New York prosecutors reopen investigation into alleged rape at Cornell University

New York prosecutors have reopened an investigation into allegations that a former Cornell University student was sexually assaulted by several men at a campus fraternity house in 2024. The case was revived after the victim filed a lawsuit against the university and other parties. While Cornell previously conducted its own internal investigation resulting in student suspensions and expulsions, no criminal charges were initially filed. The reopened probe now examines the reported gang rape claims further.
