NEW: Christine Blasey Ford will be talking to F.B.I. in San Francisco this afternoon -- not about Kavanaugh (which they are not investigating) but about online and telephone death threats against her, per her lawyer Lisa Banks. https://t.co/5tHOywqNDF — Sheryl Gay Stolberg (@SherylNYT) September 21, 2018

Lisa Banks, a lawyer representing Ford, reportedly told the Times reporter that the FBI and Ford would not be discussing the allegations that she has made about Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

Ford's attorney, Debra Katz, told The Washington Post that the FBI contacted Ford with material about death threats. According to the paper, Katz explicitly requested the meeting not include discussions of Kavanaugh.

“This is strictly about the death threats she has been receiving,” Katz said.

Ford has accused Kavanaugh of pinning her down and trying to take off her clothes during a house party when they were both in high school in the early 1980s. Ford, who went public with her allegations in the Post on Sunday, also accused Kavanaugh of putting his hand over her mouth to prevent her from screaming.

Kavanaugh and the White House have denied the allegations.

This is a developing story.
