Former Butler PF Carlos Johnson Charged with Rape, Attempted Rape, Sexual Battery

Butler University confirmed men's basketball player Carlos "Scooby" Johnson is no longer in enrolled at the school as he faces multiple sexual assault charges stemming from an incident inside a school dormitory in February, according to David Woods of the Indianapolis Star.

Woods reported a probable cause affidavit was filed Thursday in Marion County, Indiana—where the school is located. Butler said Johnson was charged with rape, attempted rape and sexual battery.

The 19-year-old did not play for the men's basketball program following knee surgery last August.

Per a Butler statement:

"The University takes these allegations very seriously and has a zero-tolerance policy for sexual misconduct, violence, and harassment, per our Sexual Misconduct Policy, our top priority is the safety of our students and campus community, and the University provides support and resources to all students.
