I honestly don't see how anyone can say this 'appeals process' is anything but an absolute farce. Even if one is convinced all is well and fine with the way Title IX is implemented and has already concluded that these guys are guilty, how in the flipping world is two days of 9 hours of appeals, one guy after the other, even REMOTELY fair? You honestly think the evidence/testimony of the poor schmuck getting his turn at 8:00 PM on Friday night is going to get the same level of thoughtful consideration as the guy that leads it off? No flipping way. They are literally doing little more than going through the motions and checking the box. "Yep, gave them their appeal."
Slowly the details are coming out that show the HUGE flaws in this process. University personnel administering line-ups, and now marathon 'appeals' sessions. This is EXACTLY what Title IX opponents feared this ridiculous process would lead to. Absurd.
