moms gather in front of Christine Blasey Ford's home and chant support

A group of two dozen people gathered in the driveway of Christine Blasey Ford's Palo Alto home Thursday to show support for the professor who says she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

The Mercury News reported the group of mostly moms and a few men linked arms and chanted "Protect Christine! Protect Christine."

"We've got her back," Jamie Barnett told CBS San Francisco. "Her story is our story. She's one of us."

Ford emerged in the public eye when she accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her while he was drunk at a high school party in the early 1980s.

Her quiet life as a psychology professor in Palo Alto has been turned upside down since going public with her story.
