Byron York: Kavanaugh investigators need to see Christine Blasey Ford's therapy records

Christine Blasey Ford has no contemporaneous evidence to support her allegation that in 1982, when she was 15, a drunken, 17-year-old Brett Kavanaugh forced her onto a bed, tried to undress her, and, when she tried to scream, covered her mouth with his hand. Ford says she told no one about the alleged attack for 30 years.

But even then, in 2012, when Ford said she shared her secret, it was under circumstances that are not at all clear today. In statements to the press and in testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Ford has said that in 2012 and 2013 she told therapists about the alleged attack. She said she has reviewed the therapists' notes from those sessions. But by all accounts those notes do not mention Kavanaugh by name. Instead, Ford has explained that her husband, who was present at some of the therapy sessions, remembered that she identified Kavanaugh by name as the person who allegedly attacked her.

Over the summer, as Ford began to pursue her allegation, she provided the therapists' notes to the Washington Post. But she has refused to provide them to the Judiciary Committee. When the committee requested the notes, the Ford legal team said no, arguing that the records "contain private, highly sensitive information that is not necessary for the committee to assess the credibility of [Ford's] testimony."

I wonder if subpoenas for medical and legal records are ever successful. I'm sure it has happened. That would be time consuming as well.
