She sat for hours and\ntold them exactly what happened to her. And according to new reports, she could not\nhave been clearer that she was 100 percent confident that she had been raped,\u201d the\nDemocratic governor said. \u201dYet, shockingly, those words never made it into the account\n\nthat the Cornell police sent to prosecutors.\u201d\n\nHochul said Thursday that she appointed James to oversee the case because she had lost\n\nfaith in the local district attorney\u2019s ability to handle it.\n\nTompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten, who was removed from the\n\ncase, said Friday that he supports James\u2019s appointment.\n\n\u201cT trust that she will examine the facts and apply the law,\u201d Van Houten said in a\nstatement. \u201dIt has become clear that we were not provided the full picture by the\n\nuniversity.

I do too. A comprehensive\n\ninvestigation of this nature takes time, but my office is committed to seeing it through.\u201d\n\nThe investigation initially was closed without charges in 2024. Van Houten reopened the\ninvestigation on Monday after the woman filed a new lawsuit against seven former\n\nmembers of the Chi Phi fraternity, as well as Cornell and others.\n\nVan Houten has defended his decision not to prosecute, maintaining that a sworn\nstatement by the woman prepared by police didn\u2019t include the woman\u2019s allegations that\nshe was drugged against her will, incapacitated beyond the ability to consent, and forced\n\ninto sex.\n\nThe case has roiled the Ivy League school and raised questions about its response and the\n\nlarger issue of how sexual assaults are handled on college campuses.\n\nThe woman, identified only as Jane Doe in court documents, told campus police in\nNovember 2024 that she was sexually assaulted, then discussed it with the university\u2019s\n\ninternal investigators as part of Cornell\u2019s disciplinary process.\n\nHer lawsuit alleges that she was plied with drugs and alcohol, then subjected to sexual\nacts by a group of men while she was partially or entirely incapacitated. One of the men\nsent a social media message to other fraternity members alerting them to what was\n\nhappening and inviting people to take part, according to the lawsuit.\n\n\n--- Page 10 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 PM INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

Attempts to reach the other men or their\n\nrepresentatives for comment have been unsuccessful.\n\nHochul also threw her support behind proposals to change an element of New York law\nthat has long made it more difficult to prosecute people who have engaged in sex with\nsomeone who voluntarily became intoxicated to the point where their ability to consent\n\nwas compromised.\n\nUnder the law, rape charges generally need to involve force or a clear refusal of sex,\nunless the victim is physically helpless due to being unconscious, or mentally\nincapacitated due to being drugged without their consent. New York is one of 19 states\n\nwith such laws.\n\n\u201cIf someone is too intoxicated to consent, it should not matter whether they chose to use\ndrugs or alcohol. Voluntary intoxication is not a license for sexual assault or gang rape,\n\nperiod,\u201d the governor said.\n\nNew York governors have turned to attorneys general and special prosecutors to oversee\n\nimportant cases in the past.\n\nIn 2018, then-Governor Andrew Cuomo appointed a Long Island district attorney to\n\ninvestigate Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who resigned after women accused him\n\n\n--- Page 11 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 PM INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

In 2021, James appointed two outside lawyers to conduct a non-criminal\n\ninvestigation into sexual harassment allegations against then-Governor Andrew Cuomo,\n\nleading to his resignation.\n\nJames\u2019s office also handles other criminal work and has the power to investigate every\ndeath in the state involving law enforcement. But, typically, she can\u2019t initiate a criminal\ninvestigation without a referral from a local district attorney, the governor, or a state\n\nagency.\n\nJames, a Democrat who took office in 2019, is perhaps best known for suing President\nTrump over allegations that he defrauded banks by overstating the value of his real estate\nholdings on financial statements. An appeals court overturned Trump\u2019s fine, which\n\nballooned to more than $500 million, but upheld a judge\u2019s fraud finding.\n\nTrump\u2019s Justice Department, in turn, brought mortgage fraud charges against James last\nyear as part of the president\u2019s retribution campaign against political enemies, but a judge\ndismissed the case and a grand jury rejected another attempt to indict her.

