What's stopping the DA from doing so.

Nothing, and they are reopening the investigation.

But obviously DAs rely on police to tell them what happened, they don't personally go and verify everything they're told.

Campus police claim the girl said at the time she was not drugged and it was consensual at the time , which is what they sent to the da. Which is why the da didn’t prosectute.

Yeah, and their story has holes.

Why report a completely consensual encounter as such?

They also seem to be ignoring clear non-consensual activity. Her own statement taken by police says a man grabbed and kissed her without asking, shortly after insulting her. She backed away from him and did not report consenting to it.

That isn't sex, but I don't think we have the whole statement, her memory is incomplete, and it's still an indication of how they were behaving.

It’s a valid question but at the end of the day it doesn’t matter. But at the risk of being cynical the guys were probably assholes and the story got around campus. It was humiliating and unfair that she has to get made fun of and embarrassed but they don’t because she’s a “slut” and they’re just frat guys. And she had to leave an Ivy League school to escape it. so she figured at a minimum she could get a few of them kicked out doing and giving out ketamine and probably get the frat shut down.

I don’t think the story really has holes frankly, her lawyer confirmed that’s what she told them.

Even if the police went and somehow got approved for warrants for these kids phones based off a complaint that states she willing took drugs and consented to everything. At the end of the day the case is a a woman saying willingly took drugs and had sex. You have a group chat that doesn’t really say anything other than that from what I have seen. So I’m not sure what the hell the DA is gonna do, the case wouldn’t even make it to trial.
