  "account": "Gilio Lopes, a Cornell fraternity member accused of a sexual assault, maintains his actions were not deserving of remorse, according to his attorney Andrew Miltenberg. Lopes served a school-sanctioned suspension after his alleged misconduct, and he insists the encounter with Jane Doe was consensual. Miltenberg stated that Lopes did not see the vulgar texts until they were presented during the Title IX investigation. Jane Doe, however, described being intoxicated and having a threesome with Lopes and another Chi Phi member in Lopes' room. Cornell's Title IX investigation concluded that Lopes should have known Jane Doe was incapacitated and held him responsible for sexual assault. Lopes was suspended from Cornell for three semesters and required to write a reflection essay. Miltenberg called the result \"unfair,\" adding that the punishment was not proportional to the alleged misconduct.",
  "summary": "Gillio Lopes has maintained his interaction with Jane Doe was consensual, including when they had sex that night.",
