Woman drops rape lawsuit against Baylor frat president after settlements

A former Baylor student who accused a former Baylor University fraternity president Jacob Anderson of raping her at an off-campus house dubbed the “Phi Delt Ranch” has resolved her lawsuit against Anderson, the fraternity and 18 former fraternity members.

The woman, identified only as Donna Doe, dismissed her lawsuit Friday against Anderson, former president of Phi Delta Theta fraternity. She alleged in the suit that Anderson raped her at a party in 2016 at the house in the 2600 block of South Third Street.

In the last few months, the woman has reached confidential settlements with 17 defendants, including the local Baylor chapter of Phi Delta Theta and the national organization, which Baylor suspended from campus after the allegations surfaced.

Her decision to dismiss or non-suit the remaining defendants, including Anderson, came as Monday’s court-ordered deadline approached from 414th State District Judge Vicki Menard for the plaintiff to disclose amounts of settlements she reached with defendants in the case.
