“Seven men drugged and gang raped a 20-year-old woman.” That verdict in the alleged Cornell rape case was delivered by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who has joined a chorus of others in pronouncing the guilt of Cornell students accused of raping a fellow student.
Mind you, not a single witness has testified under oath publicly and not a single charge has been brought. However, guilt is now being collectively declared from the usual figures and outlets who have never been late to mob justice.
Ocasio-Cortez declared, “I want to be clear that the culture of rape, sexual assault, and pedophilia is protected in elite institutions across the United States and including Cornell University in this instance. It has got to stop.”
We have been here before. Twenty years ago, Duke students were accused of gang raping a stripper at a campus party. The media quickly lionized Durham District Attorney Michael B. Nifong as he pandered to the media in portraying the students as personifying a racist rape culture in the United States.
The problem is that, from the start, the facts did not fit the allegations and there was a total lack of forensic evidence to support the claim. Crystal Mangum later admitted that she had lied.
Nifong was disbarred and Mangum, who was still not prosecuted for lying about these students, later went to jail for murder.
All the politicians and pundits who declared the Duke students guilty simply shrugged and moved on to the next scandal, demanding instant, uninformed judgments.
Conflicts in testimony, as there is in the Cornell case, does not mean that there was no rape. Indeed, this is a stronger case than Duke in my view. However, there...

I smell a Nifong.
This is a disgrace to the law and justice system. It was all consensual.
Duke Lacrosse II
She doesn’t have to get to the bottom of anything.
She’s not a criminal prosecutor, she’s a political persecutor.
She’ll manufacture anything she needs to, just like w/Trump.
My immediate comment on this: Is Nifong available for James to hire to help with the prosecution?
I said the same exact thing on a thread yesterday.
The only difference is the Duke guys were completely innocent.
There are no innocent people in the Cornell case, “perps” or “victim.”
“Lynchin’ Tish”
Is occasional cortex confirming the existence of Pizza Gate in her rant on elite institutions? Would that also include Congress?
Hochul is such a complete idiot it’s no wonder she tapped Tisha’ for the job.
She’s not there to get to the bottom of it, she is communist operative there to perpetuate the racist communist op
It’s entertaining to listen to Megyn Kelly about Lynchin’ Tish and her GirlBoss “Railroad Karen” Hochul.
Jane Hoe was “stunning and brave” as she bravely spread her legs for the guys at Whornell.
all it takes for evil to progress is for good men to do nothing...and here we are..
this case is not complex ...
Nifong is warming up in the bullcrap pen to come in as a reliever for “Lynchin’ Tish”, the lawbreaking ghettopotamus demagogue.
Letitia James is absolutely wrong person to [ FILL-IN-THE-BLANK ]
Tawanna Brawley.
Nah, not racist Letty James. She’s too political partisan. She’ll comply with whatever her allies want the verdict to be. She’s not impartial.
A good apparatchik.
I'd love to see her financials, the real ones, ever since she ran against Trump as a NYC prosecutor promising to 'take him down'. Big Fails.
How on earth did NY Gov Hochul decide to appoint the most failed prosecutor in NYC history as a "special prosecutor"???
