On Wednesday, former star LSU running back Derrius Guice has been accused of raping two women in 2016 when he was attending LSU. This comes after Guise was cut on August 7 by the Washington Football Team when he was arrested on domestic violence charges in an unrelated incident.
Guice’s attorney released a statement that pushed back hard on these allegations “At no time were allegations of physical or sexual assault brought against Derrius during his years as a student-athlete at LSU,” the attorney said in a statement. “To bring up such assertions only after the Virginia charges were initiated certainly calls into question the credibility, nature and timing of what is being alleged years later. Such speculation and innuendo should not be the basis for Derrius to be required to make any comment at all. But he wants to be absolutely clear. The allegations in this story are just that and have no basis in fact.”
According to reports by USA Today, these allegations were levied while Guice was still at LSU but school officials appeared not to conduct any sort of investigation into the matter even though the allegations were backed by other students and staff.
