Castro calls for latest claim against Kavanaugh to be investigated

Former Housing Secretary Julián Castro said Saturday that a newly-reported allegation of unwanted sexual contact against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh should be investigated.

In a tweet, Castro said that nonprofit owner Max Stier's allegation that Kavanaugh exposed himself at a party before other students pressed him against a female student, forcing his genitals to come in contact with her hand, should be investigated.

"Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation is a shame to the Supreme Court. This latest allegation of assault must be investigated," he tweeted.

Stier's allegation, which was reportedly supplied to the FBI in 2018 during Kavanaugh's confirmation process but was never investigated, first appeared publicly in the New York Times on Saturday.

Stier has never spoken publicly about his accusation, which was corroborated to the Times by U.S. officials familiar with the report.
