Outside counsel for Ford hearing says no ‘reasonable prosecutor’ would bring charges against Kavanaugh
(Worthy News) – The outside counsel appointed by Senate Judiciary Republicans to ask questions during a hearing Thursday regarding the sexual assault allegation that California professor Christine Blasey Ford has pinned on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, says no “reasonable prosecutor” would bring criminal charges against the judge.
In a five-page memo, which stresses that this was not a trial but rather a job interview, sent to Senate Republicans and obtained by the Washington Examiner, Arizona county sex crimes prosecutor Rachel Mitchell said, “A ‘he said, she said’ case is incredibly difficult to prove. But this case is even weaker than that.”
“Dr. Ford identified other witnesses to the event, and those witnesses either refuted her allegations or failed to corroborate them,” she said of Ford’s testimony. “For the reasons discussed below, I do not think that a reasonable prosecutor would bring this case based on the evidence before the Committee. Nor do I believe that this evidence is sufficient to satisfy the preponderance-of-the-evidence standard.” [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
