“I am questioning whether Jackie even exists.”

“Jackie” may be about as real as Lena Dunham’s “Barry”.

I love this part from the WaPo’s interview with Jackie:

“He never said he was in Phi Psi,” she said, while noting that she was positive that the date function and attack occurred at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house on Sept. 28, 2012. “I know it was Phi Psi because a year afterward my friend pointed out the building to me and said that’s where it happened.”

Her friend pointed out the Phi Psi building to her a year later, and told HER that’s where it happened? How did her friend know?

“”The fraternity members say that several important elements of the allegations were false.””

No one finds that a ludicrous statement? What would important elements be in a story that is false to begin with?

If there are not major libel suits from this then there is no such thing as libel. The frat should get all the millions they can from Rolling Stone ... then throw a REAL beer party!

I think she meant “That’s where I met them afterwards”.

I suspect she got roofied and went haywire.

“Despite doubts that have been cast on the Rolling Stone story, we need to keep our eyes on the prize, which is nothing less than zero tolerance for rape,” Dragas said.

How about a zero tolerance for false accusations of rape?

Another make-believe progressive fantasy crashes and burns like the Hindenburg. Oh the humanity.

Excellent.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure Jackie is delusional. The WaPo article makes me think that girl should be in the loony bin. Her “facts” don’t check out, but she’s sticking by her story? I bet she would change her tune in a courtroom.
