Man found not responsible for rape blasts Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand for 'harassment campaign'
Washington Examiner ^ | January 21, 2015 | Ashe Schow

Posted on 01/22/2015 11:44:11 AM PST by rickyrikardo

Paul Nungesser was found “not responsible” for sexually assaulting another student at Columbia University. The student who accused him, Emma Sulkowicz, has since began carrying a mattress around the university as part of an art project to protest a finding she claims was unfair.

Sulkowicz’s activism earned her an invitation to President Obama’s State of the Union address Tuesday night from Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y. When Nungesser heard of the invitation, he blasted the senator for rewarding Sulkowicz’s attacks against him.

“I am shocked to learn that Sen. Gillibrand is actively supporting Ms. Sulkowicz’s defamation campaign against me by providing her with a public forum in which to broadcast her grave allegation,” Nungesser told New York Magazine on Tuesday. “By doing so, Sen. Gillibrand is participating in a harassment campaign against someone, who, for good reason, has been found innocent by all investigating bodies.”

Nungesser reminded people that the university, after a seven-month long investigation, found him not responsible in 2013 — even in the current atmosphere where colleges are encouraged to find students guilty to appease political interests. Nungesser also pointed out that he cooperated with police after Sulkowicz filed a report (after the university found him not responsible) and that prosecutors declined to pursue the case.

Dude. She said you raped her, and that’s that. Women don’t lie about these things, right?

And besides - she now carries a mattress.

A MATTRESS for crying out loud. How much more proof does anyone need?

Unfortunate Gillibrand can’t be sued as Senators are allowed to do stuff like that with legal immunity.

That mattress she’s carrying is full of jokes. Would somebody here please let some of them out?

Hmmm....”I’ll now demonstrate just how he had his way with me; I’ll set the mattress down here. Iphones ready? OK, here goes!”

How thoughtful of her. Now no one needs to bother taking her back to their dorm. She’s a totally self contained slut.

Her carrying around a mattress could be interpreted as sulking.

As I recall it, their senatorial immunity only applies to statements that are made on the Senate floor.

Looks like Salon.com should be the target of 2nd lawsuit.
