It's almost like she assaulted a man based off and accusation, and then when she gets hit with consequences she couldn't handle them. Probably the same reaction you would have when faced with accountability, based on your post.
Sexual assault was reported to Stanford Title IX which ignored it. Her teammate was underage and a football player sexually assaulted her. She was riding her bicycle and spilled coffee on the football player. The football player took it as due Justice and didn’t file a compliant. The Dean heard about the incident and went after the star soccer player with 4.0 GPA. He was trying ruin her life. Keeping her out of law school, etc. It’s legitimate lawsuit.

@@bryanking7745 Her mind was not sound, killing yourself over a reprimand is demented. She wss aggressive and judgemental. Perhaps the football player was innocent, whoever she was.
The lawsuit is a little extreme considering Stanford isn't directly responsible but my question is was anything ever investigated regarding what the football player did that provoked Katie's coffee attack on him! Defending her friend and teammate is commendable and coffee is nowhere near worth drawing a punishment as compared to an inappropriate assault on someone! The family though doesn't have enough of a leg to stand on here! Katie did what Katie decided to do, no one made the decision for her! It's a shame a life was lost but it was her choice

I don't know anything about soccer. How will the US women's soccer team be chosen for the next Olympics? How mesmerizing is an Olympic Gold? If you get expelled from one college, you can eventually graduate from another college and get on with your life. If you took the law into your own hands and bullied a classmate, the law schools won't like that. But you can grow up, repent, and eventually get into a law school somewhere, someday. In the meantime, you can work retail like everybody else. She was a bully, a coward, and a quitter. But then, the Olympics are only once every four years and athletes get old. What if the Olympics was the only thing that you ever really wanted, and you had thought that you had a chance at it? She doesn't sound like someone with a dry legal mind in any case, so whose idea was law school?
She had personal issues, know one takes their life because of a pending disciplinary action. Shame on the family for not getting their daughter the help she needed. Sadly today in our country, its always someone else's fault. Can't be we failed as parents and didn't step in, before she ended her life. Sad for everyone, it didn't need to happen.

The school did nothing wrong. Meyer's had no way of knowing if her teammate was telling the truth but decided to throw coffee on another student. According to some reports there was an "injury" involved so its likely hot coffee. Ignore the context of the allegations against the other student. Meyers isn't the enforcer for school discipline. She threw hot coffee on another student and was being disciplined for it as she should. If the guy did assault her teammate I hope he gets everything coming to him but that doesn't make her actions right and it doesn't make it the schools fault for enforcing rules.

Although I can respect as Soccer team captain standing up for a teammate, there’s also a responsibility to lead by example. Vigilante justice was inappropriate for the face of women’s soccer at Stanford and there needed to be accountability. She must have felt that accountability price was too high in light of the circumstances. Stanford is a filthy rich expensive school. It seems the disciplinary action could have been handled better in person instead of be email.

Women that lie about SA need hard time had she lived, she deserved 5 years in prison for her acts. She was absolutely unstable and to keep defending a liar is why real SA victims never get justice.
Throwing scalding hot coffee on someone is erratic behavior. Committing suicide over one unpleasant letter in your mailbox is erratic behavior. Head shots in soccer can cause brain damage. How many years had she played soccer and at what positions? Was she recently acting or speaking erratically? If the girl couldn't face the consequences of her actions, is it possible that she was terrified of how her high-pressure parents would react to her being less than perfect? Or had her parents never made it clear that there will be consequences to bad behavior, and she died from the surprise? Lawsuits are tacky.

The football player took it as due Justice and didn’t file a compliant. The Dean heard about the incident and went after the star soccer player with 4.0 GPA. He was trying ruin her life. Keeping her out of law school.
Although I can respect as Soccer team captain standing up for a teammate, there’s also a responsibility to lead by example. Vigilante justice was inappropriate for the face of women’s soccer at Stanford and there needed to be accountability. She must have felt that accountability price was too high in light of the circumstances. Stanford is a filthy rich expensive school. It seems the disciplinary action could have been handled better in person instead of be email.

The soccer player was a star athlete with perfect grades heading to law school. Her mind was sound. As a healthcare worker no psychiatrist will sign off on her not being of sound mind.

Good points. The more I learn about thus the more I agree that a lawsuit is in order. Katie is a hero in my book.
@@jeffreymarshall4572 no she isn't and you're simping for a liar. She took the law into her own hands when an innocent guy never SA'ed anyone. She assumed andit got her in trouble. Women that lie about SA need hard time had she lived, she deserved 5 years in prison for her acts. She was absolutely unstable and to keep defending a liar is why real SA victims never get justice.
Throwing scalding hot coffee on someone is erratic behavior. Committing suicide over one unpleasant letter in your mailbox is erratic behavior. Head shots in soccer can cause brain damage. How many years had she played soccer and at what positions? Was she recently acting or speaking erratically? If the girl couldn't face the consequences of her actions, is it possible that she was terrified of how her high-pressure parents would react to her being less than perfect? Or had her parents never made it clear that there will be consequences to bad behavior, and she died from the surprise? Lawsuits are tacky.
Very good reasoning, as opposed to blondie's mindset.
Riding her bicycle spilling coffee on a football player for sticking his tongue down her 17 yo teammate’s throat w/o permission. She’s captain of the soccer team who won a national championship. The soccer team told the police and school which didn’t nothing per usual. The football player didn’t complain about the coffee either. It’s called due Justice. The Dean heard about the incident and went nuts and tried to ruin the Captain of the soccer team’s life.
@@bryanking7745 In what way would her entire life have been ruined if she had pulled herself together, grown up, made the best of things, understood the criticism, and avoided childish food fights in the future?
@@altolows7635 you’re underestimating how bad girls are treated. Just recently a dad that owned a business for decades in a town was run out of the town cause his daughter was raped by a football player in high school and the town retaliated caused his daughter pressed charges.
SEC Title IX courts are famously known as worse than kangaroo courts. Meaning legitimate cases rejected.
Girl Scouts of America has a section on their website dedicated to how often teenage girls get grabbed, assaulted and nothing is done.
@@bryanking7745 NO due justice. Read the letters/plural that sent her spiraling.
Good Stanford to be sue until they admit wrong doing.
Except they didn't do anything wrong, today's kids break down over nothing, believe me it's a traumatic event at work if we ask a 20 something to get off his phone and empty the garbage cans...a melt down ensues and he goes home. Same guy who got a stomach ache a day before Thanksgiving.
As heartbreaking as the tragedy was, I don’t think Stanford did anything wrong.
@@hendricksonrunner5015 that's the parent's fault for raising their kids to be weak. Boomers/gen X and their consequences have been a disaster for the human race
Stanford’s sending the message that rape isn’t that serious. SUCH ARROGANCE!!!!!!
This is absurd. The parents raised a weak kid and now want to be paid for it. Glad shes gone
So you are OK for Sexual assault. So you are another human behave like an animal.

Life can be very stressful. Only the strong survive.

Wow IC! Your level of compassion! I don't know if it defines you as a human being, but it says a lot about your character to wish death upon someone! Do u have experience as a bully because that's how you come off sounding with your comment!
Le Bo Nasty. Hairy. 😂😂😂😂😂
We want equal rights…… oh wait
