据美国有线电视新闻网周四报道，纽约州总检察长莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯的办公室将审查康奈尔大学针对一名学生指控七名“Chi Phi”兄弟会成员性侵事件的应对措施。该学生于9月份对这些男子提起民事诉讼，指控他们在她无法表达同意意愿的情况下实施了性侵行为，并指出了校方对此案的处理方式。
The office of New York Attorney-General Letitia James is set to review Cornell University's response to rape allegations made by a student against seven Chi Phi fraternity house members, CNN reported on Thursday. The student filed a civil lawsuit against the men in September, accusing them of participating in an assault while she was unable to consent and noting the university's response to the case.
据报道，汤普金斯县地方检察官办公室周一表示，在“社区民众要求重新考虑是否对这七名兄弟会成员提起刑事指控”后，该案得以重新立案。报道援引县地方检察官马修·范霍滕的话称，为保护身份隐私，该学生被称为“简·多伊”；她在2024年并未向康奈尔大学警方透露某些关键指控内容，因此最初并未对这些男子提出刑事指控。
According to the report, the case was reopened after the Tompkins County District Attorney's Office was “asked by the community to revisit the decision whether to pursue criminal charges against the seven fraternity members,” the office said on Monday. The report cited County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten, who said the student, identified as "Jane Doe" to protect her identity, did not share certain key allegations with Cornell police in 2024, so no initial criminal charges were filed against the men.
据《华盛顿邮报》报道，周五，纽约州州长凯西·霍楚尔与莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯共同召开了新闻发布会。霍楚尔于周四任命詹姆斯为该案的特别检察官。霍楚尔在会上表示：“这位年轻女子已经遭受了难以言喻的创伤，然而在每一个环节，那些本应保护她的人员与机构却都让她失望了。”
On Friday, New York Governor Kathy Hochul held a press conference on the subject alongside James, whom Hochul appointed on Thursday as special prosecutor on the case, The Washington Post reported.“This young woman had already endured something that is utterly unspeakable," said Hochul. "And then, at every turn, she was failed by people and institutions with an obligation to protect her.”
范霍滕对霍楚尔任命詹姆斯为特别检察官的决定表示支持。据《华盛顿邮报》报道，范霍滕周五称：“我坚信她会仔细核查事实并严格依法办事。”他还指出：“显而易见，校方并未向我们提供全部实情。”
Van Houten supports Hochul's appointment of James as special prosecutorJames's appointment as special prosecutor was supported by Van Houten, according to the Washington Post, saying on Friday that he "trusts that she will examine the facts and apply the law."" It has become clear that we were not provided the full picture by the University," he said.
“我们的关注点始终应该是受害者，今后也应如此。”周四，《华盛顿邮报》援引最新公开的纽约法院文件报道称，康奈尔大学针对该案件展开了内部纪律调查，对32名证人进行了50多次询问。文件显示，在原告多伊提起的诉讼中，其中一名被告正试图推翻针对他的纪律处分决定，以洗清自己的学术记录污点。
"The focus has been and should continue to be on the victims."A Washington Post report on Thursday cited newly unsealed New York court documents showing that Cornell University conducted an internal disciplinary investigation involving more than 50 interviews with 32 witnesses on the case. According to the documents, one of the men accused in the lawsuit filed by Doe is pushing to have the disciplinary action against him overturned to clear his academic record.CBS releases messages sent between victim, defendantThe report followed a CBS News release of message screenshots between a former Cornell student and one of the defendants, allegedly from two days following the assault.
此前，CBS新闻公布了受害者与被告之间的聊天记录截图。这些记录据称是发生在袭击事件两天后，由一名前康奈尔大学学生与其中一名被告所发。据CBS报道，聊天开始时，该男子就“事情的发展过程”向多伊道歉，并称自己的记忆“有些模糊”；他还表示，他和另一名男子因喝得酩酊大醉，没能及时制止事态升级，对此深感愧疚。
According to CBS, the messages begin with the man apologizing to Doe for "how things went down," noting that his memory is "kinda fuzzy," and that he and another man felt bad for being too intoxicated to "shut it down and kick people out before it got way out of hand."
多伊回复称自己的记忆也“非常模糊”，当时所有人都喝醉了；她还称“那些性行为都不算违法”，并表示自己其实很享受与该男子及另一名男子相处的时光。据CBS报道，她后来还提议三人再一起抽烟，“不过最好把另外50亿个男人和氯胺酮都排除在外”。本文由米里亚姆·塞拉-艾塔姆与路透社共同供稿。
Doe responded that her memory was "super clouded too," and that they had all been intoxicated, adding that "non(e) of the sexual stuff was illegal," and that she reportedly enjoyed being with him and another man. She later suggested the three of them smoke together again, "but like leave out the extra 5 billion men and ketamine," CBS reported. Miriam Sela-Eitam and Reuters contributed to this report.
