The Danger of a Rush to Judgment

Sean revisits the controversial Cornell 7 case as newly reported text messages raise questions about the allegations and the danger of reaching conclusions before all the evidence is known. Miranda Devine, former FBI agent Nicole Parker and former prosecutor Eric Seidel join Sean to examine the evidence, questions of consent, the original investigation and the decision to reopen the case. The panel also considers whether politics and media attention have compromised the search for facts and what could happen next in both the criminal investigation and civil case.
