KU victim testifies in Chang sexual harassment trial
The 19 year old KU student testified she was asleep when Chang touched her and later tried to touch her, leading to a criminal trial where prosecutors argued sexual battery while defense contended implicit consent and lack of proof beyond reasonable doubt. The incident in Oliver Hall followed a party with friends from Ellsworth and involved IOA findings that Chang was responsible for sexual harassment and placed on probation. The case contrasted university standard of proof with criminal beyond reasonable doubt.
