Meropi Kyriacou Honored as TNH Educator of the Year
NEW YORK – Meropi Kyriacou, the new Principal of The Cathedral School in Manhattan, was honored as The National Herald’s Educator of the Year.
RICHMOND, Va. — For the first time since Rolling Stone magazine’s shocking story about a brutal gang rape at the University of Virginia hit shelves two years ago, the public may hear from the young woman at the center of the now discredited article.
A defamation trial against the magazine is set to begin Oct. 17 over its article about “Jackie” and her harrowing account about being gang raped in a fraternity initiation.
University administrator Nicole Eramo claims the story cast her as its “chief villain” and is seeking $7.85 million.
Jackie was forced to answer questions about the case in April, but her comments have been kept under wraps.
Eramo’s attorneys say they intend to call Jackie as a witness at trial, although it’s possible the jury will watch a video of her deposition instead of hearing from her in person.
