campus sexual assault

The University of Idaho has reached a settlement in a lawsuit brought by a woman who said school officials told her to transfer to another campus if she didn't want to continue attending classes with a student who sexually assaulted her.

The announcement came Thursday from Whitman County Prosecutor Denis Tracy in the case of Daniel Hargraves. The case ended in a mistrial Sept. 18 when the jury failed to reach a verdict.

"Unbelievable" is based on a true story about a young woman named Marie who was sexually assaulted and pressured by the police into recanting her story.

A Whitman County judge has declared a mistrial in the sexual assault case of a former Pullman Police officer. Daniel Hargraves was accused of assaulting a Washington State University student.

A Pullman Police officer who was arrested for custodial sexual misconduct resigned from his position on Monday, a day before he was to be interviewed by Pullman Police investigators.

Among the significant changes is that schools could make it harder to prove allegations. Instead of only a "preponderance of the evidence," schools could demand "clear and convincing evidence."
