A woman who acknowledged falsely accusing Supreme Court Justice Brett
Kavanaugh of rape is being referred to the FBI and Department of
Justice for investigation, according to an official letter.
Senate
Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said in a letter sent
Friday to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Jeff
Sessions that the woman, Judy Munro-Leighton, admitted Thursday that she
falsely
claimed in an email to committee staff on Oct. 3 that Kavanaugh and a friend had raped her.
In
the email, Munro-Leighton claimed to be the author of an anonymous
letter sent to California Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris on Sept. 19. In
that letter, a person who signed the letter as “Jane Doe”
claimed Kavanaugh and a friend raped her in the back of a car.
Grassley,
an Iowa Republican, said investigators quickly discovered that
Munro-Leighton was a “left-wing activist” who is decades older than
Kavanaugh.
