A second Kavanaugh accuser insists on the FBI's question: the lawyer

Deborah Ramirez, the second woman to publicly accuse Brett Kavanaugh, a Supreme Court justice candidate, of sexual misconduct, is ready to testify if the FBI investigates her allegations, her lawyer said late Tuesday.

Speaking with CNN's Anderson, lawyer John Clune said that his client's claim should be investigated, but not necessarily by Congress. A hearing for Senators, he insisted, would not replace the need for an investigation into the application of the law in his statement that Kavanaugh was exposed to her during the day. 39, a university party.

"This must be studied by a significant law enforcement. This is not something that can be done by the Senate or a committed gun prosecutor, "he said.

"This must be done by the FBI who can investigate the case with the threat of perjury. Our client would be ready to do it, "he added.

When asked if Ramirez would testify without an FBI investigation, Clune said he "would not recommend doing it, no."

Prior to the interview, Clune accused the Senate Judiciary Committee of refusing to meet with his client and discuss his allegations.

Clune said on Twitter that Ramirez only came forward after being contacted by Ronan Farrow and that she had carefully studied her memories to ensure her accuracy.

"We contacted the Senate Judiciary Committee to schedule an appeal," he wrote, adding that they "refused to respect any scheduled appointments."

Senate Republicans have announced plans to move ahead with plans to confirm Kavanaugh after Thursday's hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee where he and his first accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, will testify.

Ford says that in the 1980s, Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her in a bedroom at a party. Kavanaugh denied the allegations of Ford and Ramirez. The Judiciary Committee has scheduled a vote on Kavanaugh's confirmation for Friday morning.
