MADDOW The FBI background ░░░░░░░░ into Supreme Court nominee ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh that was reopened ░░░░░░░░ few days ago to ░░░░░░░░ fanfare we are awaiting ░░░░░░░░ tonight on whether that ░░░░░░░░ investigation is now suddenly ░░░░░░░░ well ahead of schedule ░░░░░░░░ Street Journal The New ░░░░░░░░ Times and now NBC ░░░░░░░░ reporting that the FBI ░░░░░░░░ be wrapping up this ░░░░░░░░ very soon perhaps by ░░░░░░░░ maybe even as early ░░░░░░░░ tonight That s surprising ░░░░░░░░ only because they have ░░░░░░░░ the end of the ░░░░░░░░ but it s particularly ░░░░░░░░ given how many potential ░░░░░░░░ and other people with ░░░░░░░░ relevant information have reported ░░░░░░░░ the past few days ░░░░░░░░ they have been trying ░░░░░░░░ reach the FBI to ░░░░░░░░ them information for this ░░░░░░░░ but no one from ░░░░░░░░ FBI has gotten back ░░░░░░░░ them Lawyers even for ░░░░░░░░ Blasey Ford who accuses ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh of assaulting her ░░░░░░░░ high school her lawyers ░░░░░░░░ to the FBI Director ░░░░░░░░ saying they haven t ░░░░░░░░ any response to their ░░░░░░░░ of an interview and ░░░░░░░░ information The lawyer for ░░░░░░░░ Ramirez another Kavanaugh accuser ░░░░░░░░ his time in college ░░░░░░░░ lawyer says that his ░░░░░░░░ was interviewed by the ░░░░░░░░ but it doesn t ░░░░░░░░ that agents followed up ░░░░░░░░ any of the corroborating ░░░░░░░░ that she provided information ░░░░░░░░ We did get news ░░░░░░░░ in the last hour ░░░░░░░░ one more interview the ░░░░░░░░ has completed The Washington ░░░░░░░░ now reports that Tim ░░░░░░░░ a high school classmate ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh s was interviewed ░░░░░░░░ But then there is ░░░░░░░░ Rasor former girlfriend of ░░░░░░░░ Judge Mark Judge is ░░░░░░░░ high school classmate that ░░░░░░░░ Blasey Ford says was ░░░░░░░░ the room when Kavanaugh ░░░░░░░░ assaulted her Ms Rasor ░░░░░░░░ his college girlfriend Her ░░░░░░░░ tells us today that ░░░░░░░░ have made several attempts ░░░░░░░░ contact the FBI because ░░░░░░░░ has information that could ░░░░░░░░ helpful to the FBI ░░░░░░░░ inquiries Her attorney Roberta ░░░░░░░░ calls it extremely unusual ░░░░░░░░ the FBI would not ░░░░░░░░ up after their repeated ░░░░░░░░ to contact them given ░░░░░░░░ relevance of what her ░░░░░░░░ has to say This ░░░░░░░░ Robby Kaplan took a ░░░░░░░░ step today of releasing ░░░░░░░░ us the sworn affidavit ░░░░░░░░ client has signed laying ░░░░░░░░ what she wants to ░░░░░░░░ the FBI Now as ░░░░░░░░ as I m aware ░░░░░░░░ affidavit has not been ░░░░░░░░ public before right now ░░░░░░░░ tonight but we have ░░░░░░░░ for you Here it ░░░░░░░░ Quote I Elizabeth Rasor ░░░░░░░░ duly sworn hereby depose ░░░░░░░░ say I make this ░░░░░░░░ based on my personal ░░░░░░░░ I have a bachelor ░░░░░░░░ degree in English Literature ░░░░░░░░ Catholic University and a ░░░░░░░░ s degree in Special ░░░░░░░░ from Teacher s College ░░░░░░░░ Columbia University I first ░░░░░░░░ Mark Judge in or ░░░░░░░░ the fall of 1986 ░░░░░░░░ we were both students ░░░░░░░░ Catholic University We engaged ░░░░░░░░ a serious romantic relationship ░░░░░░░░ approximately two years beginning ░░░░░░░░ 1986 through 1988 We ░░░░░░░░ exclusively during much of ░░░░░░░░ time period and attempted ░░░░░░░░ reunite several times in ░░░░░░░░ months afterward until I ░░░░░░░░ to New York from ░░░░░░░░ D C in 1989 ░░░░░░░░ we were dating I ░░░░░░░░ time with Mark s ░░░░░░░░ from Georgetown Prep and ░░░░░░░░ a couple of social ░░░░░░░░ at which they were ░░░░░░░░ I met Brett Kavanaugh ░░░░░░░░ a couple of social ░░░░░░░░ on or around 1987 ░░░░░░░░ continued to socialize with ░░░░░░░░ and their friends from ░░░░░░░░ Prep during this time ░░░░░░░░ the parties Brett and ░░░░░░░░ attended during this period ░░░░░░░░ was frequent and widespread ░░░░░░░░ consumption In or around ░░░░░░░░ in the context of ░░░░░░░░ conversation we had about ░░░░░░░░ we lost our virginities ░░░░░░░░ told me in a ░░░░░░░░ that seemed to convey ░░░░░░░░ degree of shame about ░░░░░░░░ incident that had occurred ░░░░░░░░ few years prior where ░░░░░░░░ and several other boys ░░░░░░░░ Georgetown Prep took turns ░░░░░░░░ sex with a woman ░░░░░░░░ was drunk It was ░░░░░░░░ s perception that the ░░░░░░░░ activity was consensual To ░░░░░░░░ best of my recollection ░░░░░░░░ the time of the ░░░░░░░░ I and I believe ░░░░░░░░ were sober After this ░░░░░░░░ conversation Mark and I ░░░░░░░░ discussed this again Mark ░░░░░░░░ not share with me ░░░░░░░░ names of other individuals ░░░░░░░░ in this incident and ░░░░░░░░ do not have any ░░░░░░░░ to suggest one way ░░░░░░░░ another that Brett was ░░░░░░░░ of them Mark and ░░░░░░░░ broke up toward the ░░░░░░░░ of 1988 I last ░░░░░░░░ with Mark in or ░░░░░░░░ 2013 We met for ░░░░░░░░ at Georgetown University to ░░░░░░░░ up and I brought ░░░░░░░░ son I solemnly swear ░░░░░░░░ affirm under the penalties ░░░░░░░░ perjury that the matters ░░░░░░░░ forth in this affidavit ░░░░░░░░ true and correct to ░░░░░░░░ best of my personal ░░░░░░░░ information and belief and ░░░░░░░░ is dated September 26th ░░░░░░░░ Wednesday Elizabeth Rasor is ░░░░░░░░ of several people with ░░░░░░░░ that would seem to ░░░░░░░░ a bearing on the ░░░░░░░░ s investigation of these ░░░░░░░░ At the very least ░░░░░░░░ would think the FBI ░░░░░░░░ want to just compare ░░░░░░░░ recollections of someone like ░░░░░░░░ Elizabeth Rasor with Brett ░░░░░░░░ s insistence that nothing ░░░░░░░░ what she is describing ░░░░░░░░ happened when he was ░░░░░░░░ high school But as ░░░░░░░░ said this was dated ░░░░░░░░ 26 that s because ░░░░░░░░ has been trying to ░░░░░░░░ the FBI to take ░░░░░░░░ statement Apparently that FBI ░░░░░░░░ though may be done ░░░░░░░░ minute and they are ░░░░░░░░ interested in hearing from ░░░░░░░░ How should we understand ░░░░░░░░ is going on inside ░░░░░░░░ FBI investigation right now?”
