Cornell Police Pressed Fraternity Members on How They Knew Alleged Sex Was 'Consensual'
Videos show campus police pressing fraternity members on how they knew the alleged encounter was consensual.
- Two investigations are underway into a former Cornell University student's 2024 rape allegations at a fraternity house, with one examining potential criminal charges and another reviewing the university's handling of the case.
- Newly obtained videos reviewed by ABC News show university police questioning Chi Phi fraternity members, who claimed the encounter was a "consensual thing," though officers expressed skepticism about how they could verify that assertion.
- Months later, Jane Doe testified before a Cornell panel, describing being "prostituted and held up like bait" and pleading with the university to "remove those boys from campus."
- Cornell expelled two students and suspended two others following the allegations, measures taken amid broader scrutiny of the university's fraternity oversight and response to sexual misconduct.
- Former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates will lead an independent review of Cornell's investigative processes, campus police response, and oversight of student organizations to address ongoing concerns.