As a Wall Street Journal editorial noted, \u201cThe students clearly\nengaged in awful behavior ... [b]ut the issue for a prosecutor is whether this rises to the\n\nlevel of a criminal offense.\u201d That\u2019s what James is supposed to be investigating.\n\nScott Harshbarger, a former Massachusetts attorney general, said that Hochul\u2019s framing\nof the mission created a problem for James. By using the words \u201cindependent special\nprosecutor,\u201d he said, Hochul verbally combined what should be seen as two separate\n\nroles.\n\nAn independent investigation calls for someone with no prior view of the situation to\nreview it and report back objectively on what they find \u2014 a job Harshbarger undertook in\nprivate practice in 2017 when he oversaw an independent investigation of sexual\nmisconduct at St. Paul\u2019s School, an elite prep school in New Hampshire. The results of\n\nthat investigation were turned over to the school.\n\nWhen you bring in a special prosecutor, Harshbarger said in an interview, \u201cYou don\u2019t\nneed to claim it\u2019s independent. ... The governor is essentially saying to the AG, \u2018\u2019m\nasking you to go in there and see, if you were the DA, what you would have done.\u201d That\nkind of inquiry requires a specific legal determination of whether there is probable cause\n\nand other evidence needed for criminal charges.\n\nIn this case, however, \u201c[t]he governor confused this,\u201d Harshbarger said. \u201cIt should have\nbeen done more cleanly. Since it wasn\u2019t, how can people feel confident that the AG is\n\ncoming in here unbiased?\u201d\n\n\n--- Page 16 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

As Thomas\nGiuffra, Doe\u2019s lawyer, said in an interview with CNN\u2019s Jake Tapper, \u201cThere are\nRepublicans whose daughters are getting assaulted. There are Democrats whose\n\ndaughters are getting assaulted. This has nothing to do with politics.\u201d\n\nWhen he was asked if he is worried about James\u2019s credibility, Giuffra said, \u201cThere will be\nimpartiality. I think there will be fairness. I\u2019m troubled by this attempt to politicize\n\nsomething that is not political.\u201d\n\nMeanwhile, Andrew T. Miltenberg, a lawyer for one of the men who was involved in the\nalleged sexual assault, has called for James to step down from the role Hochul\nappointed her to, saying that James\u2019s Facebook post raises an \u201cavoidable question about\n\nthe appearance of impartiality.\u201d\n\n\u201cThe simplest way to remove that question is for her personally to recuse herself and\nallow an uncommitted prosecutor within her office to lead the investigation,\u201d said\n\nMiltenberg in a statement to Fox News.\n\n\n--- Page 17 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

Kathy Hochul assumed office, a well-known colleague\n\u2014 Letitia James, the New York attorney general \u2014 declared that she would\nchallenge the governor in the Democratic primary.\n\nMs. James eventually reconsidered, and Ms. Hochul went on in 2022 to capture her\nfirst full term as governor of New York.\n\nRoughly five years later, the two women find themselves locked arm in arm, both\nrunning for re-election as the closest of allies on a range of issues.\n\nThe latest evidence of this partnership came on Thursday, when Ms. Hochul named\nMs. James special prosecutor to investigate a woman\u2019s allegation that she had\nbeen raped inside a fraternity house at Cornell University in October 2024.\n\nThe governor\u2019s decision to intercede in the matter by enlisting Ms. James asa\nspecial prosecutor may carry implications for the investigation and beyond.\n\nFor Ms. Hochul, appearing as a take-charge governor may help her counter\naccusations from her Republican rival, Bruce Blakeman, that she has been weak\non crime. It also allows her to tell voters that she stands up for the state\u2019s most\nvulnerable, whether they are immigrants or victims of sexual assault.\n\nMs. Hochul said on Saturday that it was important for New Yorkers to see two\nfemale leaders \u2014 Ms. Hochul and Ms. James are the first women to be governor\nand attorney general in New York \u2014 who \u201care fighters who won\u2019t put up with any\ncrap.\u201d\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 2/7\n\n\n--- Page 30 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 91197426\npry Seo.

But Ms. James, who has frequently challenged the\nTrump administration\u2019s policies, has also been the target of a multiyear pursuit by\nthe Justice Department to prosecute her on a range of charges.\nHer involvement has added a layer of complexity to the investigation, as her\nstance as a legal bulwark to President Trump has already led to questions of\nimpartiality.\nJames 4 Me ay aca oo\n| \u2014 \u201c\u00a2 ' A a on \u201caif * Ps ie 7\n. , y en ; aa\n+) Be ff . ey\n, . oy\nLetitia James, the first female attorney general of New York, has been locked for years\nin a multipronged legal war with President Trump.

