Sen. Chuck Grassley referred attorney Michael Avenatti and his client Julie Swetnick to the Justice Department for criminal investigation. He cited Swetnick's interview with NBC News as evidence the two were trying to mislead the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Swetnick back-tracked on or contradicted parts of her sworn statement where she alleged she witnessed Brett Kavanaugh "cause girls to become inebriated and disoriented so they could then be 'gang raped' by a 'train' of boys."
Another woman whose statement Avenatti provided to the Senate.
The unidentified woman said she witnessed Kavanaugh "spike" the punch at high school parties in order to sexually take advantage of girls. But less than 48 hours, the woman said she never met Swetnick in high school and never saw her at parties. When asked if she ever witnessed Kavanaugh act inappropriately towards girls, the woman replied, "no."
She did describe a culture of heavy drinking in high school that she took part in, Kavanaugh and his friend were part of that group.
