She described having seen Kavanaugh’s classmate Mark Judge — who she alleges was in the room when the attack occurred — shortly after the alleged incident. This was never more evident to me than when, to raise money for football camp, I spent a few weeks working as a bag boy at the local supermarket. Ford said she saw him working at a store between six and eight weeks after the alleged incident. The alleged incident could have been six weeks before Aug. 22, for example, or it could have been eight weeks before the end of July. Judge’s book not only suggests that the summer of 1982 was probably the period during which the alleged incident occurred but also makes the likelihood that he was heavily intoxicated — as Ford has claimed — greater.
