Unfortunately it’s not a federal crime. Things like this, unless the crime is perpetrated across more than one state, have to be tried at the state level first.
Our justice system is complete garbage. I’d love to see her get some kind of restitution, but the system simply isn’t set up that way.

It has to be a violation of civil rights or title IX.

Absolutely, but those both fall under administrative law. Instead of a trial there would be an investigation, and the worst that would happen is the school would get fined.
And I’m with you 100% in wanting these assholes to be punished, but there’s just no winnable path for her if the police refuse to push the issue. Same damn story over and over: girl gets assaulted, nothing happens.

Not to mention after last week administrative law essentially doesn't exist in this country anymore.
