Sarah Hyland Says She Was Sexually Assaulted by a Friend in High School
The Modern Family star tweeted a statement on Thursday as Dr. Christine Blasey Ford gave her emotional testimony against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings.
β#whyididntreport,β she began. βHe was a friend. It was New Yearβs Eve my senior year of high school. Everyone was drunk. He broke in to the bathroom I was in. I hoped it was a dream but my ripped tights in the morning proved otherwise. I thought no one would believe me. I didnβt want to be called dramatic. After all I didnβt say no. Shock can do that to a person. #believewomen #metoo #ibelieveher.β
Hyland attended the Professional Performing Arts School in New York City.
In a second tweet, Hyland, 27, expressed her support for Ford, who has accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her at a high school party in 1982, as well as Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick, who have both accused Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. Kavanaugh has denied all the claims.
βI believe Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. I believe Deborah Ramirez. I believe Julie Swetnick,β she wrote. βThere is no path forward for Judge Brett Kavanaugh. #BelieveSurvivors #TIMESUP.β
