SETTLEMENT: Texas A&M Held TitleIX Trial While Hospitalized Male Couldn’t Defend Himself

Texas A&M should be avoided by college males. There are multiple lawsuits against the university for violating due process rights of students accused of sex. (SOS will not always say rape, as most Title IX accusations are not rape, they are consent sex regret accusations or ex-girlfriend accusations, or childish accusations over a consent kiss or hug)  Thankfully TAMU and John Doe have settled one particular case. This is the case where John Doe was put on suicide watch, then tried and convicted in absentia…Doe was a Texas A&M University cadet who was suspended following a sex charge he never got to see – because he was hospitalized. Doe’s federal lawsuit claimed that he was unable to “meaningfully defend himself” when Title IX investigators refused to reschedule a conduct meeting that would have revealed the specific accusations of his partner, with whom he had an open sexual relationship.“ According to the lawsuit, at all times John Doe was deemed guilty.”  “This extreme and severe sanction was not warranted in light of the lack of evidence.” When John was permitted access to a computer from in-patient treatment, he learned he had been found responsible on all charges: sexual contact, sexual abuse, dating violence and “Conduct Unbecoming a Cadet.”  I am so grateful for this settlement. SOS wishes great success and a productive harmonious life for this innocent John Doe. #blessings
