New allegations have come out against former Washington running back Derrius Guice, with USA Today reporting on Wednesday morning that two women have come forward and accused him of rape during his time at LSU just a few months apart in 2016.
According to USA Today’s Kenny Jacoby and Nancy Armour, “a USA TODAY investigation found that the women’s allegations were shared at the time with multiple people at the school — including at least two coaches, an athletics administrator and a nurse — yet the school does not appear to have investigated.”
In a statement, Guice’s attorney Peter D. Greenspun denied all of the allegations and questioned the timing of the story’s release.
“At no time were allegations of physical or sexual assault brought against Derrius during his years as a student-athlete at LSU,” Greenspun said in his 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.”
Guice was recently released by the Washington Football Team on August 7th after being arrested for an alleged string of domestic violence assaults, of which he turned himself in for.
According to the report, USA TODAY started investigating this new report on August 3rd, just four days before Guice was arrested and released by the WFT.
