As an undergraduate student at Yale, Brett M. Kavanaugh was involved in an altercation at a local bar during which he was accused of throwing ice on another patron, according to a police report.

The incident, which occurred in September 1985 during Mr. Kavanaugh’s junior year, resulted in Mr. Kavanaugh and four other men being questioned by the New Haven Police Department. Mr. Kavanaugh was not arrested, but the police report stated that a 21-year-old man accused Mr. Kavanaugh of throwing ice on him “for some unknown reason.”

The horror!! A college-aged man drank and got into a fight?

He threw ice!!!!

Liberals are really grasping at straws.

The fact that this event is supported by contemporaneous evidence supports the credibility of his classmate who reported it. That individual claimed that Kavanaugh repeatedly engaged in heavy drinking. The White House is putting out statements from classmates trying to refute such stories. But this add weight to the heavy drinking claims.

All this talk of the process being akin to a job interview are so ridiculous. Tell me about the job interviews you've had where half of the people who are interviewing you have publicly stated that there is zero chance that they will consider hiring you.

Kavanaugh never said he didn't drink to excess when he was younger. And unless this police report states Kavanaugh was incoherently drunk, I'm not sure how his throwing ice on someone is confirmation he was drinking heavily.

More evidence of bad behavior by Kavanaugh...

In the days leading up to a public allegation that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh exposed himself to a college classmate, the judge and his team were communicating behind the scenes with friends to refute the claim, according to text messages obtained by NBC News.

Kerry Berchem, who was at Yale with both Kavanaugh and his accuser, Deborah Ramirez, has tried to get those messages to the FBI for its newly reopened investigation into the matter but says she has yet to be contacted by the bureau.

If you can't prosecute a case based on the details from the accuser, it's over. Unless it's about politics.

Wait, was this a criminal trial or a job interview?

Most rape cases do not get prosecuted, btw. My cousin immediately reported hers, and had bruises and other marks of evidence, but because it was a date rape and a small town out west where everyone knows each other, nothing happened. Prosecutor wouldn't do anything because 1) they had been dating and 2) it was he-said, she said. This was just 2 years ago.

Doesn't mean her rape didn't happen. Or that I would ever hire the creep who did it, just because he wasn't prosecuted for it.

It doesn't matter. An expert in the field determined that Ms. Ford recollection of events is full of holes. Imagine going on a job interview' where when asked about an alleged crime, you presented a report as extensive as the one Mitchell prepared to the employer, only to have that potential employer say "well I think you are guilty anyway!". You'd feel pretty angry.

And if you were the interviewer and told the interviewee you were not hiring him because you believe he is guilty of the crime, get ready for a world of legal hurt. There's a difference between whether or not an attack happened and whether or not your interviewee was the attacker

And, by the way? It's not a job interview. It's a constitutional process, and there's a huge difference between the two.

So there should be lower standards for a constitutional process a job interview? I can't agree with that logic.

And confirmation that he was a mean drunk

Because everyone goes to bars sober and tosses ice at people.

Imagine being Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and having Mitch McConnell and co say that Kavanaugh will be confirmed despite your allegations before you’ve had a chance to testify.

WOW! Shocking! Kavanaugh and his team were trying to get out in front of what they believed were false rumors being circulated by Deborah Ramirez amongst mutual friends of his and Ramirez. I'm trying to find the evidence of bad behavior. Was he/his team directing people to lie to congressional investigators?

He threw ice at someone. Did the report say he was knock-down drunk?
In college, at a party, I threw my beer in the face of some guy who wouldn’t leave me alone. I can assure you - I wasn’t drunk. I am quite the tee totaler.
I agree with pp above. You are grasping at straws.

And no job interview I ever had asked asked my drinking in college. ESPECIALLY when I was 30 years past college.
