Several former classmates of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, who just months ago endorsed his nomination to the Supreme Court, have now called for the Yale alumnus to be investigated over allegations of sexual misconduct. Ramirez alleged in an interview with The New Yorker on Sunday that Kavanaugh exposed himself and thrust his penis in her face at a party when they were students at Yale University during the 1983-84 school year. Kavanaugh has denied the allegations, and both women have asked for the FBI to investigate their accusations. “The confirmation process should be conducted in a way that fosters trust in the process and the Supreme Court, and that seriously considers allegations of sexual violence,” Kent Sinclair and Douglas Rutzen said in a statement to the Post on Tuesday. A third member of Yale Law School’s class of 1990, Mark Osler, told the Post that the circumstances around the allegations “need to be probed.”
