US prosecutors reopen Cornell gang rape investigation tied to Chi Phi claims
US prosecutors reopened an investigation into an alleged gang rape at Cornell University, after allegations that the university failed to properly punish those involved.
According to the provided account, the alleged victim said in a civil lawsuit this month that she was drugged with ketamine and assaulted and raped in 2024 by seven members of the Chi Phi fraternity.
The university, the material says, closed the fraternity and temporarily suspended the students involved, and several were later expelled.
The newly released details, the outlet writes, have renewed allegations that Cornell was too lenient and reignited debate over sexual assault on US campuses.
