- Van Houten defended the 2024 decision not to pursue charges, saying the sworn statement did not establish a crime under state law.
- Hochul questioned why prosecutors neither interviewed the woman directly nor reviewed the full transcript of her police interview.
- Hochul said she would work with lawmakers to remove distinctions based on whether victims voluntarily consumed intoxicants.
This young woman had already endured something that is utterly unspeakable, and then at every turn she was failed by people and institutions with an obligation to protect her.— Kathy Hochul, New York Governor, during a press conference on the Cornell University investigation.
