Flint — Former MSU basketball star and NBA player Mateen Cleaves was found not guilty on all charges in his trial on sex assault charges, ending a case that began nearly four years ago at a Mundy Township motel.
The jury of nine women and three men began deliberations just after 1:45 p.m. Tuesday and delivered its verdict less than three hours later.
During closing arguments Tuesday morning, a prosecutor said the woman who has accused Cleaves of raping her did not consent to sex.
