US prosecutors reopen case of alleged frat house gang rape at Cornell University

US prosecutors have reopened an investigation into an alleged gang rape at Cornell University. The reopened case follows claims that the university did not adequately punish the students involved. According to a civil lawsuit filed this month, the alleged victim stated she was drugged with ketamine and then assaulted and raped in 2024 by seven members of the Chi Phi fraternity. Cornell University responded by closing the fraternity and temporarily suspending the accused students, with several later being expelled. The article indicates that prosecutors are now reinvestigating the matter.
