Because there’s a lot of discourse around the Cornell gang rape and people have a vested interest in making others disbelieve the Jane Doe in that case.

Indeed, it's why nothing should be made public and then public after the verdict.

this is.. a horror show

Theres credible evidence that these shitsmears hunted her down and drugged her. This is EXACTLY the type of case I point to when I be moan poor situational awareness in the "victims" case, that voluntarily showing up to a frat party is a bad, bad, idea if you are female. These are the kind of degenerates that host them, I'M CALLING OUT THE FRAT BOYS in case it wasn't clear, and saying what I'm saying as A WARNING to women not an admonishment of victimhood.
