Julie Swetnick, the third woman to accuse Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, was accused of domestic violence by a former boyfriend in 2001, according to Florida court records.

Swetnick’s former boyfriend, Richard Vinneccy, told Politico they dated for four years before breaking up, at which point Swetnick threatened violence against him and his family. The restraining order, filed in Miami-Dade, Fla. on March 1, 2001, was dismissed thirteen days later.

“Right after I broke up with her, she was threatening my family, threatening my wife and threatening to do harm to my baby at that time,” Vinneccy said. “I know a lot about her.”

“She’s not credible at all,” he said, referencing Swetnick’s Wednesday allegation that Kavanaugh was“present” when she was gang raped in high school. “Not at all.”

The headline says served. The article says flied for and dismissed. Why it is so difficulty to discern what really happened from news articles?

FAKE.
It was a foreclosure settled favorably for Ford’s parents. Judge “Martha Kavanaugh, granted a motion voluntarily dismissing the foreclosure action, which was a favorable ruling for the Blasey.”

On Monday, a fringe right-wing site wrote a short and thinly reported story about the fact that Brett Kavanaugh’s mother, Martha, a Maryland state judge, was involved in a foreclosure case brought against Ford’s parents.

The story was promoted perhaps most widely by Fox News host Laura Ingraham on Twitter and was shared in pro-Trump and far-right circles on social media. Though it was not explicitly stated, the subtext of the story was clear: that Ford was perhaps not motivated by the truth but by some personal vendetta.

“You literally cannot make this up,” wrote the site America First Media Group, which is perhaps most well-known for being named in a defamation lawsuit filed by the brother of slain DNC staffer Seth Rich.

The Daily Caller [picked up the storyater in the day but added important context, namely that Martha Kavanaugh’s involvement was “minimal”; she did not rule on the decisions about the possible seizure of the property but instead granted an uncontested motion to have the case dismissed after the two parties reached a settlement, the Daily Caller reported.

“Our client had no knowledge of this foreclosure action until the press began reporting on it today,” Ford’s lawyers at the firm Katz, Marshall and Banks said in a statement. “Based on a review of the court records, this was a foreclosure case involving property owned by Ralph and Paula Blasey, which involved at least two judges from the Circuit Court for Montgomery County. One of those judges, Martha Kavanaugh, granted a motion voluntarily dismissing the foreclosure action, which was a favorable ruling for the Blaseys. The foreclosure action did not affect the Blaseys’ ownership interest in this property.”

Why it is so difficult to get to the real facts?