York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\nis horrific and unacceptable.\u201d\n\nAsked by a reporter on Friday whether it was appropriate to affirm the victims\u2019\nallegations before she had looked into them, Ms. James said: \u201cI will not comment\non a Facebook post.\u201d\n\nMs. James\u2019s opponents were quick to attack her and to impugn her work last week,\nwith Mr. Trump saying on Friday that the attorney general was a \u201ccorrupt person.\u201d\n\n\u201cT feel badly for whoever she\u2019s looking at because they won\u2019t get a fair shake,\u201d the\npresident said in Washington.\n\nMs. James has been locked for years in a multipronged legal war with Mr. Trump,\nwhich has included suing both his administration and his businesses on multiple\noccasions. When Mr. Trump\u2019s lawyers appealed a half-billion-dollar judgment in a\ncivil fraud case, they pointed to Ms. James\u2019s past comments maligning the\npresident as reason she should not have brought that case.\n\nThe penalty was thrown out last year by a divided state appellate court. In their\nruling, several of the justices denounced Ms. James for having called Mr. Trump\u2019s\npresidency \u201cillegitimate\u201d and promising to investigate him while she was\ncampaigning in 2018. Some of the justices said there was no merit to Mr. Trump\u2019s\nassertion of political persecution, even as they criticized Ms. James.\n\n\u201cHer habit of basically making statements about matters and individuals she is\ninvestigating does call into question her discretion as a prosecutor to not prejudge\nthings and to actually handle these matters fairly,\u201d said John Faso, a former\nRepublican congressman and lawyer who has endorsed Ms. James\u2019s opponent in\nthis fall\u2019s election.\n\n\u201cT mean, let\u2019s face it,\u2019 Mr. Faso said. \u201cTish James is a politician, not a prosecutor.\u201d\n\nMs. James insisted that she would be impartial and that she would allow the facts\nto dictate her decisions.\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 4/7\n\n\n--- Page 32

York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\nGovernor Kathy Hochul after a meet-and-greet event in the Bronx on Saturday. Hilary\nSwift for The New York Times\n\nLast month, the Cornell student, identified in court documents as Jane Doe, sued\nthe university, her sorority, the fraternity and the seven men she claimed had been\ninvolved in the assault. None of the accused have been charged with a crime, and\nall have denied wrongdoing. Four said they had consensual contact with the\nwoman at a party, and the others denied that they had been involved in the assault.\n\nMs. Hochul insisted on Friday, and again on Saturday, that Ms. James would follow\nthe facts, and that she could be trusted to handle the case with integrity.\n\n\u201cShe knows how to do her job,\u201d Ms. Hochul said in an interview on Saturday.\n\nThe symbolism of having two women leading the state in this tense moment was\nwoven through the remarks of Ms. Hochul, Ms. James and others.\n\n\u201cWith the current events, the person that we needed the most right now has been\nappointed to oversee a very serious case,\u201d Nathalia Fernandez, a Democratic state\nsenator whose district includes the southeast Bronx, said on Saturday at the\ncampaign event.\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 6/7\n\n\n--- Page 34 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\npry Seo: BbY AN _ 121 Cornell Case Carries Far-Reaching Implications for Hochul and James the New. York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\n\u201cWe all know what\u2019s happening at Cornell University,\u201d she added.\n\nCorrected on Oct. 5, 2026: An earlier version of this article misstated when the Tompkins County district\nattorney said he would revisit the 2024 sexual assault accusations.

Kathy Hochul of New York on Friday\nquestioned how Cornell University\u2019s police department and the local district\nattorney handled sexual assault allegations made by a former student, who said\nshe had been raped at a fraternity house in 2024.\n\nMs. Hochul said she had been troubled to learn that the student, identified as Jane\nDoe, had given an interview to the campus police about the episode that included\nan unequivocal statement that she had been raped. That language was missing in\nthe condensed statement that was sent to the district attorney\u2019s office in Tompkins\nCounty, N.Y., which decided not to file criminal charges.\n\n\u201cIn what world would the police learn from the victim that she had literally been\ngang-raped\u201d and not send that allegation to the district attorney, Ms. Hochul said at\na news conference in Manhattan.\n\nShe stood alongside the state attorney general, Letitia James, whom the governor\nhad just appointed to oversee a new investigation into the allegations.\n\nhttps:/Awww.nytimes.com/2026/10/02/nyregion/cornell-rape-jane-doe-hochul.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 1/5\n\n\n--- Page 36

