WASHINGTON (AP) — A longtime friend of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh says he has “no memory” of a decades-old sexual assault that a woman is accusing Kavanaugh of committing.
In a statement given through his lawyer, Kavanaugh friend Mark Judge also says he “never saw” the federal judge “act in the manner” alleged by California psychologist Christine Blasey Ford.
In a letter released Tuesday by the Senate Judiciary Committee, Judge says he has “no more information to offer the Committee and I do not wish to speak publicly regarding the incidents described in Dr. Ford’s letter.”
Ford told The Washington Post that she was sexually attacked by Kavanaugh at a party in the early 1980s and escaped after Judge jumped on them. Kavanaugh has denied the allegation.
