Mark Judge was also the person the professor named as being involved in Kavanaugh's attack on her in high school.

when the attempted rape occurred, and both young men had been drinking heavily.

And she reported this to her therapist in 2012, and has showed the therapist's notes to the WA Post.

9. Mark Judge, Kavanaugh's drunk buddy during the assault incident, isn't reliable witness to deny it

considering that he has admitted extreme alcoholism in his book, so his recollections of the assault incident involving Kavanaugh are not reliable.

...reporting reviews from ppl giving her one star but were not verified buyers. Amazon can and will yank your review privileges if you leave a fraud review. BUT if you have purchased and read Judges book, then review away!

'In his senior-class yearbook entry at Georgetown Prep, Kavanaugh made several references to drinking, claiming membership to the “Beach Week Ralph Club” and “Keg City Club.” He and Judge are pictured together at the beach in a photo in the yearbook.

Judge is a filmmaker and author who has written for the Daily Caller, The Weekly Standard and The Washington Post. He chronicled his recovery from alcoholism in “Wasted: Tales of a Gen-X Drunk,” which described his own blackout drinking and a culture of partying among students at his high school, renamed in the book “Loyola Prep.” Kavanaugh is not mentioned in the book, but a passage about partying at the beach one summer makes glancing reference to a “Bart O’Kavanaugh,” who “puked in someone’s car the other night” and “passed out on his way back from a party.”

Through the White House, Kavanaugh did not respond to a question about whether the name was a pseudonym for him.'
