They filed a lawsuit because Jackie's description of them and the room at the fraternity house where she was raped was so accurate that their friends and family knew who they were from the Rolling Stone article, even though neither their names nor pseudonyms for them were ever mentioned by the article.
She was a first-year student during her first semester when she was raped. Everyone who raped her denied even knowing who she was, saying that they had never met her. How, then, was she able to provide that description to Rolling Stone?
That lawsuit is an admission of the rapists' guilt, rapists who are both admitting to their crime and expecting to be treated as if they are the ones who got victimized because the person whom they raped told someone what they did.
