According to Campus Police, Chi Phi Fraternity Brothers Met to Get on Same Page About Jane Doe Allegations and Told Student to Stay Quiet

New revelations are surfacing in the Jane Doe case against the Cornell University fraternity.

Per the latest updates from the campus police, the school's police department received a tip from an anonymous caller saying that the Chi Phi fraternity's leadership asked a potential witness to stay quiet.

Apparently, this was done because "the reputation of all involved and the frat would be ruined" if details of the incident spread across campus, per the school records reviewed by ABC News.

Videos obtained by the outlet showed the Cornell investigators, in the following days, beginning to question witnesses about a potential cover-up by the fraternity brothers.

"Chi Phi held a meeting essentially to get all of the men on the same page about what happened. I know for a fact there are group messages about the situation," one female student reportedly told investigators.

The respective student also confided in the investigators that the fraternity brothers described the incident as a "consensual o---," but also expressed concern that it "would be bad for [their] image."

However, when pressed by campus cops, one frat brother, who was not a part of the alleged rape incident, denied that they were having specific meetings about it.

He said that the incident only came up informally during a meeting when the fraternity discussed their "brother of the week and idiots of the week."

"We didn't have a meeting about it specifically," he said. "It was our weekly chapter meeting. We got through a bunch of stuff."

For those unversed, the girl at the center of this sexual assault case is an undergraduate student.

Three weeks after the incident occurred, she made a complaint to campus police in November 2024 that she had been r---- by 8-10 men at the Chi Phi fraternity house.

Since then, Cornell's board of trustees has tapped the law firm King & Spalding to conduct an investigation into the school's handling of Doe's allegation.

This will notably be led by former acting U.S. Attorney General Sally Yates.

Meanwhile, all seven of the accused fraternity members have denied all wrongdoing.

Fraternity member Matthew Ingalls, who has not been charged with a crime, has not responded to requests for comment about the incident.

As per the records reviewed by the outlet, Ingalls later told investigators that he was too intoxicated to consent that night and portrayed himself as the victim in the incident.

Additionally, in an email to Cornell's Title IX investigator in February 2025, he even accused the school of "entrapment" and suggested he might file his own complaint against Doe.
