0:00.0 | 12 women have filed a lawsuit claiming that Liberty University, the largest Christian university in the country, is enabling on-campus rapes. |
0:13.9 | And on this episode, one of the 12 Jane Does filing that lawsuit, as well as two of her allies, tell their story spanning 16 years. Welcome to the Roy's |
0:23.7 | report, a podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and restoring the church. I'm Julie Roy's. And joining me |
0:30.5 | today is a former Liberty University student who says that in 2005 she was gang raped by three men |
0:37.0 | on Liberty's campus. The woman, who |
0:39.5 | will call Kathy, says she reported the assault to Liberty, but the school never informed her |
0:44.6 | of her Title IX rights, nor did the school launch any investigation. In fact, to this day, Liberty |
0:51.2 | maintains that Kathy never reported her crime. This, despite the fact that the school was fined $120,000 by the Department of Education for failing to report Kathy's crime on its annual crime statistics. But this, Kathy says, is typical. When she was raped in 2005, she and her roommate pleaded with Liberty to make changes |
1:12.7 | to protect students, but Liberty Stonewalled. Then in 2020, Kathy and two key advocates met with |
1:20.1 | Jonathan Falwell, a longtime Liberty University trustee and the son of Liberty founder, Jerry Falwell, |
1:26.9 | Senior. According to Kathy, Falwell promised he |
1:30.0 | do something, but she says he's done nothing. A friend of Kathy's who was president at that meeting |
1:36.4 | with Falwell, Bethany Eufima, also joins me today. And she'll be sharing her own story from her time |
1:42.7 | at Liberty and telling how Liberty |
1:44.5 | weaponized its student code of conduct to punish both rape victims and students who got pregnant. |
1:51.1 | Also joining me as Kathy's roommate who confirms that Liberty not only acted indifferent to Kathy's |
1:56.5 | rape, it also placed students at risk of being harmed. What you're about to hear is a story spanning |
2:02.7 | 16 years that reveals a shocking pattern at liberty. It's also a story of incredible perseverance, |
2:09.6 | and it shows how three women who refuse to back down have forced Liberty University to face its |
2:15.4 | past sins and neglect. This is such an important podcast, and I truly |
2:19.9 | believe that every student and parent of a student at Liberty University needs to hear these stories. |
2:26.2 | But before we dive in, I'd like to thank the sponsors of this podcast, Judson University, |
