Grassley refers criminal charges against Kavanaugh accuser

A left-wing activist who sent an anonymous letter to Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., accusing Brett Kavanaugh of raping her now admits she engaged in a "Ploy" against the then-Supreme Court nominee.

In a letter to Attorney General Jeff Sessions referring criminal charges, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley said Judy Munro-Leighton confessed to committee staff that she "Fabricated allegations."

Kavanaugh was questioned by the committee after an anonymous letter signed 'Jane Doe' alleged he and a friend raped an Oceanside, California, woman in a car.

Grassley said said that when "Individuals intentionally mislead the Committee, they divert Committee resources during time-sensitive investigations and materially impede our work. Such acts are not only unfair; they are potentially illegal."

"It is illegal to make materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements to Congressional investigators. It is illegal to obstruct Committee investigations," Grassley said.

Avenatti also was referred for promoting to the committee another woman who accused Kavanaugh accuser of gang rape.

Grassley said committee investigators began investigating the allegations and through open sources determined that she is a left-wing activist; is decades older than Kavanaugh; and lives in neither the Washington, D.C. area nor California, but in Kentucky.
