The third Kavanaugh accuser has come forward. The accuser, who is represented by attorney Michael Avenatti makes some incredible claims about the Supreme Court nominee. It was reported yesterday that Avenatti could have been the victim of a prank, but today’s release by Mr. Avenatti puts that report in doubt.
According to Mediaite:
Attorney for Stormy Daniels, Michael Avenatti, earlier this week, claimed to have a client with a third allegation against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. He made the announcement, and tweeted lurid accusations, without offering the identity of the client or any evidence.
Today, Avenatti tweeted a name and photo of that client, along with screenshots of email correspondence and a sworn statement from the alleged victim laying out her allegations.
Here is a picture of my client Julie Swetnick. She is courageous, brave and honest. We ask that her privacy and that of her family be respected. pic.twitter.com/auuSeHm5s0

In his tweet that included the email screenshots, Avenatti asserted that Kavanaugh’s nomination must not go forward without more investigation of the claims.
Below is my correspondence to Mr. Davis of moments ago, together with a sworn declaration from my client. We demand an immediate FBI investigation into the allegations. Under no circumstances should Brett Kavanaugh be confirmed absent a full and complete investigation. pic.twitter.com/QHbHBbbfbE

Paragraph 13 in the sworn statement details the allegation:
In approximately 1982, I became the victim of one of these “gang” or “train” rapes where Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh were present. Shortly after the incident, I shared what had transpired with at least two other people. During the incident, I was incapacitated without my consent and unable to fight off the boys raping me. I believe I was drugged using Quaaludes or something similar placed in what I was drinking.”
If this is true it could completely derail the nomination of Mr. Kavanaugh. Mr. Avenatti hasn’t always been trustworthy, and the truth of these claims have yet to be determined.
