~Pressure to corroborate Ford’s story also came from outside Keyser’s circle of friends. Sara Corcoran, a journalist who was several years behind Ford and Keyser at Holton-Arms, published an aggressive open letter that recounted the paralysis of Keyser’s high-school boyfriend, Bill, in the Columbia Country Club pool.
“I still remember the chaotic scene, the paramedics, and the shock of what happened. Our parents often warned us about diving into the shallow end or at any depth.” Corcoran continued: “It was incredibly unfair to both of you that Bill broke his neck and died shortly thereafter. You were an inspiration to those of us young members at the club and students at Holton-Arms School. I am asking you [to be] an inspiration to us again by coming to the defense of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford.”
Playing on the trauma and guilt she had tried to stir up, Corcoran went on, “I know it seems like it is easier to turn away and revisiting the past is never easy, but your statements harmed the validity of Dr. Ford. … There was nothing you could have done to save Bill from the fate that awaited him, but you can save Christine.”
