Emma Brown writes today in the Washington Post about the groping incident involving Bret Kavanaugh when he was a high school student.

...She married her husband in 2002. Early in their relationship, she told him she had been a victim of physical abuse, he said. A decade later, he learned the details of that alleged abuse when the therapist asked her to tell the story, he said.
