Jane Doe And Her Allegations Against The Cornell 7 (Part 1) (10/7/26)

A Jane Doe plaintiff sued Cornell University, the Chi Phi fraternity and its national organizations, Tri Delta and its related entities, Moonies Bar & Nightclub, seven Cornell students and several other defendants over an alleged sexual assault at the Chi Phi house in October 2024. According to the complaint, Doe was a 20-year-old Cornell student and Tri Delta member who became heavily intoxicated during a sorority event, was served alcohol at Moonies despite being marked as under 21, and later went to the Chi Phi house. She alleges that fraternity members gave her additional alcohol, marijuana and what they described as ketamine before multiple men sexually assaulted her while she was too intoxicated and drugged to consent. The complaint alleges that one fraternity member posted a message to a Chi Phi Snapchat group inviting others upstairs while the assault was underway, after which additional members entered the room. Doe says the assaults continued for hours, ending shortly before 6 a.m., and that she later reported what happened to Cornell police. Cornell subsequently suspended the fraternity and several students, opened a Title IX investigation, and publicly described the allegations as involving drug abuse and sexual violence; the complaint says the matter also remained under investigation by Ithaca police.

The lawsuit goes beyond the individual students and argues that Cornell, Chi Phi, Tri Delta and other institutional defendants failed to protect Doe despite years of warnings about sexual assault, drugging and alcohol-related misconduct within Greek life. The complaint points to prior reports of sexual assaults and druggings connected to Cornell fraternities, campus reform efforts dating back years and policies that allegedly demonstrated the university and Greek organizations understood the risks. Doe accuses the institutional defendants of negligence, negligent supervision and retention, breach of contract and other failures, while asserting sexual assault, sexual battery and emotional-distress claims against the individual students. She also brings claims under New York’s Human Rights Law, education law and Dram Shop Act, alleging that Moonies unlawfully served her alcohol despite clear indications that she was underage and visibly intoxicated. The suit seeks compensatory and punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, interest and a jury trial, while making clear that the allegations remain civil claims that the defendants are entitled to contest in court.
