Florence Pugh recently used her appearance on The View to speak out about the ongoing sexual assault case involving the Cornell 7. The actor, who is currently on a press tour for the Netflix project East of Eden, addressed the situation after co-host Sara Haines brought up her recent social media activity regarding the incident, Variety reported.
The Cornell 7 refers to seven male students accused of drugging and gang raping a female classmate at Cornell University in October 2024. The victim is now suing her alleged assailants, the university, her former sorority, and other parties. According to the attorney representing the woman, the initial investigation by Cornell led to the expulsion of only two students, while others received lighter sanctions like temporary suspensions or essay assignments.
