Maryland authorities say they'll investigate Kavanaugh -- if a victim files a complaint

Authorities in Maryland on Friday said they were prepared to conduct a state-level criminal investigation into sexual assault allegations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh -- provided that a victim comes forward.

The disclosure by Montgomery County Police Chief J. Thomas Manger and Montgomery County State’s Attorney John McCarthy came Friday, the same day that President Trump ordered the FBI to conduct a limited "supplemental" investigation.

But Manger and McCarthy noted that prosecution was unlikely in Maryland because authorities would have to apply the law that existed at the time of the offense, not the law that exists now, Baltimore's FOX 45 News reported.

“For example, in 1982, assault and attempted rape were both misdemeanors and subject to a one-year statute of limitations,” they wrote.

But they added: “The Montgomery County Police Department and the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office stand ready to investigate any sexual assault allegation from any victim where the incident occurred in our jurisdiction.”

They said a victim would have to file a complaint to trigger an inquiry, the Baltimore Sun reported.

“To date, there have been no criminal reports filed with the Montgomery County Department of Police that would lead to the initiation of any criminal investigation related to Judge Kavanaugh,” they wrote.

Earlier this week, a group of Maryland lawmakers, all Democrats, called for the state to conduct its own criminal investigation into decades-old sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh, Trump's pick to fill the U.S. Supreme Court seat vacated by the retired Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy.

In their letter Tuesday, the Democrats said they were writing to “express our concern about the need for an investigation into recent high-profile allegations of sex assault in our county. ... We believe local law enforcement has the authority to investigate allegations of crimes without need for a formal complaint, and we further believe third parties have standing to bring such complaints.”

After dragging his name through the mud, the left fault Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh for defending himself; reaction from progressive radio host Chris Hahn.

Kavanaugh was accused by Christine Blasey Ford of sexually assaulting her at a party in Montgomery County in the early 1980s.

Kavanaugh and Ford both testified at a Senate hearing Thursday where he denied the allegations. He faces multiple allegations of sexual misconduct while in high school.

Trump and Republicans have repeatedly backed Kavanaugh and blame Democrats for working to destroy a “wonderful man.”

I hope Fox News Judge Napolitano reads this article because he's been spewing falsehoods about Maryland not having a statute of limitations on this for at least 2 weeks. Shame on you, Napolitano, you spread a lie, that lie can bite you back, and make you look stupid. See the United States protects citizens from ex post facto, which is prosecuting people for laws that were not effect at the time of the action.

The republicans had better INVESTIGATE her background and get it done quickly. Provide copies of HER yearbook.

Provide a FLOW CHART and PICTURES showing her and her families ties to Fusion GPS, to Clinton, to Feinstein, her mother whose house foreclosed that Kavanaugh's mother presided on, to the Pharmaceutical company with the abortion pill, HER affiliation with Soros funded organization. I thought I her one of her family members married to a Soros relative? And then HER admittance to Google employees that go to her house and hence the "two doors" she needed!!!

Dig deep into her family tree and her friends.

Send everything we have to Tucker Carlson and let him blow this WIDE open!

Dr. Ford is no innocent angel. She was not kissed nor was she raped by Judge K.

They are making him and his friends out to be drinking, vomiting, gang rapists who wrote stupid stuff in their yearbooks.
