The “train” thing was referenced by Judge’s gf in the New Yorker piece, & it has been lurking around in this story all along. I think it’s very likely that it’s a real thing thing that happened in the Georgetown Prep => Yale scene. More evidence is gonna come out.

If this part is true, it seems almost inevitable that reporters will find other witnesses in the coming days and weeks now that the seal is broken. https://t.co/vQ5u4GphUj

FWIW, my initial reaction, like a lot of people’s, was that surely it COULDN’T be true—or at least, sounded very unlikely. Groups of guys doing this repeatedly, not even hiding it from other party guests, and nobody ever reported it? Until I thought about it a bit more.

So it seems, nauseatingly, not nearly as implausible as it did on first read.
