A University of Arizona sorority member has accused two men of sexually assaulting her at a fraternity house in August.

The woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, told police the alleged assault occurred on August 26 at the Sigma Phi Epsilon house near the Tucson campus, according to search warrant records obtained by KOLD.

She said she had spent the evening at the fraternity house with friends, drinking tequila, before consensually kissing one of the men.

According to the search warrant, her next memory was waking up in a different room without her pants or underwear.

She later recalled two men—one blonde and one brunette—sexually assaulting her. The woman told investigators she believed she said, “please stop.”

The next morning, she walked back to her sorority house and noticed she was having trouble swallowing. The search warrant identified the symptom as a possible indication of strangulation.

She called her mother but said she did not remember making the call. After falling asleep and waking several hours later, she reported the alleged assault to the University of Arizona Police Department (UAPD).

On August 28, two days after the alleged assault, she called one of the men and recorded their conversation.

In the recorded conversation, the man acknowledged that he and the woman had sex but said he had been drunk and was “fuzzy” about what had taken place, according to the warrant.

He allegedly told her that only the two of them had sex, that no one else was involved and that she had consented.

On September 8, UAPD secured a search warrant for the Sigma Phi Epsilon house in an effort to obtain surveillance footage from the night of the alleged assault.

The fraternity’s national organization said it had directed members of the Arizona chapter to cooperate with the investigation.

“The Fraternity has suspended those involved while the investigation proceeds. Any member found responsible will be expelled from Sigma Phi Epsilon, and we will cooperate fully with law enforcement as it seeks accountability under the law,” Brian Warren, the organization’s chief executive officer, said in a statement.

As of Wednesday morning, the Pima County Attorney’s Office told the Daily Mail that it had not received the case and believed the investigation remained ongoing.

The Tucson Police Department told the Daily Mail that the investigation is being handled by UAPD.

The allegations came only weeks after the University of Arizona suspended fraternity activities following persistent reports of misconduct, including assault, hazing and drug- and alcohol-related behavior.

‘The number of cases under investigation and the severity of the concerns is egregious,’ the university’s Dean of Students Chrissy Lieberman said in a letter to campus Greek life on October 5.

The Daily Mail contacted the University of Arizona, UAPD and the fraternity’s University of Arizona chapter for comment.

Meanwhile, Cornell University’s Jane Doe gang rape allegations have rocked the Ivy League campus and sparked national outrage.

The woman filed a civil lawsuit claiming she was coerced into taking drugs and sexually assaulted by seven members of the Chi Phi fraternity at an off-campus house in 2024.  

Cornell has since banned all fraternity parties for the rest of the year and hired Sally Yates, a former Obama-appointed justice official who was infamously fired by President Donald Trump, to investigate its response to gang rape allegations.

The seven men, Umar Matthew Ingalls, Jonathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris and Scott Kretzschmar, have denied the allegations against them.

They have not been criminally charged, but the case has been reopened and a special counsel has been appointed to lead the investigation. 

Netflix is the world’s most popular streaming service, responsible for global hits such as Squid Game, Bridgerton and Adolescence.

But in recent months, the platform has struggled to attract audiences to its latest releases, as increasing numbers of subscribers look elsewhere for their television entertainment.

As Netflix shares have plunged and the company works to bring in new subscribers, executives have introduced sweeping measures. More than 1,000 jobs are being cut, while projects deemed to deliver ‘zero financial return’ are being abandoned.

It remains unclear which productions will be affected, but the restructuring is expected to have consequences for the Sussexes.

The executives who brought With Love, Meghan to Netflix and supported the Sussexes’ explosive documentary series about their relationship with the Royal Family are now out of work.

According to reports, Netflix bosses concluded that viewers would not sign up specifically ‘to see a Meghan show’. The company is therefore expected to move away from expensive ‘royal-linked vanity projects’ and concentrate on finding its next Stranger Things.

A Netflix insider said: ‘There is a huge restructuring. They had to make cuts as decisions were made that had zero financial return. I suspect that Harry and Meghan were part of that, because people are not going to subscribe to see a Meghan show.’

Harry and Meghan are not the only Netflix figures to have struggled to keep viewers engaged. Several series released this year have also emerged as expensive flops.

Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials – 19.89 million viewers

Despite its impressive cast and positive critical reception, Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials struggled to draw viewers.

Adapted from Christie’s 1929 novel, the three-part mystery starred Mia McKenna-Bruce as Lady Eileen ‘Bundle’ Brent, who sets out to unravel an enigmatic murder.

She was joined by Helena Bonham Carter, who played her mother, Lady Caterham, and Martin Freeman as Superintendent Battle.

The series earned a respectable 71 per cent ‘fresh’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Daily Mail critic Christopher Stevens gave it a rare five-star review, describing the show as a ‘frightfully glorious romp’.

Several Rotten Tomatoes critics praised the three-episode series as a stylish and easy-to-watch period drama, highlighting its costumes, sets and brisk pace.

However, the limited series failed to win over every reviewer. TechRadar’s critic argued that it lacked tension and revealed the killer too soon.

In the end, Seven Dials generated limited interest, with fewer than 20 million viewers watching during its first two weeks on Netflix.

