Gov. Kathy Hochul appointed Letitia James, the attorney general, to investigate the original allegations and why a police report omitted crucial information.

Gov. Kathy Hochul has appointed the New York attorney general, Letitia James, to lead an investigation into allegations that a woman was raped on campus in 2024.

Experts in sexual assault cases said it may not be easy to win a conviction on the rape allegations that Jane Doe has made against fraternity members.

A panel found the man responsible for attempted sexual exploitation, barred him from contact with the woman and required him to take a class and write a paper.

Gov. Kathy Hochul appointed the state attorney general to investigate a former Cornell University student’s allegation of rape. The woman has sued seven men in connection with the alleged assault.

Through tears, some students shared stories of assaults they had experienced, while others spoke out to criticize administrators and demand improved training on consent.

Accusations that Cornell University students assaulted a woman while she was impaired have renewed calls to amend the law.

More than 1,000 pages of documents obtained by The New York Times show how a woman identified as Jane Doe gradually concluded that what had happened to her at a fraternity party was a crime.

Many alumni and some prospective parents are rethinking their relationships with Cornell. But as one admissions consultant said, “Prestige is a powerful draw.”

The university and law enforcement officials are under growing pressure to explain how they handled a woman’s initial claims of being assaulted by a group of students.
