The picture of a young man with an aggressive, sexually-frustrated personality when extremely drunk does seem to check all the boxes.

Otherwise a nice enough guy who struggled to get a date. But finally found a wife, settled down, and found his better nature in a stable form.

Stepping aside for the greater good, with a statement of regret about things he has no memory of and of support for women's safety, would be a constructive outcome. Or at least, the most constructive one available.

and reiterates K's extreme drinking, which is the fertile soil for his other (possibly completely forgotten) behaviour.

"When Debbie Ramirez came forward with her account of a drunken college-aged Brett Kavanaugh disrobing in front of her in the common space of a Yale facility, she was stepping bravely into the maelstrom of Republican misogynistic hypocrisy. But she was also opening up the gates to true inspiration and support. Now, Brett Kavanaugh’s first year roommate—James Roche—has released a statement about the character of the two parties involved.

In it he provides yet another account of Kavanaugh’s excessive drinking that was noticeable “even by the standards of the time.” Roche says he became friends with Debbie, who felt out of place amongst the wealthy types like Kavanaugh, but tried hard to be friendly and get along with everyone. And while Roche says he was not present during the incident that Ramirez has told the press, he does not doubt it.

"Based on my time with Debbie, I believe her to be unusually honest and straightforward and I cannot imagine her making this up."

"Based on my time with Brett, I believe that he and his social circle were capable of the actions that Debbie described.""
