A new documentary looking into the sexual misconduct allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh debuted Friday at the Sundance Film Festival to a sold-out theater surrounded by armed guards.
PARK CITY — A new documentary looks into the sexual misconduct allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and raises questions about the depth of the FBI investigation in 2018.
The Stier report was previously detailed in 2019 by New York Times reporters Robin Pogebrin and Kate Kelly as part of their book "The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation." But the details of it came under scrutiny.
"Justice" is especially critical of the FBI investigation that took place after the hearings. Through FOIA requests the filmmakers found that there were some 4,500 tips sent to the tip line that went uninvestigated. In a Q&A after the film, Liman said he was simply outraged after watching her testimony in 2018. The making of the film, which they self-financed, was shrouded in secrecy. Everyone signed nondisclosure agreements, Liman said, and they even had code names for those who agreed to participate. He said that people are "terrified" and that those who came forward are "heroes."
