New York reopens investigation into alleged assault by seven Cornell students
New York prosecutors have reopened the investigation into allegations that seven Cornell students sexually assaulted a woman in 2024, after the accuser filed a civil lawsuit last month. The case is now headed toward possible grand-jury review instead of remaining stalled.
• Seven students are named in the allegations.
• The students were members of Cornell’s Chi Phi fraternity.
• An alleged Snapchat group included roughly 50 fraternity members and messages tied to the case.
Cornell has agreed to an independent review of how it handled the allegations after Gov. Kathy Hochul demanded accountability. Prosecutors are preparing to bring the case before a grand jury.