She sat for hours and\ntold them exactly what happened to her. And according to new reports, she could not\nhave been clearer that she was 100 percent confident that she had been raped,\u201d the\nDemocratic governor said. \u201dYet, shockingly, those words never made it into the account\n\nthat the Cornell police sent to prosecutors.\u201d\n\nHochul said Thursday that she appointed James to oversee the case because she had lost\n\nfaith in the local district attorney\u2019s ability to handle it.\n\nTompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten, who was removed from the\n\ncase, said Friday that he supports James\u2019s appointment.\n\n\u201cT trust that she will examine the facts and apply the law,\u201d Van Houten said in a\nstatement. \u201dIt has become clear that we were not provided the full picture by the\n\nuniversity. The focus has been and should continue to be on the victims.\u201d\n\n\n--- Page 9 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 PM INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

I do too. A comprehensive\n\ninvestigation of this nature takes time, but my office is committed to seeing it through.\u201d\n\nThe investigation initially was closed without charges in 2024. Van Houten reopened the\ninvestigation on Monday after the woman filed a new lawsuit against seven former\n\nmembers of the Chi Phi fraternity, as well as Cornell and others.\n\nVan Houten has defended his decision not to prosecute, maintaining that a sworn\nstatement by the woman prepared by police didn\u2019t include the woman\u2019s allegations that\nshe was drugged against her will, incapacitated beyond the ability to consent, and forced\n\ninto sex.\n\nThe case has roiled the Ivy League school and raised questions about its response and the\n\nlarger issue of how sexual assaults are handled on college campuses.\n\nThe woman, identified only as Jane Doe in court documents, told campus police in\nNovember 2024 that she was sexually assaulted, then discussed it with the university\u2019s\n\ninternal investigators as part of Cornell\u2019s disciplinary process.\n\nHer lawsuit alleges that she was plied with drugs and alcohol, then subjected to sexual\nacts by a group of men while she was partially or entirely incapacitated. One of the men\nsent a social media message to other fraternity members alerting them to what was\n\nhappening and inviting people to take part, according to the lawsuit.\n\n\n--- Page 10 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 PM INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

Attempts to reach the other men or their\n\nrepresentatives for comment have been unsuccessful.\n\nHochul also threw her support behind proposals to change an element of New York law\nthat has long made it more difficult to prosecute people who have engaged in sex with\nsomeone who voluntarily became intoxicated to the point where their ability to consent\n\nwas compromised.\n\nUnder the law, rape charges generally need to involve force or a clear refusal of sex,\nunless the victim is physically helpless due to being unconscious, or mentally\nincapacitated due to being drugged without their consent. New York is one of 19 states\n\nwith such laws.\n\n\u201cIf someone is too intoxicated to consent, it should not matter whether they chose to use\ndrugs or alcohol. Voluntary intoxication is not a license for sexual assault or gang rape,\n\nperiod,\u201d the governor said.\n\nNew York governors have turned to attorneys general and special prosecutors to oversee\n\nimportant cases in the past.\n\nIn 2018, then-Governor Andrew Cuomo appointed a Long Island district attorney to\n\ninvestigate Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who resigned after women accused him\n\n\n--- Page 11 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 PM INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

In 2021, James appointed two outside lawyers to conduct a non-criminal\n\ninvestigation into sexual harassment allegations against then-Governor Andrew Cuomo,\n\nleading to his resignation.\n\nJames\u2019s office also handles other criminal work and has the power to investigate every\ndeath in the state involving law enforcement. But, typically, she can\u2019t initiate a criminal\ninvestigation without a referral from a local district attorney, the governor, or a state\n\nagency.\n\nJames, a Democrat who took office in 2019, is perhaps best known for suing President\nTrump over allegations that he defrauded banks by overstating the value of his real estate\nholdings on financial statements. An appeals court overturned Trump\u2019s fine, which\n\nballooned to more than $500 million, but upheld a judge\u2019s fraud finding.\n\nTrump\u2019s Justice Department, in turn, brought mortgage fraud charges against James last\nyear as part of the president\u2019s retribution campaign against political enemies, but a judge\ndismissed the case and a grand jury rejected another attempt to indict her. James denies\n\nwrongdoing.\n\nShow comments\n\n\n--- Page 12 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

