Cornell rocked by yet another sex assault scandal involving up to 10 students, accused of doing ‘nothing to investigate’

Two Cornell University students alleged in a 2023 lawsuit that the university failed to investigate reports of sexual misconduct by fellow student Esat Braveboy. They claim that Cornell’s inaction allowed further abuse, raising questions about how the university handled complaints.

The lawsuit says at least five to 10 other students may have been sexually abused on campus, with more possibly not yet coming forward. The two undergraduates filed Title IX complaints, and the case adds to scrutiny of Cornell’s response to sexual violence; the article says the story is developing.
