The former Cornell University student using the pseudonym Jane Doe has faced multiple threats and attacks since filing a lawsuit against seven men she alleges assaulted her, according to her lawyer. Jane Doe alleges she was drugged and raped in 2024 at the Chi Phi fraternity house at Cornell. She is not the only one to face harassment. Three women have been falsely identified as Jane Doe, while students at other universities who share the names of the seven men have reported receiving hate messages and threats.
