Ms Ramirez has said Mr Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a party in the early 1980s when they were Yale students. President Donald Trump ordered the FBI on Friday to reopen Mr Kavanaugh’s background investigation after several women accused Mr Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. The investigators will compile information about Mr Kavanaugh’s past and provide their findings to the White House and include the information in Mr Kavanaugh’s background file, which is available to senators. Mr Kavanaugh and another of his accusers, Christine Blasey Ford, who says Mr Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when both were teenagers, testified publicly before the Judiciary Committee on Thursday. Mr Kavanaugh has called her accusations a “joke” and Mr Judge has said he “categorically” denies the allegations.
