Leaked texts and phone calls in the Cornell 7 case surfaced in October 2026, including messages between Jane Doe and fraternity members. Jane Doe wrote that none of the sexual stuff was illegal and called it a gangbang, while Jonathan Newell apologized and said his memory was fuzzy. Cornell expelled two students. Later reporting adds that Julio Lopes's attorney denies his client saw drugs in the room and denies he sent an apologetic text, that the Chi Phi president disinvited Jane Doe from a Halloween party, and that a downloadable crisis template advises members under police investigation. The discussion centers on whether the messages undercut the rape allegation or reflect trauma, and on possible civil liability.
