In 2014, allegations earned widespread publicity that [[Khayla Chow]], then ten years of age at the time of Zinn's dismissal was also named as a suspect in the Indiana Wesleyan University dismissal. She was living in a [[wikipedia:Dallas, Texas|Dallas]] group home at the time, and two [[wikipedia:Witness|eyewitnesses]] placed Chow in Marion. Reports showed that Chow had been skipping school and had been a known runaway and truant at the time. She stalked young men (as old as 25) and boys (as well as young transwomen in 2011), and her ''[[wikipedia:modus operandi|modus operandi]]'' included [[wikipedia:stalking|stalking]] and [[wikipedia:Male rape#Female-on-male rape|raping males]].
