re: Mizzou Admits They F*cked Up Sexual Assault Case of Student Athlete

Directly from the report:

"Though the therapist did not have a recollection of Sasha Menu Courey telling her that she told the college counselor she was raped"

Continuing that statement:

"[the therapist] believed that [Courey told Anderson of the rape] was the conclusion to be drawn from a review of her notes and knowing that the only hesitation for Sasha was related to the rape incident."

"[the therapist] believed Sasha's May 12 diary entry accurately reflected Sasha's recollection of the conversation between the college counselor and Sasha Menu Courey."

Again, Courey recorded that she told Anderson of the rape. The therapist drew the same conclusion from her notes. The therapist (and the investigators) did not believe that Courey's diary entry was fabricated.

We can disagree on whether or not Anderson accurately recited the extent of her knowledge of the incident to investigators. She may have been told expressly about the rape, she may have misheard due to noise in the restaurant (as discussed in the report), or she may have just been told that something bad happened that made Courey not want to come back to school.