As a Wall Street Journal editorial noted, \u201cThe students clearly\nengaged in awful behavior ... [b]ut the issue for a prosecutor is whether this rises to the\n\nlevel of a criminal offense.\u201d That\u2019s what James is supposed to be investigating.\n\nScott Harshbarger, a former Massachusetts attorney general, said that Hochul\u2019s framing\nof the mission created a problem for James. By using the words \u201cindependent special\nprosecutor,\u201d he said, Hochul verbally combined what should be seen as two separate\n\nroles.\n\nAn independent investigation calls for someone with no prior view of the situation to\nreview it and report back objectively on what they find \u2014 a job Harshbarger undertook in\nprivate practice in 2017 when he oversaw an independent investigation of sexual\nmisconduct at St. Paul\u2019s School, an elite prep school in New Hampshire. The results of\n\nthat investigation were turned over to the school.\n\nWhen you bring in a special prosecutor, Harshbarger said in an interview, \u201cYou don\u2019t\nneed to claim it\u2019s independent. ... The governor is essentially saying to the AG, \u2018\u2019m\nasking you to go in there and see, if you were the DA, what you would have done.\u201d That\nkind of inquiry requires a specific legal determination of whether there is probable cause\n\nand other evidence needed for criminal charges.\n\nIn this case, however, \u201c[t]he governor confused this,\u201d Harshbarger said. \u201cIt should have\nbeen done more cleanly. Since it wasn\u2019t, how can people feel confident that the AG is\n\ncoming in here unbiased?\u201d\n\n\n--- Page 16 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

As Thomas\nGiuffra, Doe\u2019s lawyer, said in an interview with CNN\u2019s Jake Tapper, \u201cThere are\nRepublicans whose daughters are getting assaulted. There are Democrats whose\n\ndaughters are getting assaulted. This has nothing to do with politics.\u201d\n\nWhen he was asked if he is worried about James\u2019s credibility, Giuffra said, \u201cThere will be\nimpartiality. I think there will be fairness. I\u2019m troubled by this attempt to politicize\n\nsomething that is not political.\u201d\n\nMeanwhile, Andrew T. Miltenberg, a lawyer for one of the men who was involved in the\nalleged sexual assault, has called for James to step down from the role Hochul\nappointed her to, saying that James\u2019s Facebook post raises an \u201cavoidable question about\n\nthe appearance of impartiality.\u201d\n\n\u201cThe simplest way to remove that question is for her personally to recuse herself and\nallow an uncommitted prosecutor within her office to lead the investigation,\u201d said\n\nMiltenberg in a statement to Fox News.\n\n\n--- Page 17 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\nNYSCEF DOC.

Kathy Hochul assumed office, a well-known colleague\n\u2014 Letitia James, the New York attorney general \u2014 declared that she would\nchallenge the governor in the Democratic primary.\n\nMs. James eventually reconsidered, and Ms. Hochul went on in 2022 to capture her\nfirst full term as governor of New York.\n\nRoughly five years later, the two women find themselves locked arm in arm, both\nrunning for re-election as the closest of allies on a range of issues.\n\nThe latest evidence of this partnership came on Thursday, when Ms. Hochul named\nMs. James special prosecutor to investigate a woman\u2019s allegation that she had\nbeen raped inside a fraternity house at Cornell University in October 2024.\n\nThe governor\u2019s decision to intercede in the matter by enlisting Ms. James asa\nspecial prosecutor may carry implications for the investigation and beyond.\n\nFor Ms. Hochul, appearing as a take-charge governor may help her counter\naccusations from her Republican rival, Bruce Blakeman, that she has been weak\non crime. It also allows her to tell voters that she stands up for the state\u2019s most\nvulnerable, whether they are immigrants or victims of sexual assault.\n\nMs. Hochul said on Saturday that it was important for New Yorkers to see two\nfemale leaders \u2014 Ms. Hochul and Ms. James are the first women to be governor\nand attorney general in New York \u2014 who \u201care fighters who won\u2019t put up with any\ncrap.\u201d\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 2/7\n\n\n--- Page 30 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 91197426\npry Seo.

But Ms. James, who has frequently challenged the\nTrump administration\u2019s policies, has also been the target of a multiyear pursuit by\nthe Justice Department to prosecute her on a range of charges.\nHer involvement has added a layer of complexity to the investigation, as her\nstance as a legal bulwark to President Trump has already led to questions of\nimpartiality.\nJames 4 Me ay aca oo\n| \u2014 \u201c\u00a2 ' A a on \u201caif * Ps ie 7\n. , y en ; aa\n+) Be ff . ey\n, . oy\nLetitia James, the first female attorney general of New York, has been locked for years\nin a multipronged legal war with President Trump.

