John Clune, lawyer for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s second accuser Deborah Ramirez, sent a letter Wednesday directly to the FBI to request an investigation of her sexual misconduct claim.

Ramirez has been requesting an FBI investigation since she came forward with her allegation that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a Yale party, but Senate Republicans have not been receptive to the request.

    I am becoming curiouser - what kind of person being loudly and publicly accused of such slimy behavior by several ‘strangers’ would not be clamoring for an investigation? Is this the behavior of an honest man being unfairly accused?
