(Iowa City, IA) -- A jury trial in the case of two University of Iowa students accused of raping a girl at the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity will take place in July of 2023. Makena Solberg accuses Carson Steffen and Jacob MeLoan of raping her in September 2020 while she was drunk at a party. Solberg also accuses them of taking pictures of her without her knowledge. Both men say they had sexual relations with Solberg but that it was consensual. Steffen is charged with first-degree harassment and is suing Solberg for defamation. MeLoan faces no criminal charges.
