SYRACUSE Finds Sex Assault Accuser Not Credible, But Still Suspends Accused Male

April 16, 2018

A Syracuse University conduct board determined that two-thirds of a female accuser’s accusations against a male student were unfounded, yet allowed her to change her account of the third accusation, and indefinitely suspended the male student. When John* was informed that an accusation had been lodged against him, on Nov. 14, 2016, he was not given the specifics of the allegation or what student conduct codes he violated. This allowed Jane* to change her story without documented evidence that such a change occurred. John is suing Syracuse for Title IX and due process violations, as well as breach of contract.
