Attorney: Kavanaugh’s Boulder accuser wants FBI to investigate her allegations

The Boulder woman who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct while they both were college students is “adamant” that the FBI investigate the allegation, according to Twitter messages her attorney sent out Tuesday.

John Clune, the Boulder attorney who is representing Deborah Ramirez, also said he and his client have been in contact with the Senate Judiciary Committee.

In his first tweet, Clune wrote: “We are in contact with the Senate Judiciary Committee to determine the best process to provide Senators with additional information. We remain adamant that an FBI investigation, where all witnesses are questioned under threat of perjury, is the only way to get the truth.”

The second tweet read: “Our client remains willing to cooperate with such an inquiry.”
