2 more women who say they were sexually assaulted at Baylor join lawsuit against school
WACO -- Two women who say they were sexually assaulted while attending Baylor University have joined a Title IX civil rights lawsuit against the school.
The Waco Tribune-Herald reports "Jane Doe" plaintiffs 7 and 8 joined the federal suit Monday, both claiming the school failed to sufficiently investigate their cases.
Three women filed the initial lawsuit on June 15. About two weeks later, three more plaintiffs were added to the case. The two women who joined Monday allege that they suffered mentally and physically as a result of the school's inaction. A spokeswoman for the school declined to comment on the lawsuit.
"These two young ladies are making the tough choice to stand up and shine the light of day on what has really happened at Baylor," said Waco attorney Jim Dunnam, who filed the suit. "Despite Baylor's daily PR effort claiming accountability and transparency, what these eight young women have experienced and are still experiencing is the exact opposite."
