Ex-South Park writer launches ‘Cornell 7’ website against accused rapists: ‘Nobody to tell me I’ve gone too far’ ‘I have no limits. No boundaries. Nobody to tell me I’ve gone too far,’ satirical writer Toby Morton said with the announcement of TheCornell7.org website - Bookmark Become an Independent member to bookmark this article Already a member? Log in A former writer for South Park has unveiled a website intended to expose the seven Cornell University students accused in a lawsuit of taking part in a gang rape — warning the former fraternity members that “accountability is coming.” Satirist Toby Morton launched TheCornell7.org over the weekend to address the seven Chi Phi fraternity brothers accused in a lawsuit brought by a 20-year-old female former student of drugging and raping her at their house in Ithaca, New York, in October 2024. Prosecutors have said they are reopening the case to see if there are grounds for criminal charges, but said the allegations in the civil complaint the woman has brought are “dramatically different” from her statement to police at the time “I successfully acquired TheCornell7.org, along with domains associated with the 7 r*pists at the center of this story and Cornell administrators, including Cornell’s President,” Morton wrote on Instagram Friday. “TheCornell7.org is live…don’t f*** with me.” In a follow-up post on Saturday, he noted, “I not only own variations of your domain names, but I now have photos. I’m now slowly finding out where you work.” He warned the accused that he had also bought the domains related to “those employed at Cornell who gave you a break, and I’m coming for them too.” The university has been accused by the woman’s legal team of failing to adequately punish the students over the alleged incident, a characterization Cornell disputes. Morton wrote that he’d received messages “reminding me I’m not a journalist, I’m ‘just a satirist.” “This is true,” he noted. “But this makes me far more dangerous. I have no limits. No boundaries. Nobody to tell me I’ve gone too far.” Morton warned in the post that “there will be ads, there will be billboards. This isn’t going away.” It’s not the first time the comedian has bought domain names and created websites as a form of activism. He purchased TrumpKennedyCenter.org last year, and owns several other websites mocking President Donald Trump and other politicians. Tomkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten said Monday that his office will present evidence to a grand jury. The lawsuit, reopening of the investigation and Cornell’s response have sparked widespread reaction across social media. The reopening of the case comes weeks after the accuser, identified as Jane Doe to protect her anonymity, alleged in a lawsuit that she was drugged and sexually assaulted in a brutal, hours-long attack by seven members of the Chi Phi fraternity at Cornell in October 2024. At the time of the alleged assault, Doe was 20 years old and a member of a sorority on campus. She became completely incapacitated while frat members were sexually assaulting her, the graphic 101-page complaint alleges. In the lawsuit, Doe alleges that fraternity members urged her to take a substance they claimed was ketamine before the assault. After the initial assault, one of the men sent a message in the fraternity’s Snapchat group stating there was “free p***y” and inviting others to join. The filing details disturbing abuse including men snorting lines of ketamine off her body, moving her between rooms and continuing to rape and sexually assault her while she was incapacitated. None of the seven fraternity members have been criminally charged. Out of the seven male students named in the civil filing, two were expelled from the university, according to Doe’s legal team. The other students allegedly involved were said to have received lesser punishments, which reportedly included temporary suspensions, required workshops or essay-writing assignments, according to the complaint. “Any suggestion that the university did not impose consequential punishments for those involved is false,” Cornell said in a statement. “A continuation of the false narrative that there were minimal consequences in this case is irresponsible, will make survivors feel less safe and supported, and will perpetuate the underreporting of sexual assault.” An attorney for Scott Kretzschmar, one of the men named in the lawsuit, told ABC News the incident did not happen. Jeremy Saland said: "At bottom, Scott never sexually assaulted or even touched the plaintiff in any way. Period. We look forward to confronting the plaintiff in a court of law for her selfishly false claims with both the evidence and her own words.” The Independent has contacted Saland Law for comment. Scott Norris, another of the men named in the lawsuit, told ABC News through an attorney: "I did not participate in any sexual activity or drug use. I was not found responsible by Cornell for any of the accusations involving sexual activity and drug use for which others received serious consequences. I thoughtlessly engaged in Snapchat and briefly stopped in the room where misconduct happened but not when it happened." In a statement Monday, Cornell’s Vice President for University Relations, Kyle Kimball, said the school supports the district attorney’s decision to reopen the investigation. “Cornell also conducted a thorough Title IX investigation, which is separate from a criminal proceeding, over the course of several months. During that investigation, temporary suspensions and other restrictive measures were used. After investigation, and pursuant to federal law, the matter was sent to a hearing where a panel of trained faculty and staff heard evidence over multiple days,” the statement read. “The complainant and respondents had the opportunity to testify and present evidence. At its conclusion, the hearing panel issued a range of sanctions, which included expulsions and suspensions from Cornell. None of the individuals charged were offered the opportunity to write essays as a sole consequence of their involvement.” The university noted that the fraternity had been closed in 2024 and remained prohibited from campus since. “Any suggestion that the university did not impose consequential punishments for those involved is false,” the statement added. “A continuation of the false narrative that there were minimal consequences in this case is irresponsible, will make survivors feel less safe and supported, and will perpetuate the underreporting of sexual assault.” For those affected by rape and sexual abuse, if you are in the United States, you can call Rainn on 800-656-HOPE (4673).
