Rodrigo\u2019s Instagram Story had read: \u201cShame on Cornell and on every institution who protects rapists and abusers over women. I stand with Jane Doe<\/a>. Her bravery reverberates across the country and the crimes against her will not go unpunished. What she lived through matters, and so does the failure of those who could have intervened but chose not to. She deserves answers, consequences, and lasting change.\u201d (The former student is identified under the alias of Jane Doe amid her civil lawsuit<\/a> against Cornell University, filed on September 16.)<\/p>\nOn September 29, Tompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten<\/strong>, who reopened the investigation, spoke to People<\/em> about Doe\u2019s case which claims she was brutally assaulted for at least seven hours in 2024 by the men despite never pressing charges. Van Houten told the outlet he believed \u201csomething untoward did happen\u201d at the frat house on the night of the alleged incident.<\/p>\n\n![\"GettyImages-2211858477-Megyn-Kelly-Slams-Olivia-Rodrigo.jpg\"](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/GettyImages-2211858477-Megyn-Kelly-Slams-Olivia-Rodrigo.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")
