Anita Hill on Kavanaugh: 'Without an investigation, there cannot be an effective hearing'

With accusations against Brett Kavanaugh evoking memories of another Supreme Court confirmation battle, law professor and author Anita Hill says that a professional investigation is needed to ensure a fair hearing.
