When Senators Susan Collins and Joe Manchin both announced they would vote yes for Brett Kavanaugh they said they believed something happened to Christine Blasey Ford, but not at the hands of the Supreme Court nominee. This obviously isn’t sitting well with those who know Ford. Her sister-in-law told CNN:

“I think they’re saying –I think they’re saying, gee, she looks credible, but we can’t really believe that the man we like would do this. so, therefore, it’s not valid, you know, it’s not valid that it was him, even though that type of memory does not get mistaken, does not go away.”

“I think that Chrissy is probably feeling retraumatized by not being taken more seriously, and I know many other survivors are being retraumatized and I think that it more than ever, we just have to keep speaking out.” 

Her attorneys, Lisa Banks, and Debra Katz, also joined Anderson Cooper saying:

“I don’t think she has any regrets. I think she feels she did the right thing and this was what she wanted to do. Provide this information to the committee so they could make the best decision possible. and I think she still feels that was the right thing to do. I don’t think she has any regrets.” 

Watch what else they had to say above.
