If Christine Ford is lying, what could her motivation possibly be?

There's a possibility that it is some sort of delusion or false memory. She was drunk, by her own admission. But what could her motivation be? She has already gotten death threats, and has really put herself on the line.

Personally I think she's telling the truth, or believes she is telling the truth. But other than that she would have had to have been bribed, blackmailed, or have a pathological hatred for Kavanaugh. That's all I can think of anyway.

Added (1). Here's the letter she wrote

Fords lawyer says there's no way 4th witness Ms. Keyser could possibly remember a party 36 years ago. But Ford can remember the party?

Thoughts?

In an email to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Saturday, Leland Ingham Keyser, a former classmate of Ford's at the Holton-Arms all-girls school in Maryland, said she doesn't know Kavanaugh or remember being at the party with him.

"Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford," lawyer Howard J. Walsh III of Bethesda, Md., conveyed in an email to the committee.

In response, Ford's lawyer Debra Katz said: "As Dr. Ford has said, she did not share her story publicly or with anyone for years following the incident with Judge Kavanaugh.

"It's not surprising that Ms. Keyser has no recollection of the evening as they did not discuss it. It's also unremarkable that Ms. Keyser does not remember attending a specific gathering 30 years ago at which nothing of consequence happened to her. Dr. Ford of course will never forget this gathering because of what happened to her there."

Added (1). DW- isn't it also plausible that she is making it up?

Added (2). DW- if you saw someone attack one of your friends in the way Ford describe wouldn't you remember it? I sure would.
