On the plus side, the Columbia student paper finally stepped forward and admitted that they've been biased and one-sided throughout this entire process, and that they did so out of fear of feminist backlash (http://tinyurl.com/p2vr84l)

On the negative side, a fourth accuser just stepped forward, and it's a "a male Columbia student who identifies as queer and black," who claims he reported the incident back in 2011 (http://tinyurl.com/pfs3v97)
This story just took a weird turn.
First article:

Ultimately, the media does not know whether or not Nungesser is guilty, and due to serious issues with the judicial process, cannot rely on Columbia’s verdict. And while Nungesser is statistically guilty, that is not justification for the treatment he has received at the hands of the media.
Statisically guilty? I don’t know what that means—but at least Garisto acknowledged that the Spectator had indulged in “uncritical coverage” of Sulkowicz’s claims.
Statistically guilty - as in 1 in 5 fake guilty? WTF?

Male Columbia Student Says Alleged Rapist in ‘Mattress Girl’ Case Assaulted Him Too
Seriously - they are trumping up a gay student, who was what - assaulted, raped?
Quote:Quote:
The current Columbia senior, known as "Adam," was close friends with Nungesser when Nungesser allegedly sexually assaulted him in his dorm room during an emotional discussion in 2011, Jezebel reports. Though Adam says he reported the incident to a student organization they both were members of, he declined to file a Title IX case until fall 2014, when he heard Sulkowicz's story. He told Jezebel he waited so long because of "issues that face many male survivors of sexual assault — denial, fear that nobody would believe him, fear that even defining himself as a survivor would somehow damage others." His case is pending.

Jezebel also published Sulkowicz's annotations of Facebook chat transcripts and emails that Nungesser provided to the Daily Beast to show that Sulkowicz and another victim, known as "Josie," were warm and friendly with him both before and after the alleged rapes. Sulkowicz contextualized the conversation, noting that Nungesser was one of her "closest friends" freshman year. After the alleged incident on August 27, Sulkowicz's annotations show she was trying to be polite to get Nungesser to meet with her and talk about what happened. Once it was clear he wasn't interested in doing so, the two eventually stopped speaking.
She was polite and wanted to talk to him? What the fuck - saying "I love you." ???
The Jezebel article is topping it all off:

Email from Sulkowitz to journalist young who published the "damning" article:

You are unwilling to violate the privacy of a third party, yet you are willing to violate mine? If you are only publishing conversations that you have both parties' consent to publish, I do not give you my consent to publish any of what he has sent you.
So she objects of course that conversations are going to be published.
Jezebel publishes some inane "annotations" which prove jack shit - she does not explain, why she says "I love you" to her rapist months later.

Adam, a current Columbia senior, tells Jezebel that he was close friends with Paul during his freshman year in 2011. One fall night, in the midst of an emotional conversation in Paul's dorm room, Adam says Paul pushed him onto his bed and sexually assaulted him.
Adam, who identifies as "queer and black," didn't tell anybody about the incident until months later. His silence, he says, was due to issues that face many male survivors of sexual assault—denial, fear that nobody would believe him, fear that even defining himself as a survivor would somehow damage others.
Adam filed a complaint against Paul with a student organization to which both men belonged. But it wasn't until after Sulkowicz's story went public that Adam seriously considered reporting the alleged assault to Columbia. Last fall, after years of agonizing over whether or not to come forward, he filed a Title IX complaint. That case is currently pending.
So now a black gay student was sexually assaulted by Nungasser. He is having a Czech girlfriend by now and he is supposed to be a closeted homosexual who has fucked several girls at Columbia? Why should he live that charade? He is no traditional Christian, but a feminist liberal, so accepting his homosexuality would be easy-peasy. And the queer actually filed a complaint? Really?
Slowly but surely having sex in the US is only safe when you are part of the Mafia or the mega-wealthy and any pesky rape allegations end up buried in the woods. The crazy bitches are making the sexual market place unbearable. The comment section at Jezebel is just fucking lunatic. NYMag is basically a mouthpiece for Jezebel and the student newspaper is getting cowed by the narrative.
The commentators truly said that the messages just prove that Sulkowitz wanted to be sociable. But they omit the fact that they actually met as well in person! This is bat-shit crazy!
I hope it goes to court. Men need to record every fucking encounter with women - but I guess even then Jezebel will scream and holler that you must not believe your eyes - her words 2 years later are more valid.
