Attorney Michael Avenatti said Wednesday that a woman he represents, who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of enabling sexual assault, is "100 percent" prepared to testify about her claims before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Swetnick alleged in a signed declaration made public Wednesday that Kavanaugh and others attempted to intoxicate girls at parties in the 1980s so they could be "Gang raped," and that Kavanaugh was present during a "Gang rape" in which she was the victim.
She and Kavanaugh are set to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday about her claims.
Kavanaugh said Monday on Fox that he wants the opportunity to be heard.
Deborah Ramirez went public on Sunday with her allegation that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a party during his freshman year at Yale, also in the 1980s.
Kavanaugh has denied the claims from Ford and Ramirez, calling them "Smears" and vowing he will not withdraw his nomination.
"I'm going to caution Donald Trump, Brett Kavanaugh, Grassley and others: If they try to come after my client or engage in some smear campaign, they better pack a lunch, because we're going to respond two-fold," Avenatti said.
