A conservative group plans to launch a new ad campaign to defend Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh from allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman while in high school.

The Judicial Crisis Network said it will put $1.5 million behind a television ad blitz that features a person who has been friends with Kavanaugh for 35 years.

"We are not going to allow a last-minute smear campaign destroy a good and decent man who has an unblemished personal record," said a spokesperson for the group.

The group, which has already pledged to spend $5 million backing Kavanaugh, did not name the person who will appear in the ad.

The announcement comes as Kavanaugh's nomination has been thrown into peril by the assault charges, which took on new life Sunday when the accuser came forward.
