ICYMI, a district attorney in New York state is reopening the investigation of an alleged gang rape committed by Cornell University students two years ago, after the alleged victim filed a civil lawsuit against the university for negligence and failing to properly address sexual violence.

The woman involved, who has chosen to remain anonymous, admits to have voluntarily taken drugs and alcohol at the time. She apparently has no corroborating witnesses and no photographic or DNA evidence of being raped, so her case is "take my word for it".

But that hasn't stopped feminists from whining about "rape culture" and demanding that these seven men get the death penalty, as if "innocent until proven guilty" isn't a thing.

Sort of. Her own statements are going to be a problem proving rape 1, 2, or 3. It's easy to see why this case wasn't originally prosecuted. But that doesn't mean the boys involved have clean hands.

---

Which is why I'll wait until this all plays out, more information comes out, and other stuff our resident lawyers will be looking for, before I call the woman or the men liars.

I do wonder where the pressure came from to take this form of action. Unless the interwebs really are that powerful, a la Ed Sheeran and Macklemore.

Anyone see the interview with Jake Tapper and the DA? Man, Tapper was really railing into him. I felt kind of bad for him.

This was a tragic story with plenty of outright dumbassery shown by all parties involved. Not sure it crosses the line of illegal behavior though, at least not yet. Maybe some new details will come out later.

The accuser has apparently changed her story significantly from when it was first reported.

And that's going to be a problem.

Is "believe all women" even a thing anymore?

Liberals/Leftists are so whacked right now who knows what will happen. Everything appears to be upside down.

Apparently a woman can't do anything, up to and including murdering her own children, that will satiate liberal women from believing they're perpetual victims.

Thank you, Gloria Steinem

As I see it, her testimony immediately after the event should trump any new accusations she thinks of two years later.

She can file a civil suit with whatever she wants to throw against the wall. But the DA should have stayed away and just stood by his earlier finding not to prosecute. It's not like she discovered new evidence two years after the event.

Couple of these guys parents were clients of ours. Kids got paid. Not enough for what they went through, but they got paid.

I wonder if True Love Waits and similar initiatives have started using case studies like these in their materials to convince youth to stay abstinent til marriage.

Getting put on the house isn't a crime, just because you regret it the next day.

Never heard this wording, and I guess I'm glad.

Us Mississippi Delta folks have a very lengthy book of slang terms. This is a good'n.

Did she get pregnant after the rape and then strangle those kids a few years later. If so we know who is at fault.

Seriously - there were some times at A&M and Virginia Tech when i was with a very drunk girl - and there's no way I could imagine I would have done anything with her. The thought of it just makes my skin crawl.

No doubt these guys behavior was loathsome. But suddenly discovering new facts two years after the event? C'mon...

---

Yep, HUGE difference between had a few drinks and looking to have some fun, and sloppy drunk and not even fully in control.

I mean it sounds like the dudes were drunk too. So did she also rape them?

The double standard here is ridiculous.

Also once again Obama and his title IX kangaroo courts regarding on campus sexual assaults rears its ugly head again

---

I think it's disgusting to engage in group sex with a girl TBH. Or to take turns on her. Completely depraved and degenerate behavior, drunk or not.

But my point was just that the level of "drunk" does matter to me in cases like this. I remember me and a buddy having to baby sit a sh*tfaced girl one night back at A&M. She remembered almost nothing the next day and would have been pretty disturbed if we had told her how she was acting, what she was saying, that she vomited, that the just dropped her undies to pee in a somewhat public area.

Some perverts would see someone like that as a sexual target, an opportunity. Not at all saying that is what happened with these dudes, just that it happens. Best to not hook up with wasted girls that you don't know.

Guys getting too drunk and getting raped? LOL come on

If you ever want to really spin up a bunch of feminists, suggest a woman can rape a man.

Their heads split open and wild animals come running out.

There have been billions of people in existence, so I am not saying it has never happened, but a man getting raped by a woman is a hilarious concept. Funny to imagine. If it does happen, it's such a low rate of occurrence that it's statistically insignificant.

Statutory rape is a different story.
