🇺🇸 The Cornell sexual assault lawsuit has taken another ugly turn, and now an innocent family is reportedly receiving threats over a case they have nothing to do with.
A NY judge ordered several court filings sealed after an incorrect address allegedly led online vigilantes to target a former Marine who simply shares a name with one of the defendants.
Judge Phaedra Perry-Bond called it “brash, reckless, and ultimately dangerous internet vigilantism,” warning that someone could get seriously hurt.
The lawyers have now filed corrected documents, but the judge made clear that the damage was already done.
And the situation is getting uglier on both sides: Jane Doe’s family was reportedly targeted in a separate swatting incident that brought armed police to their home.
