Megyn Kelly on the Totalitarian Absurdity of the Cornell 7 “Rape” Case
Summary
Megan Kelly provides a detailed factual account of the Cornell fraternity incident, arguing that Jane Doe’s own police statement and texts prove the encounter was consensual despite heavy intoxication. She highlights that the local DA found no crime occurred under New York law, yet Letitia James is pursuing criminal charges against the men. Kelly criticizes the media for protecting the accuser’s anonymity while naming the defendants, calling it a perversion of justice. The discussion also covers Cornell’s culture, the role of modern feminism, and the dangers of changing consent laws.
