Cornell rape case accuser has received ‘threats’, attorney tells BBC Newsnight

Thomas Giuffra, counsel for the woman identified in court filings as Jane Doe, told BBC Newsnight that he and his client have received death threats after the case gained public attention. Jane Doe alleges she was raped at a Cornell University fraternity house in 2024. Initially, no criminal charges were filed in connection with the allegations. The matter was later revived after Doe filed a civil lawsuit, prompting authorities to reopen the investigation. Giuffra also discussed recent developments in the lawsuit and commented on remarks made by former President Donald Trump regarding the case.
