Judge orders College to cough up student and alumni disciplinary files in sex and drug lawsuit

Story here. Excerpt:

'The sex-and-drugs case of John Doe v. Reed College took a peculiar turn this week when a federal judge ordered the school to turn over nearly seven years of student disciplinary files to lawyers in the case.

U.S. District Judge Michael W. Mosman's five-page order Tuesday spells out specific records sought about current and former Reed students, including those accused of violating the school's Honor Principle, Sexual Harassment Policy, Discriminatory Harassment and Sexual Misconduct Policy or Alcohol and Other Drugs Policy.

It's not clear how many records that might include. But the school tallied more than 800 crime reports on campus for drug, alcohol and sexual violence during a three-year period ending in 2013, according to Reed's website.

A former student identified only as "John Doe" filed a federal Title IX lawsuit last April that accuses Reed College and his ex-girlfriend – identified as Jane Roe – of causing him to be wrongly expelled and falsely labeled a sex offender. In Reed and Roe's answers to the suit, Doe is described as someone who distributed drugs, arranged group sex, shared a homemade sex video and would have been tossed out of the college anyway.'
