[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's actually good to hear the local police got involved. At least then he can be ensured of a fair trial and due process. Way too often, universities handle this in-house, without following due process (which both sides deserve).

The schools seems too quick to expel him, since the courts have not tried his case yet, but I guess they have a lower standard of proof.

My friend hired a lawyer that lives in the town where the university is located and he told her that when the disciplinary board met, he would absolutely be expelled since the local PD investigation led to an arrest.  He said this university is one that always sides with the side of the victim and that as soon as an arrest is made, the other parties fate is sealed at the university.

I almost got the impression that what she was most upset about was him being expelled vs. the actual charge because she feels like "the boys have no one standing up for them even though no jury has convicted him."

I think she wanted more outrage from us.  I just got that feeling after she told the story.  [/quote]
