Arizona prosecutor Rachel Mitchell, who was hired by Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans to question Judge Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser Christine Blasey Ford during the committee's hearing into allegations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh, questioned the credibility of her accusations and called the case "weak" in her assessment of Ford's allegations.

In a memo to Senate Republicans, Mitchell details nine main points she says raise questions about the credibility of Ford's account. She concludes no prosecutor would bring the case, nor is the evidence sufficient to prevail even in a civil trial.

"In the legal context, here is my bottom line: A "he said, she said" case is incredibly difficult to prove. But this case is even weaker than that," wrote Mitchell.

Mitchell cited Ford's inability to pinpoint when the alleged assault took place, her struggle to clearly identify Kavanaugh as her assailant by name, lack of key details like how she got to the party or where the party took place and inconsistencies in her account of the encounter as areas of concern in her allegations.

Mitchell's report says that Democrats and Ford's own attorneys were "likely affected Dr. Ford's account."

Memorandum prosecutor Rachel Mitchell

The prosecutor largely stuck to procedure during Thursday's day-long hearing, probing Ford on specifics of a polygraph test she took as well as relationships with people involved in her allegations.

She also asked Ford about how she had arrived at the hearing. Ford, who lives in California, had previously expressed fear of flying, although she acknowledged she took a plane in this instance and also has flown on vacations. Mitchell's report cited this portion of the hearing as questionable, saying it was not clear that her attorneys ever responded to Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley's offer to send investigators to meet her in California to conduct her interview.

Mitchell, a career prosecutor with decades of experience prosecuting sex crimes, currently heads the Special Victims Division, which covers sex crimes and family violence, at the Maricopa County Attorney's Office in Phoenix.

This report is one-sided. It's unfair and shameful. Rachel Mitchell is the Arizona prosecutor for hire. She's a disgrace to the profession. Republicans are so desperate to seat Kavanaugh they paid for a bogus report on the taxpayer expenses. Read the full report for yourself. You will see why it is unacceptable by anyone's standard:

1. She asked closed questions to Ms. Ford (tried to lock her in--discredit her story).
2. She didn't talk with the woman first.
3. She did no investigation.
4. She didn't wait on the FBI findings (not concluded).
5. She didn't mention Kavanaugh's name in the report.
6. She made no mention of Kavanaugh emotional out of control behavior, belligerence, and rant.
7. She used criminal standards (explain her conclusion-worse than "he said/he said") instead of a fact-finding method for the setting as required.
8. At best, Ms. Mitchell's report is premature. At worst, the report is not worth the paper it is written on.
9. The report is written to Republicans and not to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

These are just some of the short-coming of this report. Rachel Mitchell dirty herself and the underhanded Republicans what they wanted. She has prostituted the process and misrepresented the law of fairness, investigation, and justice. Ms. Mitchell is a disgrace to women, in general, and an enemy of survival rape victims. CM

Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh “**** in college, Chad Ludington, a Yale classmate of his, said in a statement. Erin Schaff for The New York Times

Chad Ludington, a Yale classmate of Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh’s who said he often drank with him, issued a statement on Sunday saying the Supreme Court nominee was not truthful about his drinking in his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week.

Here is the full text of the statement:

I have been contacted by numerous reporters about Brett Kavanaugh and have not wanted to say anything because I had nothing to contribute about what kind of justice he would be. I knew Brett at Yale because I was a classmate and a varsity basketball player and Brett enjoyed socializing with athletes. Indeed, athletes formed the core of Brett’s social circle.

In recent days I have become deeply troubled by what has been a blatant mischaracterization by Brett himself of his drinking at Yale. When I watched Brett and his wife being interviewed on Fox News on Monday, and when I watched Brett deliver his testimony under oath to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, I cringed. For the fact is, at Yale, and I can speak to no other times, Brett was a frequent drinker, and a heavy drinker. I know, because, especially in our first two years of college, I often drank with him. On many occasions I heard Brett slur his words and saw him staggering from alcohol consumption, not all of which was beer. When Brett got drunk, he was often belligerent and aggressive. On one of the last occasions I purposely socialized with Brett, I witnessed him respond to a semi-hostile remark, not by defusing the situation, but by throwing his beer in the man’s face and starting a fight that ended with one of our mutual friends in jail.

I do not believe that the heavy drinking or even loutish behavior of an 18- or even 21-year-old should condemn a person for the rest of his life. I would be a hypocrite to think so. However, I have direct and repeated knowledge about his drinking and his disposition while drunk. And I do believe that Brett’s actions as a 53-year-old federal judge matter. If he lied about his past actions on national television, and more especially while speaking under oath in front of the United States Senate, I believe those lies should have consequences. It is truth that is at stake, and I believe that the ability to speak the truth, even when it does not reflect well upon oneself, is a paramount quality we seek in our nation’s most powerful judges.

I can unequivocally say that in denying the possibility that he ever blacked out from drinking, and in downplaying the degree and frequency of his drinking, Brett has not told the truth.

I felt it was my civic duty to tell of my experience while drinking with Brett, and I offer this statement to the press. I have no desire to speak further publicly, and nothing more to say to the press at this time. I will, however, take my information to the F.B.I. -- Charles (Chad) Ludington

It also appears his wife knows of his drinking past. See how sad she is. Alcohol has and is destroying this man' life, not the hearings. Were we experiencing the effect of Alcohol on Kavanaugh’s brain? Smart man, bad habits, and poor temperament = unfit for "High Court". Dump, Kavanaugh! It's likely a conservative is going on the just the same. Why the Republicans don't get this? CM
