What the Cornell 7 case tells us about frat culture | BBC News

Une vidéo de BBC News sur l'affaire de viol à l'université Cornell et ce qu'elle révèle de la culture des fraternités dans les universités américaines. La gouverneure de New York, Kathy Hochul, affirme que la femme au cœur de l'affaire a été « lâchée » à « chaque étape ».

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has said the woman at the centre of the Cornell University rape case was "failed" at "every turn". New York state prosecutors have reopened an investigation. The woman filed a civil lawsuit alleging she was drugged and raped at a fraternity house at the university and that Cornell failed to protect her or adequately punish the men involved. Cornell has said it supported presenting the case to a grand jury, while rejecting claims that it failed to punish those involved. It has also agreed to have the case examined by an independent investigator.
