Deborah Ramirez, a former classmate of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, has come forward to say like Christine Blasey Ford that he sexually assaulted her. A third accuser will come out, according to Michael Avenatti.
Ramirez, who is reportedly from Boulder, Colorado, spoke about the second sexual misconduct to The New Yorker with Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer.
The 53-year-old Yale classmate of Kavanaugh said she attended a party where Kavanaugh allegedly exposed himself to her without her consent.
She also claimed that Kavanaugh also allegedly forced her to touch his penis. The incident reportedly occurred during the 1983-84 academic school year.

The accuser said that despite being drunk that night, there are specific details she can never forget.
She revealed that Kavanaugh was mocking her and added: “I remember a penis being in front of my face. I knew that’s not what I wanted, even in that state of mind.”
Ramirez confessed that some of the boys at the event told her to kiss it.
She went on to say: “I can still see his face, and his hips were coming forward, like when you pull up your pants. Somebody yelled down the hall, ‘Brett Kavanaugh just put his penis in Debbie’s face. It was his full name. I don’t think it was just ‘Brett.’ And I remember hearing and being mortified that this was out there.”
Ramirez told the publication that the FBI should investigate the matter.
She said: “I didn’t want any of this. But now I have to speak. … I’m afraid how this will all come back on me.”

Kavanaugh issued a statement denying the claims: “This alleged event from 35 years ago did not happen.”
Donald Trump‘s White House is backing Kavanaugh in a statement that reads: “This 35-year-old, uncorroborated claim is the latest in a coordinated smear campaign by the Democrats designed to tear down a good man. This claim is denied by all who were said to be present and is wholly inconsistent with what many women and men who knew Judge Kavanaugh at the time in college say. The White House stands firmly behind Judge Kavanaugh.”
Avenatti, who is Stormy Daniels‘ lawyer, said that a third woman had contacted him to represent her.
The attorney said the accuser has “credible information regarding” Kavanaugh and his friend, Mark Judge.
