The U.S. Marshals Service is reportedly investigating threats sent to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s wife following allegations that her husband sexually assaulted a woman when he was in high school 35 years ago.
As the left rages on regarding unproven accusations that a then-17-year-old Kavanaugh once tried to rape Christine Blasey Ford at a party when the two were in high school, Kavanaugh’s wife, Ashley, has reported getting violent threats against her husband and her family, including one that suggested her husband shoot himself to death and another telling her family to "burn in hell."
The Wall Street Journal reports:
Separately, Judge Kavanaugh’s wife, Ashley Estes Kavanaugh, received violent threats this week following the allegations against her husband, a senior Trump administration official said Thursday. The U.S. Marshals Service is investigating the emails.
Mrs. Kavanaugh received two profane notes in her work email account in recent days, the official said. Both notes, which have been reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, were sent from the same email address.
Citing intelligence reports, the official said that “Threats, including to his (Judge Kavanaugh’s) wife, have risen this week.”
One note to Mrs. Kavanaugh, a town manager in the Washington, D.C. suburbs read, “May you, your husband and your kids burn in hell.”
The other, whose subject line reads, “Hi, Ashley,” said she should tell her husband to “put a bullet in his … skull.”
Ford, the woman who’s accused Kavanaugh of assaulting her some 35 years ago, has also reported getting threats since going public last weekend. Sen. Susan Collins, a Maine Republican who’s been critical of the 11th-hour accusations, has also received threatening messages.
