Christine Blasey Ford, a professor at Palo Alto University in California, told the Washington Post in a report published online Sunday that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her in the early 1980s. Ford said that at a gathering of high school students, Kavanaugh and another friend corralled her to a bedroom where Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed and groped her, adding that she feared he might kill her. Kavanaugh has denied the allegations. NewsHour’s Lisa Desjardins joins Hari Sreenivasan for more.
