Cornell police omitted key information in a 2024 rape-case statement, new reporting finds
There are new revelations about how authorities handled an alleged gang rape at Cornell University in 2024. New reporting cited by PBS NewsHour found that Cornell police left out key information from a statement given to local law enforcement — including the accuser's own account, in which she said she was certain she had been raped. The scrutiny now falls on what one agency told another, not only on the original allegation.
