Emily Renda, U.Va.’s project coordinator for sexual misconduct, policy and prevention, and a member of the governor’s Task Force on Combating Campus Sexual Violence, said she didn’t question Jackie’s credibility because that wasn’t her role. Renda knows Jackie and also was interviewed for the Rolling Stone article.
“Rolling Stone played adjudicator, investigator and advocate - and did a slipshod job at that,” added Renda, a May graduate who said she was raped her freshman year at the school. “As a result Jackie suffers, the young men in Phi Kappa Psi suffered, and survivors everywhere can unfairly be called into question.”
The gall, she told the same story before congress months earlier.
Translation: Emily Renda, U.Va.s project coordinator for sexual misconduct, policy and prevention, and a member of the governors Task Force on Combating Campus Sexual Violence, said she didnt question Jackies credibility because it fit The Narrative so beautifully.
Renda, in interviews reported December 7.
On NPR:
“So through none of this process have I ever disbelieved Jackie. “
In the Washington Post:
“I dont even know what I believe at this point.”
