On a June afternoon in Manhattan, a woman reported being sexually assaulted aboard a crowded subway train — an accusation that, ten days later, reached the door of an 18-year-old Yale student named Ari Shtein. He has pleaded not guilty, and his attorney contests the allegations as both false and physically impossible. The case now moves through the slow machinery of justice, carrying with it questions about evidence, identity, and the weight of public judgment before a verdict is ever reached.
