Former Idaho football player faces trial on rape charge after alleged victim testifies

The woman who alleges she was raped by former University of Idaho football player Kyree Curington at a campus dormitory in December shed several tears and reached for tissues multiple times during an almost two-hour examination Thursday in Latah County Magistrate Court in Moscow.

Judge Megan Marshall even called for a five-minute recess after the woman was overcome with emotion trying to recount details of the early hours of Dec. 7.

After a roughly four-hour preliminary hearing, Marshall found sufficient evidence to bind Curington over to Latah County 2nd District Court, where he pleaded not guilty in front of Judge John Judge to the felony rape charge.