Virgin River (Season 7) – 16.5 million viewers

Since launching to widespread interest in 2019, Virgin River has followed Mel, played by Alexandra Breckenridge, as she builds a new life after leaving Los Angeles for the rural town of Virgin River.

The sixth season ended on a cliffhanger, with Mel and her partner Jack, played by Martin Henderson, hoping to make their dream of adopting a baby a reality.

However, not everyone tuned in to see the outcome, with season seven experiencing a 12 per cent drop in viewership, with 16.5 million views in the first two weeks. 

The series as a whole holds a 66 per cent popcornmeter (audience score) on Rotten Tomatoes, which slumped to 56 per cent for season seven. 

Audience reviews stated: ‘An epitome of cliche. The writers of this series successfully gathered every formulaic soap opera situation you can think of and crammed it in.’

‘I’ve watched all seven seasons because I got hooked – characters, scenery, actually some good acting on the part of key characters – but the show seems to be trying too hard in season seven.’

It remains to be seen if the upcoming season eight will be able to win back viewers, having been renewed well ahead of the season seven premiere back in July 2025.

The early renewal meant that Virgin River is now Netflix’s longest-running scripted English-language live-action series, surpassing Grace and Frankie and Orange Is the New Black. 

Finding Her Edge (Season 1) – 14 million viewers 

Canadian teen drama series Finding Her Edge was one of the first new releases of 2026, being released in January to plenty of hype.

Adapted from Jennifer Iacopelli’s novel of the same name, the series starred Madelyn Keys as Adrianna, a competitive ice skater from a dynastic family, who embarks on a budding romance with her new on-ice partner Brayden (Cale Ambrozic). 

However, things are complicated by the fact she still has feelings for her ex-boyfriend and former ice partner Freddie, played by Olly Atkins.

Finding Her Edge holds a high 87 per cent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. When it comes to critic reviews, however, it drops down to just a 50 per cent audience rating on the popcornmeter. 

Regardless, Netflix seems to have faith in the series, having renewed the show for a second season shortly after its debut. 

Season two is currently in production and slated to be released on the streaming platform in 2027. 

Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen (Miniseries) – 13.32 million viewers

Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen received plenty of hype when it was released, yet this failed to translate to viewership. 

The mini-series was highly publicised given that Stranger Things’ bosses the Duffer Brothers were serving as executive producers, yet ultimately only received 13 million views. 

Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen launched on March 26, starring Camila Morrone and Adam DiMarco in lead roles.

The pair played engaged couple Rachel and Nicky – who soon face a harrowing obstacle to their upcoming nuptials.

The cast also included Oscar-nominated actress Jennifer Jason Leigh as Victoria, Nicky’s mother.

Meanwhile, Silence Of The Lambs star Ted Levine – who played Buffalo Bill – portrayed Nicky’s father, Boris.

The series was a hit with critics, earning an 84 per cent tomatometer score, although audiences weren’t as enthusiastic, with 63 per cent on the popcornmeter. 

While the show was pitched as a mini-series, showrunner Hayley Z Boston has expressed an interest in continuing the story, saying it ‘would be a great opportunity’. 

She added to Variety: ‘I’ve thought about the show as a potential anthology, and whatever that next existential fear is, I’d need to figure out what to explore there.’ 

Netflix has not announced any plans to renew the show. 

Vladimir (Limited Series) – 8.6 million viewers

Based on Julia May Jonas’s novel of the same name, Vladimir followed the story of a professor (Rachel Weisz) who develops an obsession with a younger colleague (Leo Woodall). 

The limited series earned a 75 per cent fresh tomatometer rating, while the Daily Mail’s critic Deborah Ross gave the series a five-star rating, calling it a ‘spellbinding, sexually-charged romp’ and ‘the best performance of Rachel Weisz’s career’.

She wrote: ‘Vladimir is a darkly comic exploration of desire, told in eight snappy episodes (each under 30 minutes), that is so sly and incisive and delicious I wish I hadn’t seen it so I could come new to it again.

‘As for its star, Rachel Weisz, this may be the best she has ever been. You will, I swear, be mesmerised, spellbound, transfixed, plus all the other synonyms in the thesaurus that could equally be deployed. Riveted, that’s another one.’

Conversely, the audience popcornmeter was a disappointing 55 per cent. 

One viewer shared their thoughts: ‘A mixed bag. Love the humour and Rachel Weisz is brilliant. But the plot becomes a bit meh as it goes on.’ 

Billed as a limited series, Netflix has not announced any plans to renew the show. 

Free Bert (Season 1) – 7.93 million views

While it was received well by critics and viewers, Free Bert ended up not having much pull. 

The series starred comedian Bert Kreischer playing a fictionalised version of himself as he moved his family to Beverly Hills to enrol his children in an exclusive private school. 

Bert’s unfiltered personality quickly rubs his neighbours up the wrong way, however, making the Kreischer family social outcasts in their new neighbourhood. 

Critics and viewers were aligned in their thoughts, with Free Bert racking up 71 per cent on the tomatometer and 70 per cent on the popcornmeter. 

Free Bert has been renewed for a second season, with Netflix noting it will be filmed in Atlanta, where Stranger Things was shot. 

Showrunners Jarrad Paul and Andy Mogel said of the news: ‘We’re incredibly grateful to Netflix for believing in this show and giving us the chance to continue the freeing of Bert.’
