NY Reopens Cornell Group Rape Case After Two-Year Delay; Grand Jury Convened

A former Cornell student's lawsuit alleging drugging and sexual assault by seven Chi Phi fraternity members has prompted the Tompkins County District Attorney to bring the case before a grand jury after a two-year delay. The case highlights systemic failures in handling sexual assault allegations, with the DA's office facing scrutiny for the prolonged inaction. The grand jury's decision will determine whether criminal charges are filed, potentially setting a precedent for accountability in similar cases.
