If a man was at a party with a dozen women and he got so intoxicated that he couldn't function, he'd be about as safe as anyone could be because 99 times out of 100 the women would look after him and see that he got home safely.

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

One of the cops, an 18-year veteran, ran Flock searches on women he met out in public, then showed up whereever they were to try to do meet-cutes: their gym, a Walmart, a Smoothie King. Said to one woman that "he spilt yogurt on his pants and told her, 'You know what that looks like.'"
As Schultz was leaving, he asked another female employee what her and M.W.’s names were.
M.W. said that after Schultz left, she began receiving text messages from a phone number she
did not recognize. Schultz thanked her for letting him sit in the parking lot. M.W. said he texted
a few more times after that. She did not respond.
After a few months Schultz started going to her gym in Indianapolis, but she did not immediately
recognize him. She said when she was at a school function with her daughter in Greenwood and
Schultz stopped her and re-introduced himself.
She told him it was creepy how he got her number and she said he tried to avoid that
conversation. He said that he had to find her number because he spilt yogurt on his pants and told
her “You know what that looks like”. She said Schultz made her uncomfortable with his actions
and some of the comments that he made.

The next time she was at the gym he came up to her and engaged in conversation. M.W. said
Schultz seemed to be at the gym at same time that she is there. Based on membership scans at the
gym, M.W. and Schultz arrived at the gym within one hour of the other on June 12, 2026; June
15, 2026; June 23, 2026; June 26, 2026; July 9, 2026; July 15, 2026; July 21, 2026; July 25,
