The psychology professor, 51,testified in front of the Senate Judiciary Committeeon Thursday, claiming that at a high school party in the 1980s, Kavanaugh, 53, allegedly pinned her down to a bed, groped her and tried to remove her clothes. Ford added that Kavanaugh and his friendMark Judge‘slaughter stands out in her recollections of the alleged attack.
“Indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter,” she said. “The uproarious laughter between the two and their having fun at my expense… I was underneath one of them [Kavanaugh] while the two laughed. Two friends having a really good time with one another.”
The Supreme Court nominee has denied the allegations.During his testimony, Kavanaugh called Ford’s story and resulting hearings “a circus.”

He continued, “The consequences will extend long past my nomination. The consequences will long be with us for decades. This grotesque character assassination will dissuade competent and good people of all political persuasions from serving our country. … My family and I intend no ill will toward Dr. Ford or her family. But I swear today under oath, before the Senate and the nation, before my family and God, I am innocent of this charge.”
The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to vote on Kavanaugh’s confirmation on Friday at 1:30 p.m. ET.
