Seven takeaways from Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh's Senate hearings

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser Dr Christine Blasey Ford presented their testimonies before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday
PUBLISHED SEP 28, 2018

President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser clinical psychology professor Dr Christine Blasey Ford presented their testimonies before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday. Ford detailed her account of the sexual assault and Kavanaugh denied the allegations.

The testimonies were historic as Ford became the first woman in decades to be publicly subject to questioning about the painful details of her harrowing experience in 1980s citing her "civic duty" to come forward. 

During her testimony, in which she appeared calm, polite and almost apologetic, Ford described how Kavanaugh, then 17, along with at least three other boys, pinned her down on a bed at a gathering and attempted to rape her and covered her mouth to muffle her screams when she was 15 years of age.
