The Douglas County District Attorney’s office will not pursue sexual assault charges and has concluded its investigation following the report of an alleged rape last December in the dorm that houses the Kansas men’s basketball team.
The alleged rape occurred between 10 p.m. on Dec. 17, 2016, and 5 a.m. on Dec. 18, 2016, at McCarthy Hall, according to a KU police report. The alleged victim, a 16-year-old girl, was not a KU student and was visiting residents at the dorm, police said at the time.
Cheryl Wright Kunard, assistant to Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson, released a statement Friday in regards to the investigation.
