Statement of February 1, 2011, from Len Audaer
It Ends
February 1, 2011
Today I received a letter from Faculty Prosecutor Professor Gregory Germain via my lawyer Mark Blum. In the letter, Prof. Germain announced that he had decided that it was not in the best interests of the school to proceed with any charges. The SUCOLitis investigation is over, 109 days after it began. I am extremely relieved. Moreover I am indebted to my lawyer Mark Blum, to Adam Kissel and the good people of ֭, and to my countless supporters and friends. Without them I could never have made it this far. Thank you.
