Srinivas Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 good article by Jonathan, Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington University https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/407405-ford-has-no-right-to-set-conditions-for-kavanaugh-testimony Ford has no right to set conditions for Kavanaugh testimony in a nutshell . Also hrc on racheal madow show says that Dr.Ford might not even testify even after an investigation. how convenient. Meanwhile the accuser has offered no additional tidbits of info. just a game imo.? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggles45 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 "She is accusing somebody of sexual assault, of course it should be investigated by the proper authorities. And a senate commission is not the proper authorities" Is sexual assault a Federal crime, or is it one to be investigated by local authorities.? The head of the senate commission said on the news that they have investigators that have the ability to do this, and have been used in other cases .

DJ54 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I’ve no idea what the legal ramifications are in this case. Read a few articles one saying that in Mass. this would be a misdemeanor not a Felony. Per Mass. statue of limitations laws the time has passed to prosecute. If this happened to her then let it be stated so if deemed. Articles said this is not a crime under the FBI umbrella. Artilces state hes already been vetted by the FBI which typically go back 7-10 years on background check. One article brings questions if valid. Kavanaugh’s side, how do you defend yourself from a three-decade-old accusation? That’s doubly true when the accuser isn’t even sure what year the assault took place in, let alone what day or exactly where it occurred other than a vague description of a suburban Maryland student’s house on a night when no parents were home. There’s a reason we have statutes of limitations in criminal cases Ok that’s my jab at armchair law with nothing better to do....ha ha I’m not a Trump fan but if it’s a ploy to discredit of delay that’s is wrong. one thing good about not living in the USA don’t have to listen to all the crap slinging It’s whisky river take me home time!

Enjoy! Cool... enjoy the ride home... but when you sober up, consider that this is less about the crime at the time, (unprosecutable now) ... but more about a Supreme Court nominee (for life) lying under oath (as a minimum), right now. maybe an investigation might clear that up. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jingthing Posted September 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) Let's get real here. This isn't an alleged crime that could possibly be prosecuted now. It's past the limitations and there won't be any hard physical evidence. If it actually went to court, there would lots of reasonable doubt anyway. But that isn't what this is about. This is a senate process, not a criminal trial. Ford has no reason to lie, to ruin her life at this stage other than finally getting out the truth about a man on the verge of being gifted epic power. For life. It's confirmed (and I know this personally) that the culture back then in such elite schools found this kind of behavior as accused more or less normal. So she's PROBABLY telling the truth, and he's PROBABLY lying. But the only way at this point to measure how much probably either way is a more detailed INVESTIGATION beyond the he said/she said statements. Reasonable doubt isn't relevant here. Conclusions that he probably did it and he's probably LYING about the denial (under oath presumably) are more than enough to deny him the position. The only one who can order this FBI investigation in this case is the white house. Of course "trump" won't do that. So the republicans will probably be able to steamroll this through soon. But they will pay a political price especially from women. Maybe some of you don't get the environment back then.

That was one of the psychoses or bad ideas I had about women while I was there.” On Tuesday, MacMullan signed the letter of support for Ford.

How does the fact (assuming above is actually true) that someone went to parties “impeach her (...) claims” that she was sexually assaulted at one of those parties? Wouldn’t it have to be the other way round; her claims of sexual assault at a high school party would be impeached if someone found she actually never went to any party.

There we have it, someone offers the opinion thatthat the victim is ‘probably telling the truth’ and the alleged culprit is ‘probably lying’ but that this should be resolved by an ‘investigation’. Illiberal jumps to the conclusion that the person offering that opinion has decided who’s telling the truth and who’s the guilt party. Meanwhile the claim that Kavanaugh is a ‘great man’ is without basis. So much of what needs to be known about Kavanaugh before making such a claim is being withheld from public scrutiny. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway why wait? nothing about politics right? they had the letter in July, it was unreported for 35 years and then this registered Democrat throws in the political grenade. All my points are truthful and accurate which cannot always be said for your liberal 'spin games'. This guy has had 6 FBI checks, 100s hours of questions and was about to be confirmed. Then this woman throws in "he tried to take off my clothes"? if you were A-political you would see the set-up which is the obvious elephant in the room. I don't want a conservative, right wing anti pro choice on SCOTUS but I hate this nasty partisan game playing (and both side do it).
