WASHINGTON – As FBI investigators look into sexual misconduct allegations against Brett Kavanaugh by Christine Blasey Ford and Deborah Ramirez, they have not contacted accuser Julie Swetnick, whom GOP leaders denounce as not credible.

Swetnick's attorney, Michael Avenatti, complained Monday on Twitter that his client still had not heard from FBI agents.

"It is outrageous that my client has not been contacted by the FBI because Trump is instructing them not to," Avenatti wrote. "He is trying to ram through a nomination by purposely preventing the truth from being known."

In a sworn statement released last week, Swetnick alleged that she witnessed attempts by Kavanaugh and his Georgetown Preparatory School classmate, Mark Judge, to get teenage girls "inebriated and disoriented so they could then be 'gang raped' in a side room or bedroom by a 'train' of numerous boys."

Swetnick said she was a victim of one of the gang rapes, but she did not allege that Kavanaugh or Judge attacked her. Kavanaugh has flatly denied the allegations and said he doesn't know Swetnick.

White House officials said Sunday that President Donald Trump is not interfering with the FBI's re-opened background investigation of Kavanaugh. The president ordered the investigation after Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said he would only vote to advance Kavanaugh's nomination out of the Senate Judiciary Committee last Friday if the FBI conducted a week-long probe.

However, Democrats have complained that the White House is trying to narrow the scope of the investigation to tilt the results in Kavanaugh's favor.

On Sunday, the Senate Republican Communications Center, which is directed by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., put out a long list of accusations against Swetnick under the headline: "Julie Swetnick: 'She’s Not Credible At All.'"

The long press release lists accusations against Swetnick that Republicans say have damaged her credibility, including a defamation lawsuit filed against her in Oregon in 2000 for alleging lying about being sexually harassed at work while engaging in "unwelcome, sexually offensive conduct" toward two male co-workers. The release also describes a temporary restraining order obtained against Swetnick in 2001 by an ex-boyfriend in Florida, who alleged that she threatened him and his wife and baby.

Avenatti has blasted the allegations against Swetnick as nonsense, noting that both cases against her were dismissed in court.

Avenatti said Monday on Twitter that he tried to take Swetnick to the FBI to provide testimony, but "they claim they don't have jurisdiction and they refuse to take a statement."

FBI agents have contacted Ramirez, her attorney told USA TODAY. Ramirez alleges that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her and shoved his penis in her face at a dorm party while they were both students at Yale University. Kavanaugh has denied the allegation.

The FBI also is investigating Ford's allegation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a high school house party in 1982 when she was 15 and he was 17. Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee last Thursday that Kavanaugh pinned her down on a bed and tried to remove her clothes while holding his hand over her mouth to prevent her from screaming.

Ford said that Judge was in the room watching and laughing, and that she was able to break free and run to the bathroom after Judge jumped on them and knocked them off the bed.

Kavanaugh angrily denied the accusation at the same hearing. Judge said in a public statement that he didn't recall the incident. He has promised to cooperate with the FBI.

On Monday, Ford's lawyers told USA TODAY that they had not been contacted by the FBI since Friday's announcement of the probe.
