Mr.SnaPeR Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 The woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault has agreed to testify against him next week. Lawyers for Dr Christine Blasey Ford said she accepted the Senate Judiciary Committee's request to appear before them to be questioned on the alleged attack at a party in 1982. Some reports say she will testify on Wednesday or Thursday. Judge Kavanaugh has repeatedly denied the allegations. The allegations, which emerged in the US media last week, have deferred Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court. The truth about false assault accusations Kavanaugh accuser 'faces death threats' Could Kavanaugh confirmation be derailed? Dr Ford, a university professor, had originally been gifted a deadline on Friday, which later was extended to Saturday, to agree to testify. Her lawyer Debra Katz said in a letter to the committee on Saturday that her client had accepted the request to testify but wanted to "continue our negotiations" on the details. She also wrote that "many aspects of the proposal you provided ... are fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee's promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations, and we are disappointed with the leaks and the bullying that have tainted the process".
