Kavanaugh denies Jane Doe rape charge

An anonymous woman accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of repeatedly raping her while they were both teenagers, it emerged Monday.

Kavanaugh, she says, lifted her sweater and bra and digitally penetrated her, and then violently raped her 'several times' along with a friend who followed suit – before striking her and saying no one would believe her if she talked publicly about it.

'Be a good girl,' she claims Kavanaugh told her.

It's the third such claim – and by far the most aggressive one – to reach the Senate Judiciary Committee without a name attached, and without citing the place or time of an allegation.

She can remain annonymous and still get her allegation verified.

The other claims centered around Kavanaugh's drinking (acknowledged love of beer) and peer pressure, wanting to fit in and be one of the crowd, from friends he hung around with.

C'mon Brett! She wants it Brett! Do it Brett!

How could an entitled young man say no? All his friends were doing it. It was no big deal to him at the time.
