Details emerge in case of former Cornell student alleging gang rape by fraternity members

New details are emerging in the case of a former Cornell University student who claims she was allegedly drugged and gang-raped for multiple hours inside a fraternity house in October 2024.

The woman — identified only as Jane Doe, who was 20 at the time of the alleged incident — recently filed a civil lawsuit against seven then-Chi Phi fraternity members and the university, claiming they failed to protect her and prevent the alleged assault. While Cornell conducted an internal investigation, no criminal charges were brought against the accused at the time.
