Ex-USU football star Torrey Green found guilty of sexually assaulting 6 women

BRIGHAM CITY — Former Utah State football standout and NFL prospect Torrey Green has been found guilty of raping five women and sexually assaulting a sixth while he was a student at the school.

Eight jurors returned the verdict Friday following nearly 16 1/2 hours of deliberation, sustaining allegations of sexual assault brought by the half-dozen women and bringing the two-week trial to a close. Green was acquitted on some charges, including object rape and aggravated kidnapping.

Sentencing is scheduled for March 27.

Throughout the trial in 1st District Court, prosecutors argued it is impossible that six women who don't know each other could fabricate similar accounts of sexual assault by the same man, noting most of the women said they were assaulted while on dates in Green's apartment after he put on a movie.
