Montgomery Co. Police: No Complaint Yet Filed Against Kavanaugh

Montgomery County police say they are ready to investigate any criminal sexual assault alleged to have involved Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

The statement was released Monday, following a fourth allegation against the Supreme Court nominee. The Sentinel reports Montgomery County investigators were looking into allegations against Kavanaugh during his senior year in high school.

However, police said in a statement that they've received no request from an alleged victim or their attorney and asked anyone who believes they were a victim of sexual assault to come forward. The Sentinel reports State's Attorney John McCarthy said this weekend he would direct police to investigate any complaint brought against Kavanaugh, but that no complaint had been filed with his office.

"The Department recognizes that victims of sexual assault may not want to involve law enforcement and/or initiate a criminal investigation, and we respect that position. The Department, however, stands prepared to assist anyone who reports being the victim of a sexual assault," police said. "Typically, in a sexual assault case, the cooperation of the victim or witnesses is necessary. As with any criminal investigation, a determination must be made as to the jurisdiction where the alleged offense occurred and the specific details of the event to establish a potential criminal charge."

Kavanaugh has denied any wrongdoing. Over the weekend, Deborah Ramirez, a Yale classmate, accused Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her. The first accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, is due to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday.

Gov. Larry Hogan on Friday rebuffed a request from state Sen. Cheryl Kagan, a Montgomery County Democrat, to put state troopers on the case, The Baltimore Sun reports.
