In a blatant example of a school failing to protect a male student from false accusations of sexual assault, the University of Maryland-College Park (UMD) allowed an accuser and a powerful campus group to brand him a rapist even after the school determined he was not responsible, according to a lawsuit.
The male student, referred to in court documents as ‘John Doe,’ was a junior at UMD when he was accused of sexual assault by a female student, referred to only as ‘Jane Roe.’ Jane claimed in a formal complaint filed with the university on October 27, 2020, that she was sexually assaulted by John Doe and another student, referred to as ‘Jacob Poe.’
