Another day, another major media error regarding a potential witness from Kavanaugh's Georgetown Prep days?

We’re starting to see libs react to this post from Raw Story that quotes a “former Georgetown Prep classmate” of both Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge who wrote on Facebook, “the story that this woman is telling is one that I know was repeated dozens of times in my 4 years at Prep.”

That would be pretty damning if Eric Ruyak, the Georgetown Prep graduate who wrote the Facebook post quoted below, and Kavanaugh were actually classmates. But they’re not, so at the very least this headline is incorrect:

Former Georgetown Prep classmate calls Kavanaugh accusations ‘story I know was repeated dozens of times’ https://t.co/8bbQkuC4ty

Kavanaugh graduated from Georgetown Prep in 1983. We don’t know when Ruyak graduated, but we do know that he was at Georgetown Prep in 2002 when he was molested by a priest at the school. From the Washington Post:

Eric Ruyak, who was groped by Orr in 2002, and his father said in interviews that they were disappointed with how certain officials at the school reacted when he came forward. The Washington Post does not typically identify abuse victims, but Ruyak agreed to be identified.

It looks like Raw Story took what Ruyak wrote out of context to make it sound like Ruyak had heard the story about Kavanaugh and his accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, “dozens of times in my 4 years at Prep.”
