Colombia Affiliated Is Sued For Rape So Asks For 10 Years of Mental Records Getting Four

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 12, updated – Yutong Jin has sued Columbia University affiliate Solomon Choi for sexual assault. He has asked for ten years of her medical and mental records. 

 On January 12 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it, and will here report some of it. 

 Judge Vyskocil to her credit told Choi's two lawyers it was not fair for them to "tag team" a pro se plaintiff. They replied that since the plaintiff is accusing their client of given her a venereal disease, they have a right to know if she ever had one.

  Why not just two years before? Because, they argued, if she had it she would stop getting treatment.  

The complaint cites a South Korean drama, "Descendants of the Sun." We are leaving out other details. There is also a Title IX case at Columbia itself.

This case is Jin v. Choi, 20-cv-9129 (Vyskocil)

Update: The above accurate piece, which was followed up on by another piece here, has given rise to a threat of legal action which in fairness we publish here: "Dear Inner City Press,    I would like to request you to stop posting about civil suit between Solomon Choi and Yutong Jin.  This case has already been concluded after a settlement.  I am suffering continuous damage from the writing on this site even though the case is already over.  If you don't accept my request, I have no choice but to take legal action."
