Apparently Brett Kavanaughs lawyer doesnt feel that standard applies to her clients third accuser.
After Michael Avenatti revealed new allegations against Kavanaugh from his client, Julie Swetnick, who claims the judge was present at parties where young teenage girls were gang-raped, Kavanaughs attorney Beth Wilkinson went on CNN to cast doubt on the latest accusers credibility.
When you say you went to ten parties like that and you kept going to those parties even though that was happening and you saw that supposedly happen to other girls? Wilkinson asked.
They're going all in on blaming the victims. Disgusting.

Think about it. How many teenagers would be willing to accuse the son of a prosecutor or judge of rape? A rich white boy whose mother, or certainly friends of his mother, might be the person charged with prosecuting the case?
Talk about the deck being stacked against you.
