  "summary": "Thomas Giuffra, the lawyer representing Jane Doe in a civil lawsuit, stated that her family home was targeted in a swatting attack. According to CBC News, Giuffra described the incident as part of escalating threats against the woman, who has faced attempts to publish her identity online despite being identified only as Jane Doe in court documents.\n\nThe allegations involve a report of a gang rape at a Cornell University fraternity house. The Korea Times reports that Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff knew in 2024 that a student had reported the incident but did not follow up to determine the outcome of investigations or whether any accused students faced punishment. While Kotlikoff addressed the \"deeply disturbing\" allegations involving sexual violence and drug use at the Chi Phi fraternity in a November 2024 message, he acknowledged he only recently learned the woman had dropped out of the university and that students had been suspended or expelled.",
