S*******i 发帖数: 2018 | 1 The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been instructed by the White House
to interview two of the women who have alleged sexual misconduct by Brett
Kavanaugh, according to people familiar with the matter.
The parameters of the FBI probe don’t include interviewing Julie Swetnick,
who said this week the Supreme Court nominee attended a party decades ago
where she was gang-raped, according to one of the people.
The focus on the first two accusations suggests that the White House doesn’
t consider Ms. Swetnick’s accusations credible, people familiar with the
instructions said, a decision that drew criticism from Ms. Swetnick’s
attorney, Michael Avenatti.
The Wall Street Journal has attempted to corroborate Ms. Swetnick’s account
, contacting dozens of former classmates and colleagues, but couldn't reach
anyone with knowledge of her allegations. No friends have come forward to
publicly support her claims.
She has recorded a TV interview to be aired Sunday, the first woman making
accusations against the Supreme Court nominee to do so. NBC’s “Morning Joe
” on Thursday aired a clip of her interview with John Heilemann of Showtime
’s “The Circus,” in which Ms. Swetnick called for an investigation into
the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh. |
