Multiple reports on Monday evening shed new light on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s recent efforts to rein in his friends’ comments about his behavior as a student at Yale University. The text messages, however, indicate that his team had been working to refute Ramirez’s accusation long beforehand. Kavanaugh was not arrested, but another Yale classmate who was at the bar that night issued a statement providing other details of the encounter. A Yale classmate of Kavanaugh’s, Kerry Berchem, told NBC that she had emailed an FBI agent about the text messages and sent a follow-up note, but had not heard back. “However, I am in receipt of text messages from a mutual friend of both Debbie and mine that raise questions related to the allegations,” Berchem said.
