watching Netflix monster series is kind of like watching the plays/musicals of your high school drama club. You support them wholeheartedly but it’ll always the same actors
When we hire a DA we should expect this person to be aware of basic victim thought processes. He should know this more than most:
"Right after a frightening or overwhelming sexual encounter, many people do not produce a clean, complete, legally tidy story. The nervous system often shifts into survival mode: fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. Numbness, dissociation, and a flattened affect can make the night feel unreal or fragmentary. Details that later seem central—who did what, whether they could have left, how drunk they were—may not be available in language yet.
Self-preservation shapes the first telling. People minimize, use neutral words, or emphasize their own choices because that can feel safer than naming rape. Admitting total loss of control can feel more threatening than saying “I went along.” Shame, fear of not being believed, fear of social or legal blowback, and loyalty to people they still know can all push an account toward “it was messy but I agreed.” Memory is state-dependent: intoxication plus stress often yields islands of recall rather than a timeline.
None of this proves a later lawsuit is true or that an early statement was false. It explains why first reports are often incomplete, why wording can change as someone leaves shock and gets language for what happened, and why investigators trained in trauma treat early statements as starting points, not the whole file. Trauma can distort, omit, and delay. It does not, by itself, rewrite the legal elements of consent."
@DCraigOscarPics Ppl in the replies: how do you expect a non-coherent and continuously drugged girl to know what’s happening? the DA literally just said that when she interviewed she corrected herself; he said it insinuated she was telling the truth. She did her best as a traumatized victim
In 1995, a tiny stray kitten somehow got into the enclosure of a 560-pound grizzly bear named Griz at a wildlife rehabilitation center in Oregon, and because apparently kittens are born with absolutely no concept of reasonable risk assessment, he walked straight up to the bear while Griz was eating. The people watching were pretty sure they were about to witness the shortest friendship in history.
Instead, Griz reached into his food, pulled out a piece of chicken, put it down next to his paw, and let the kitten eat it. And that was basically it. The kitten, who was given the incredibly creative name Cat, apparently decided he lived with a grizzly now.
They started eating together, sleeping together and playing together, and Cat would even run up and smack Griz on the nose, while the 560-pound bear somehow understood that his roommate was approximately the size of one of his feet and reportedly backed off when their play got too rough.
Apparently bears are eligible for the cat distribution system.
A friend of mine told me she fell asleep during a tattoo and the male tattooist woke her up in a panic saying “hey if you’re not CONSCIOUS I can’t tattoo you”
BECAUSE IF SOMEONE IS UNCONSCIOUS YOU DO NOT TOUCH THEM.
i hope the cornell survivor stays anonymous and protected. i hope shes surrounded by an amazing support system and love. i hope she wins and i hope she feels a semblance of justice when they all go to prison for what they did to her. i hope she takes every penny from that school.
Let me make this crystal clear. Jane Doe should NEVER be publicly identified. We don't want her name. We WANT the names of the 57 “men” who were complicit.

A former South Park writer has created a website to expose the alleged Cornell gang rapists and those in the Ivy League institution who gave them “a break” – warning that “accountability is coming.”
Satirist Toby Morton, who wrote five episodes of the hit Comedy Central show between 2001 and 2003, addressed the seven frat brothers who allegedly drugged and raped a 20-year-old woman at their house in Ithaca, New York, in October 2024, in an Instagram post on Sunday.
Hello, Matthew Ingalls, Johnathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris, Scott Kretzschmar,” the post begins, before Morton reveals he has created a website called “https://t.co/mjNvy4pDX1” to document their alleged crimes.
“I not only own variations of your domain names, but I now have photos,” Morton wrote. “I’m now slowly finding out where you work.”
Morton also warned that he is going after “those employed at Cornell who gave you a break, and I’m coming for them too.”
“I’ve received messages reminding me I’m not a journalist, I’m ‘just a satirist,’” he wrote.
“This is true. But this makes me more dangerous. I have no limits. No boundaries. Nobody to tell me I’ve gone too far.”
Morton’s vigilante online justice comes as prosecutors reopened an investigation into the alleged gang rape of the former Cornell student, after her lawyer filed a civil lawsuit earlier this month.
The original investigation into the alleged 2024 assault resulted in no criminal charges, but the civil complaint contains “dramatically different” allegations, Tompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten told ABC News.
In her civil complaint, filed Sept. 16, the victim, only identified as Jane Doe, alleges that the seven members of Cornell’s Chi Phi fraternity drugged and sexually assaulted her at the frat house in October 2024 – and sickeningly invited other fraternity members to join the assault in a group chat.
The seven fraternity members, none of whom have been criminally charged, were given temporary suspensions and “were afforded the opportunity to mitigate their conduct by submitting essays” to the university, the complaint states.
