A jury has awarded a former Pacific University student nearly $4 million after he was falsely accused of sexual assault and removed from his doctorate program without due process.
Peter Steele enrolled in Pacific University, located in Washington County, Oregon, in the fall of 2016 to obtain a Doctor of Psychology. Between March and June of 2020, Steele began a sexual relationship with a fellow student in the program, Abigail Masters.
