Negative.. attempted rape was a misdemeanor in 1982, with a one year statute. There is no legal process to investigate this claim. It's time barred now.Halifax2TheMax said:
There’s no statute of limitations in Maryland for sex crimes. After an FBI investigation, Dr. Ford could walk into a police station, make a statement that she was sexually assaulted and the DA would determin, via presentation of evidence to a grand jury, of which, one would think, the results of the FBI investigation would be presented. The grand jury would determine if enough evidence is presented that sufficiently indicates whether a crime has been committed and if so, Kavanaugh would be indicted and the DA would press charges. If the grand jury wasn’t convinced, no indictment. There’s your due process. What’s Kavanaugh afraid of?mickeyrat said:
and what due process would entail after a proper investigation , given the allegation may land outside the of the statute of limitations? Investigation may well lead to establishment that it did in fact happen, so what then? Given the senate hearing isnt a court of law, how exactly should they proceed with due process?oftenreading said:
So, apparently you are convinced that none of us care, based on the fact that we’ve repeatedly expressed our disgust at the treatment Blasey Ford and many others have received, but you expect us to believe that you do care, based on your careless dismissal of her.unsung said:
That first part is a pretty ridiculous statement and absolutely untrue. My stance remains, do a proper investigation and give due process. This is neither.oftenreading said:
You might not give a shit about women who have been abused, but some other people actually do.unsung said:Really, let’s be honest, not a single one of you gives a shit about this woman. Your entire mission is to keep another Trump nominee off of the Supreme Court, at least admit that and retain some amount of integrity. You’ll all forget her name by the end of next week after he gets confirmed.
Of course there isn’t anything to stop her from filing a proper police report to fully investigate this accusation. If the evidence proves him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt then remove him from the Court. I’d support that 100%.
I stand corrected. I had heard Maryland didn't have a statue of limitations for sex crimes but getting rid of the limitations originated in 1996. Seems not much can be done legally but an FBI investigation can determine whether Kavanaugh testified truthfully about many aspects of his youth that he testified under oath to. As such, the Senate could call further witnesses to testify and be cross examined. If Kavanaugh is so certain of his "innocence" and portrayal of his youth, what is he afraid of?09/15/1998 & 09/16/1998, Mansfield, MA; 08/29/00 08/30/00, Mansfield, MA; 07/02/03, 07/03/03, Mansfield, MA; 09/28/04, 09/29/04, Boston, MA; 09/22/05, Halifax, NS; 05/24/06, 05/25/06, Boston, MA; 07/22/06, 07/23/06, Gorge, WA; 06/27/2008, Hartford; 06/28/08, 06/30/08, Mansfield; 08/18/2009, O2, London, UK; 10/30/09, 10/31/09, Philadelphia, PA; 05/15/10, Hartford, CT; 05/17/10, Boston, MA; 05/20/10, 05/21/10, NY, NY; 06/22/10, Dublin, IRE; 06/23/10, Northern Ireland; 09/03/11, 09/04/11, Alpine Valley, WI; 09/11/11, 09/12/11, Toronto, Ont; 09/14/11, Ottawa, Ont; 09/15/11, Hamilton, Ont; 07/02/2012, Prague, Czech Republic; 07/04/2012 & 07/05/2012, Berlin, Germany; 07/07/2012, Stockholm, Sweden; 09/30/2012, Missoula, MT; 07/16/2013, London, Ont; 07/19/2013, Chicago, IL; 10/15/2013 & 10/16/2013, Worcester, MA; 10/21/2013 & 10/22/2013, Philadelphia, PA; 10/25/2013, Hartford, CT; 11/29/2013, Portland, OR; 11/30/2013, Spokane, WA; 12/04/2013, Vancouver, BC; 12/06/2013, Seattle, WA; 10/03/2014, St. Louis.

I think he shouldn't be on the supreme court because he's a partisan hack and he lies under oath, I've been very consistent about that.

I just don't understand the logic I keep reading of "well if he doesn't want to be investigated, then he must be guilty."
If that is the logic, then you must think every president who has ever been accused of any scandal (which is probably all of them) are guilty.

This guy isn't fit to serve. His temperament in the hearings yesterday proved that. And I do believe the accuser. Hopefully the FBI can talk to Judge and other witnesses. I have emailed my dipshit Senator who happens to be on the Judiciary Committee in the small chance that the sorry partisan bastard has a conscience.livefootsteps.org/user/?usr=446
