A bar ethics complaint has been filed against New York Attorney General Letitia James for allegedly making prejudicial statements about the “Cornell 7” in the days before being appointed special prosecutor to look into criminal charges for the Ivy’s Chi Phi frat members, The Post has learned. Two days before she was appointed special prosecutor to reopen an investigation into a 2024 alleged gang rape at Cornell University’s Chi Phi house, James posted on social media: “What this young woman has been forced to endure is horrific and unacceptable.” “To her, and to all survivors: you’re not alone. We stand...

“Believe survivors,” the campus activists and leftist politicians admonish us. But which “survivor” statements are we supposed to believe?In the weeks following her alleged gang rape at a Cornell University frat house in 2024, “Jane Doe” was unequivocal: She had not been raped. A day after the incident, she texted one of her sex partners, saying “non (sic) of the sexual stuff was illegal and honestly I really liked being with u” — and she suggested another get-together. The next day she texted him again, including an affectionate note: “I luv you king.”She angled herself an invitation to the annual...

Students at Cornell University began what was billed as a seven-hour sit-in on Wednesday in solidarity with "Jane Doe," the former student who alleges she was drugged and raped by multiple members of a fraternity on its Ithaca, N.Y., campus in October 2024. "Seven hours for the seven hours she endured," a coalition of Cornell student groups said in an Instagram post announcing the demonstration. "Seven hours of solidarity. Seven hours demanding change."

Sally Yates, whose career in the Justice Department spanned about three decades, will lead an independent review on how Cornell University responds to sexual harassment, assault and misconduct on campus, the university announced Tuesday. The decision comes in the wake of national outrage over a former Cornell student’s allegation last month that she was gang-raped and plied with drugs at a fraternity in 2024. New York Attorney General Letitia James is also investigating the allegation. A spokesperson said staff members from the attorney general’s office have “spoken with the Tompkins County District Attorney, Jane Doe’s attorney, and several candidates for...

A gang rape allegation has been made. It must be investigated. Local authorities looked into it, and no charges were filed. Now, a couple of years later, a new civil suit has been filed, past documents have been reviewed again, and the victim's statement is entirely different. I’m talking about the Cornell gang rape allegation, where a Jane Doe alleges in October 2024 that she was gang raped at a fraternity party. And the legions who have gone deep into debt on worthless, fake woke degrees are having their day in the sun. There will be numerous hot takes, each...

A “Cornell 7” frat bro accused in the alleged gang-rape of a young woman claimed to campus cops that he was too wasted to consent to sex with her — suggesting he was the real victim, according to records. Matthew Ingalls — one of the seven Chi Phi fraternity brothers at the center of the explosive Ivy League case — told Cornell University police that he was the one too intoxicated from booze and ketamine to consent to sex that fateful 2024 night, records obtained by ABC News showed. Ingalls suggested that the alleged victim — a then-20-year-old student only...

After being mistakenly served a lawsuit meant for one of the suspects in the alleged 2024 gang rape at Cornell University, a U.S. Marine staff sergeant and his family are facing threats.

“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...

New York Attorney General Letitia James just became the face of the Cornell rape case. This is not going to end well. Gov. Kathy Hochul appointed James as special prosecutor in the Cornell University sexual assault investigation, effectively removing the case from Tompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten. “New reporting raises serious questions about the information his office relied upon when it made that decision,” Hochul said in announcing the move. James will now oversee the investigation and can present evidence to a grand jury and prosecute offenses if warranted. Whether or not we get justice in this disturbing...

About 20 states have laws that can make it difficult to prosecute sexual assault cases if accusers voluntarily drank or took drugs. As detailed allegations of a 2024 gang rape at Cornell University emerged last month, Summer Willis felt both horror and a sense of recognition. There were fraternity brothers exchanging vulgar messages about the accuser on Snapchat, echoing what Willis says happened after she herself was assaulted in 2014. And there was a district attorney saying on television that state law had made filing charges difficult or impossible, just as Willis had been told years ago. “I almost threw...

The Cornell University Gang Rape Story unraveled a little more Wednesday when additional text messages between the alleged victim (known only as Jane Doe) and one of the men she’s accusing of rape were released. Two years ago, in the early hours of October 20, 2024, 20-year-old Jane Doe claims she was gang raped by seven members of Cornell University’s Chi Phi fraternity. Until she filed a massive civil suit earlier this week alleging it was rape, all the contemporaneous statements from Jane Doe (that we’ve seen) indicate she voluntarily took drugs and engaged in four hours of consensual group...

The Bartender's Thinking BIG! 😆

A Yonkers woman made the hellish decision to abort her baby after getting the results of a paternity test — only to find out months later the results were wrong, she said in a lawsuit. Now instead of planning a baby shower and getting ready for her daughter’s impending birth, the woman is dealing with the emotional wreckage of losing her child and her long-term relationship because of the alleged error by Winn Health Labs in the Bronx and Ohio-based DNA Diagnostics Center, according to court papers. “My daughter would have been born on the 17th” of April, she told...

The toys were collected between Nov. 17 and Dec. 19 and the distribution took place last weekend at LASD custody centers, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

The White House is an absolute clown show Kamala: “And we give thanks to our commander in chief, the vi- , the President of United States, the extraordinary President of the United States, Joe Biden!” Biden: “Ho! Ho! Ho! Happy Independence Day!”

The total number of Russian deaths in Ukraine is likely to have exceeded all fatalities in 16 of the nation's military actions since the Second World War, it has been claimed. The rate of soldiers being killed per month in the first year of the war was 25 times higher than in Chechnya and 35 times higher than in the Soviet Union's ten-year war in Afghanistan, a US think-tank said. It is thought Russian troops are dying at five times the rate of Ukrainians, at a total of around 70,000. The Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) said Russia...

Vice President Kamala Harris bungled a history lesson about the Juneteenth holiday Monday, telling kids that black people were enslaved in America for 400 years — overstating the actual time period by more than 150 years. “I think that we all know today is a day to celebrate the principle of freedom,” Harris told a group of about two dozen elementary school-aged children at the National Museum of African American History & Culture in Washington. “And think about it in terms of the context of history, knowing that black people in America were not free for 400 years of slavery.”...

When Hunter Biden took his laptop to a Wilmington, Delaware computer repair shop in 2019, he had no idea what a mess he would create after forgetting or abandoning his files that would eventually be turned over to the FBI and end up splashed across numerous covers of The New York Post. Now, in a book written by the computer repair shop's owner John Paul Mac Isaac, there are even more absurd details about Hunter Biden's life and the events that led to the contents of the now-first son's laptop becoming public in the final stretch of the 2020 presidential...

a low-profile, solo conman scored one of the biggest thefts of the year Wednesday when he walked out of the Apple store with an estimated $70,000 in merchandise. A source said the thief, posing as a FedEx driver, knocked on the store’s service door on Lower Michigan Avenue, and an employee gave him a cartload of outgoing packages. All totaled, about $70,000 worth of iPhones, MacBooks, iPads, and other products were taken, according to a report.
