Chris Garrett Denies Having Useful Information to the Inquiry.
Chris Garrett, who is also known as Christopher Garrett, released a statement through his lawyer on September 21, 2018.
The statement, as disseminated on Pr Newswire, reads as follows:.
Consistent with Dr.
Ford's own recent statement, Mr Garrett categorically denies the baseless and irresponsible suggestions and insinuations that he is somehow the subject of Dr.

Mr Garrett will not be making any further statements regarding this matter.
The statement was issued by William M.
Sullivan, Jr., partner, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, on behalf of his client Mr Christopher C.
Garrett.
According to the law firm's website, Sullivan is a partner specializing in Corporate Investigations & White Collar Defense who is based in Washington D.C.

Chris Garrett Was Named on Twitter by a GOP Lawyer, Who Later Apologized for the 'Mistake'.
The background context for the lawyer's statement: Garrett had been the subject of an unsupported, unproven theory peddled on social media by Ed Whelan, a GOP lawyer, blogger, and think tank president who is friends with Kavanaugh and was involved in the nomination process.
Whelan – who was derided by many on Twitter for identifying Garrett without proving his claim, later apologized, writing, "I made an appalling and inexcusable mistake of judgment in posting the tweet thread in a way that identified Kavanaugh's Georgetown Prep classmate.
I take full responsibility for that mistake, and I deeply apologize for it.
I realize that does not undo the mistake." Whelan is now on leave.
Ford previously released a statement to The Washington Post, responding to Whelan's claim.
Ford said, referring to the man identified by Whelan (Garrett) and Kavanaugh, "I knew them both, and socialized with" Garrett.
She told the Post she had visited the man named by Whelan in the hospital and added, "There is zero chance that I would confuse them." The story did not name Garrett, however.
Christine Blasey Ford Testified That She 'Went Out' With Chris Garrett in High School, Although She Didn't Use His Name.
Christine Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that she went out with Chris Garrett in high school.
Although she did not use his name purposefully to protect his privacy, the context with Whelan made it clear that the man she was referring to was Chris Garrett.
"He was somebody who, we use the phrase 'went out with,' I wouldn't say date, but went out with for a few months," she said, "and after that we were distant friends and ran into each other periodically.
Prosecutor Rachel Mitchell and Ford had an exchange about Chris Garrett during the hearing, although Ford did not use his name.
However, she made it clear she was talking about the person Whelan identified, and that person was Chris Garrett.
MITCHELL: OK.
You mentioned about some possible information, such as when Mark Judge worked at the supermarket.
I want to ask you about someone else.
You mentioned that there was a classmate who was really sort of the connection between you and Brett Kavanaugh.
Who was this person?.
FORD: I — I think that that case with Mr Whelan, who was looking at my LinkedIn page and then trying to blame the person, I just don't feel like it's right for us to be talking about that.
MITCHELL: I'm not trying to blame anybody, I just want to know who the common friend that you and….
FORD: The person that Mr Whelan was trying to say looked like Mr Kavanaugh.
MITCHELL: … OK.
How long did you know this person?.
FORD: Maybe for a couple of months we socialized, but he also was a member of the same country club and I know his younger brother as well.
MITCHELL: OK.
So a couple of months before this took place?.
FORD: Yes. MITCHELL: OK.
How would you characterize your relationship with him, both before and after this took place, this person?.
FORD: He was somebody that, we use the phrase, I went out with — I wouldn't say date — I went out with for a few months.
That was how we termed it at the time.
And after that we were distant friends and ran into each other periodically at Columbia Country Club, but I didn't see him often.
MITCHELL: OK.
FORD: But I saw his brother and him several times.
MITCHELL: Was this person the only common link between you and Mr — Judge Kavanaugh?.
FORD: He's the only one that I would be able to name right now — that I would like to not name, but you know who I mean.
And — but there are certainly other members of Columbia Country Club that were common friends or they were more acquaintances of mine and friends of Mr Kavanaugh.
Christine Blasey Ford Said the Same Man Introduced Her to Brett Kavanaugh.
Senator Patrick Leahy asked Ford whether she could have mistaken Kavanaugh for someone else.
In that exchange, she revealed that the person she says was falsely blamed was the same pesron who introduced her to both Brett Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge.
Ford has alleged that Kavanaugh and Judge were in the room when she says Kavanaugh groped her in the early 1980s without her consent.
Kavanaugh denies the accusation, and Judge has said he never saw Kavanaugh act as described and doesn't remember the party.
LEAHY: Now, how did you know Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge? And is it possible that you had mixed them up with somebody else?.
