Cal Poly sorority sisters accused of making false rape allegation

Article here. Excerpt:

'A Cal Poly San Luis Obispo fraternity member filed a lawsuit last month against two sorority sisters for allegedly spreading a fabricated rape allegation.

The suit accuses Samantha Canik, a member of the Delta Gamma sorority, of alleging rape following a consensual sexual encounter. Her roommate and sorority sister, Sydney Walsh, then allegedly “involved herself in the assault on plaintiff’s reputation.”

“As a result of these baseless accusations, plaintiff has been expelled from his fraternity; shunned by former friends and classmates; and subjected to insults, humiliation, and emotional distress,” according to the suit. “Plaintiff seeks recovery for the harm to his reputation, for emotional distress, and for consequential damages according to proof.”'
