An Emerging Portrait of a Student 'Frequently Unusually Drunk'.

The article reports on the alleged practice of heavy drinking by Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh, a nominee to the U.S. Supreme Court, when he was a teenager in the 1980s. According to psychologist Christine Blasey Ford, Kavanaugh was drunk as a 17-year-old student when he tried to force himself on her during a party in 1982. A former classmate named Deborah Ramirez accused Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her. The judge has denied both allegations as the process of his confirmation proceeds.
