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, 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 in the weeks after the alleged assault, with members claiming the encounter was consensual.
  • Months later, Jane Doe testified before a Cornell panel, describing being "prostituted and held up like bait" and urging the university to "remove those boys from campus."
  • Cornell expelled two students and suspended two others following the allegations, measures reflecting broader scrutiny of the university's fraternity oversight and misconduct response.
  • 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.
