Shocking New Testimonies in Cornell 7 Case Upend Everything We Thought We Knew
Ever wonder how seven adults can walk into a fraternity party and walk out telling seven wildly different stories? Welcome to the dizzying saga of the “Cornell 7,” where claims fly like confetti and reality seems to have taken a coffee break. When a former student alleges a heinous assault at Chi Phi’s frat house, the accused step up with accounts so contradictory, you might question if they all attended the same shindig—or if it was more like an alternate universe. One even flips the script, claiming victimhood over an unsolicited intimate act. It’s a whirlwind of conflicting testimonies, Snapchat messages that raise eyebrows, and investigators asking everything but the most pressing questions. The big quandary remains: how do we untangle truth from tale when every party guest spins their own yarn? Buckle up, because this isn’t just a party story—it’s a maze of perspectives that challenges what we think we know.
The men accused in the disturbing Cornell University case have offered starkly different accounts of what happened at the fraternity party.
After a former student was allegedly violated, the seven accused members of the Chi Phi fraternity told a completely different story to the investigators of the university’s Title IX office, making claims about the alleged victim’s behavior and statements during the encounter.
- The seven men accused in the Cornell case denied wrongdoing during interviews conducted in 2024.
- These interviews, conducted by the university’s Title IX office, were recently published in the media after about two years.
- Known as the “Cornell 7,” the men’s account of the night was starkly different from the alleged victim, identified only as Jane Doe.
- One even claimed that he was the victim after Doe committed an intimate act without asking him.

Horrific details about what unfolded inside Chi Phi’s frat house the night of October 19, 2024, were provided in the explosive 101-page lawsuit filed last month by the alleged victim, identified as Jane Doe.
Doe accused the frat’s seven members of s**ually ass**lting her together while she was intoxicated and unable to consent. She also accused them of plying her with illicit substances.
All the men denied any wrongdoing while being questioned by university officials about their actions. Their interviews, which were not previously disclosed to the public, were obtained by the New York Timesas part of hundreds of pages of confidential investigative files obtained by the outlet.
These statements were given by the accused “Cornell 7” over the winter of 2024.
The “Cornell 7” agreed that the night began with an invitation for a threes**e, according to the records
While four of the men acknowledged having some form of intimate contact with Doe, they also asserted that it was carried out with the woman’s consent.
Meanwhile, others denied having any kind of s**ual involvement with her.
The report claimed that the men’s accounts contraindicated each other at some points, and one even claimed that he was a “victim” because Doe had performed oral s** on him while he was too intoxicated to consent.
During these interviews conducted in the university premises, none of the men were explicitly asked whether they rap*d Doe. Instead, they were asked questions like where they were on the night in question, what they said, and why they were in the same bedroom on October 19.
As per the men’s accounts, the s**ual encounters began after frat member Matthew Ingalls asked Jane Doe if she wanted to have a threes**e with him and fellow member Jonathan Newell.
Newell claimed during his interview that he agreed to participate in the threes**e, assuming that Ingalls had asked for permission on his behalf. He also admitted that both he and Ingalls threw up that night from having a lot of alco**l and consuming marij***a and ketam***.
According to Doe’s lawsuit, Newell had blasted out a text on Snapchat to the rest of the frat members, saying: “free p**sy” in the bedroom.
During the interviews, the other accused men said Doe and the people around her didn’t seem too intoxicated or hadn’t drank too much.
Winston Lee, who was part of the group, said the others “weren’t slurring their speech” and seemed “perfectly normal.”
One frat brother, Gillio Lopes, said he and Newell were living in the room where the alleged encounters took place.
He claimed Doe was the one who initiated s**ual contact with him and proceeded without his consent.
Things took a turn as a Snapchat message brought more fraternity members into the room
Eventually at around 2 a.m., Lopes apparently left because he felt “uncomfortable” and went to a McDonald’s with three friends. He claimed he hadn’t told the friends what happened because he was “embarrassed.”
