Ban the Cornell 7 Permanently: No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service.
The Issue
In a horrifying incident that shattered lives and left indelible scars, Matthew Ingalls, Diego Sarabia, Winston Lee, Scott Kretzschmar, Scott Norris, Gillio Lopez, and Johnathan Newell—infamously known as the Cornell 7—committed an unspeakable crime. They subjected a woman to seven hours of torment, drugging, assaulting, and violating her, all while documenting their heinous acts and inviting others to join their atrocity. It is unspeakable that these men now walk free, with nothing more than an essay as a punishment for their abhorrent crime.
This travesty is not just a personal wound for me but emblematic of a system that consistently fails women, allowing perpetrators to live consequence-free. I too am a survivor, one who has navigated the aftermath of such violence—years of shame, judgment, and trauma. For many of us, memories resurface slowly and painfully, only for society to dismiss our agony, while the violators go unpunished. It is time we, as a community, say enough.
We call on all businesses, from nightclubs and hotels to restaurants and HR departments, to enforce a ban on these men. "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service" must extend to those who perpetrate violence against women. This is a call to action for everyone to stand in solidarity and send a clear message that such behavior is intolerable in our society.
Our judicial system has failed "Jane Doe," and fails countless others by allowing these social menaces light punishment. Our society steps back when it should be stepping up. We must act with vigilance and ensure that those who commit such acts bear societal rejection and face tangible consequences for their actions.
For the safety and dignity of women everywhere, and as a step toward a world where violence against women is no longer excused or overlooked, I implore you to join this movement. Demand accountability and protection for victims. Let us together foster a community that upholds justice as a societal responsibility.
Sign this petition to ban the Cornell 7 from public venues and spaces—where their presence constitutes a threat to safety—for a lifetime of accountability and change."
