| Additional Information | Dr. Christine Blasey Ford is a professor of psychology at Stanford University. Following the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the United States Supreme Court by Donald Trump, Blasey Ford came forward alleging that Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her while the two were in high school. On September 28, 2018, Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on her experience with Kavanaugh. Kavanaugh also testified in the same hearing. Despite Blasesy Ford's allegations, the Senate voted to confirm Kavanaugh on October 6 2018. Despite Kavanaugh's confirmation, Blasey Ford has since expressed satisfaction that her allegation increased awareness of sexual assault in the United States. |