York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\nis horrific and unacceptable.\u201d\n\nAsked by a reporter on Friday whether it was appropriate to affirm the victims\u2019\nallegations before she had looked into them, Ms. James said: \u201cI will not comment\non a Facebook post.\u201d\n\nMs. James\u2019s opponents were quick to attack her and to impugn her work last week,\nwith Mr. Trump saying on Friday that the attorney general was a \u201ccorrupt person.\u201d\n\n\u201cT feel badly for whoever she\u2019s looking at because they won\u2019t get a fair shake,\u201d the\npresident said in Washington.\n\nMs. James has been locked for years in a multipronged legal war with Mr. Trump,\nwhich has included suing both his administration and his businesses on multiple\noccasions. When Mr. Trump\u2019s lawyers appealed a half-billion-dollar judgment in a\ncivil fraud case, they pointed to Ms. James\u2019s past comments maligning the\npresident as reason she should not have brought that case.\n\nThe penalty was thrown out last year by a divided state appellate court. In their\nruling, several of the justices denounced Ms. James for having called Mr. Trump\u2019s\npresidency \u201cillegitimate\u201d and promising to investigate him while she was\ncampaigning in 2018. Some of the justices said there was no merit to Mr. Trump\u2019s\nassertion of political persecution, even as they criticized Ms. James.\n\n\u201cHer habit of basically making statements about matters and individuals she is\ninvestigating does call into question her discretion as a prosecutor to not prejudge\nthings and to actually handle these matters fairly,\u201d said John Faso, a former\nRepublican congressman and lawyer who has endorsed Ms. James\u2019s opponent in\nthis fall\u2019s election.\n\n\u201cT mean, let\u2019s face it,\u2019 Mr. Faso said. \u201cTish James is a politician, not a prosecutor.\u201d\n\nMs. James insisted that she would be impartial and that she would allow the facts\nto dictate her decisions.\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 4/7\n\n\n--- Page 32

York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\nGovernor Kathy Hochul after a meet-and-greet event in the Bronx on Saturday. Hilary\nSwift for The New York Times\n\nLast month, the Cornell student, identified in court documents as Jane Doe, sued\nthe university, her sorority, the fraternity and the seven men she claimed had been\ninvolved in the assault. None of the accused have been charged with a crime, and\nall have denied wrongdoing. Four said they had consensual contact with the\nwoman at a party, and the others denied that they had been involved in the assault.\n\nMs. Hochul insisted on Friday, and again on Saturday, that Ms. James would follow\nthe facts, and that she could be trusted to handle the case with integrity.\n\n\u201cShe knows how to do her job,\u201d Ms. Hochul said in an interview on Saturday.\n\nThe symbolism of having two women leading the state in this tense moment was\nwoven through the remarks of Ms. Hochul, Ms. James and others.\n\n\u201cWith the current events, the person that we needed the most right now has been\nappointed to oversee a very serious case,\u201d Nathalia Fernandez, a Democratic state\nsenator whose district includes the southeast Bronx, said on Saturday at the\ncampaign event.\n\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/nyregion/hochul-james-cornell.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 6/7\n\n\n--- Page 34 ---\nFILED: ALBANY COUNTY CLERK 10/07/2026 06:21 P INDEX NO. 911974-26\n\npry Seo: BbY AN _ 121 Cornell Case Carries Far-Reaching Implications for Hochul and James the New. York Taess op : 10/07/2026\n\n\u201cWe all know what\u2019s happening at Cornell University,\u201d she added.\n\nCorrected on Oct. 5, 2026: An earlier version of this article misstated when the Tompkins County district\nattorney said he would revisit the 2024 sexual assault accusations.

Kathy Hochul of New York on Friday\nquestioned how Cornell University\u2019s police department and the local district\nattorney handled sexual assault allegations made by a former student, who said\nshe had been raped at a fraternity house in 2024.\n\nMs. Hochul said she had been troubled to learn that the student, identified as Jane\nDoe, had given an interview to the campus police about the episode that included\nan unequivocal statement that she had been raped. That language was missing in\nthe condensed statement that was sent to the district attorney\u2019s office in Tompkins\nCounty, N.Y., which decided not to file criminal charges.\n\n\u201cIn what world would the police learn from the victim that she had literally been\ngang-raped\u201d and not send that allegation to the district attorney, Ms. Hochul said at\na news conference in Manhattan.\n\nShe stood alongside the state attorney general, Letitia James, whom the governor\nhad just appointed to oversee a new investigation into the allegations.\n\nhttps:/Awww.nytimes.com/2026/10/02/nyregion/cornell-rape-jane-doe-hochul.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share 1/5\n\n\n--- Page 36
