Cornell Accuser Says Healthcare Failed to Follow Up
🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
TSquirrel notes that the text exchanges reveal the accuser's own realization of non-consent, but the healthcare system's earlier inaction may have compounded her trauma.
💡 Why it matters
This failure to act on a student's cry for help could discourage other survivors from coming forward and leave perpetrators unaccountable.
Jane Doe told a Cornell doctor she contracted an infection from a traumatic incident, but the doctor did not follow up. Text messages show she later realized the night at a fraternity was not consensual.
