New York prosecutors reopen criminal probe into 2024 Cornell fraternity gang rape case
New York prosecutors have reopened a criminal investigation into allegations that a Cornell University student was drugged with ketamine and gang-raped by seven men at the Chi Phi fraternity house in October 2024. The case was reopened after the accuser, identified as Jane Doe, filed a civil lawsuit against the university. Governor Kathy Hochul appointed Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor, citing failures by local authorities. The accused men deny the allegations, with varying accounts of the night.
