She's a law professor. Has never met Mueller. Doesn't know why they approached her. She had published an op ed about Kavenaugh, but she said she's the last person they should have tried. She sent it all to Mueller.

FBI notified of alleged scheme to pay women for false allegations against him

“When we learned last week of allegations that women were offered money to make false claims about the Special Counsel, we immediately referred the matter to the FBI for investigation,” special counsel spokesman Peter Carr said in a statement to Fox News, without offering specifics.

According to The Atlantic, Mueller’s office said the scheme was brought to its attention by journalists after a woman told them she had been offered $20,000 by GOP activist Jack Burkman “to make accusations of sexual misconduct and workplace harassment against Robert Mueller.”

Burkman, a conservative radio host and a lobbyist, is a controversial figure for having launched his own investigation into the murder of former DNC staffer Seth Rich in 2016.

been desperate enough, i.e., broke, sick, etc., one of the them might have bitten. That's what these ratfuckers count on, hitting just one or two who are so needy they take the bait. They research; the one women said the dude knew to the dollar what her debts were. God I despise these Dumpers.
