The Spin
Narrative A
After being branded a rapist without due process, Ingalls is understandably using the same ambiguous legal standards to defend himself. This entire saga is full of degeneracy and confusion, and it would be unfair to allow sympathy for only one party based solely on gender.
Narrative B
While the legal process must continue, this horrific incident shows exactly how rotten frat culture has gotten, and campuses keep shielding it. Survivors often need weeks to name what happened, so a delayed report and shifting details prove nothing beyond how brutal the reporting process is.
