Lzzy Hale Slams Alleged Perpetrators in Cornell 7 Rape Case: ‘You Are a Sick Monster’
The singer was unequivocal about her thoughts on the case that has shocked the nation.
Lzzy Hale, a musician, passionately condemned those accused of gang rape and drugging a former Cornell student, referring to them as "sick monsters" in an Instagram post. The incident allegedly occurred in October 2024, when a woman, identified as Jane Doe, claimed she was drugged and sexually assaulted by seven then-members of the Chi Phi fraternity.
Hale urged anyone who witnessed the assault but did nothing to be held accountable, stating they are accessories to the crime. The seven men involved in the assault were given various sanctions by Cornell, such as writing reflection papers or being expelled. Despite the university's investigation, the campus police reportedly did not pursue criminal charges against the accused.
However, New York Attorney General Letitia James has been appointed to conduct a new investigation into the case. Hale's statement was made in response to the reopening of the case, which has sparked national outrage and calls for a fresh investigation.
