American all-female competitive swimming star Riley Gaines visited San Francisco State University in April 2023 to speak about the importance of keeping women’s spaces reserved for women.

Ms Gaines claimed she was eventually assaulted, mauled by hysterical protesters and held virtually hostage in a room for hours.
Gaines seemed hopeful that San Francisco State University police might do something about the incident, but earlier this month campus police apparently discontinued the investigation, calling her concerns unfounded. I knew what I knew.

Said Fox News Digital reported this week that she recently wrote a letter to the San Francisco State University Police Department about the “I was taken hostage” incident.
“Could you please let me know when the investigation is complete?” Gaines wrote in a January email. “Could you please tell me what conclusions you have reached regarding the investigation and whether any charges will be brought against the person who threatened, threatened, and attempted to harm me?”
“Do you have a timeline for this? Do you need any additional information?” Gaines added.
“After a thorough investigation, the charges in this case are unfounded and have been suspended pending further evidence,” the female police officer who suggested Gaines was present at the incident said in an email dated February 2. “Yes,” he replied.
The officer said campus police wrote to Gaines in June and July of last year “requesting follow-up investigations into the incident,” but those inquiries “have been answered.”
Gaines told Fox News Digital that she provided sufficient testimony and public statements to campus police in April 2023 and was advised not to duplicate her efforts.
“We talked for hours. I told them over and over again what happened. During that time, both of the police officers I was talking to were there, so they It’s not like we weren’t talking.’ I don’t know what happened,” Gaines said.
In a Feb. 2 letter, the officer reportedly said, “Please provide us with any photos or videos you may have, as well as contact details of anyone who was present who may have digital evidence. He asked for “information.”
“Please do so. Then the incident may be investigated further,” the officer added.
The former NCAA swimmer revealed on X that there are plenty of media outlets to corroborate her claims, yet campus police suggested the claims were “baseless.”
SFSUPD reportedly did not provide comment to Fox News Digital.
Gaines believes the apparent reluctance to pursue the case further emboldens extremists.
“This only encourages what happened to me to happen to others because a precedent has been set,” Gaines said. “I don’t see this happening to liberal speakers or people whose views are contrary to my own.”
Gaines has received an outpouring of support in response to news that campus police have allegedly thrown in the towel.
Charlie Kirk, founder and CEO of Turning Point USA, told X: “This is outrageous. A violent mob held Riley Gaines for ransom, and San Francisco police “We have suspended the investigation into the Riley Gaines assault case. It was caught on camera!” His TPUSA students at SFSU are hosting Riley and will happily participate in the study. ”
