).
4) The Republicans WITHHOLDING 100k EMAILS.
5) Kav lying about his USE OF STOLEN EMAILS in the 2000s (many under oath).
6) Several rulings as a judge showing both a lack of logic and judgement.
7) Kavenaugh's support of UNCONSTITUTIONAL decisions regarding labor laws and torture, etc.

There's already enough to sink this candidate, but the negatives ALSO put into doubt any denials regarding sexual assault. That is, the sheer numbers of testimonies against him are given further weight by the superior integrity of Ford et al relative to this lying Republican tool.

PLEASE dear Senators, reference some of the above in your cross examinations. Don't make the mistake of forgetting the abundance of evidence already unearthed. Bring crib notes if you have to, but please do your jobs and save our country from this atrocious and sleezy and women-hating "good ol' boy."

And give all the Republicans on the judicial committee hell for covering up his evil. Stop saying "with all due respect." These people are all traitors. They want Kavanaugh in the Supreme Court to support Trump, turn the country into a corrupt and permanent Republican shithole, and hide THEIR FINANCIAL TIES TO THE RUSSIAN MAFIA.

Got it?
