Oregon Ducks freshman forward Brandon Austin and sophomore guard Damyean Dotson have been suspended and Dominic Artis is transferring, following a rape investigation involving all three men. After investigating and interviewing the victim, all three suspects and other witnesses, the district attorney declined to prosecute because of insufficient evidence.

"While there is no doubt the incidents occurred, the conflicting statements and actions by the victim make this case unprovable as a criminal case.

"The victim then said they physically prevented her from leaving the party and forced her into a cab with all three. She was taken back to an apartment leased to Dotson and Artis. She was taken into a bedroom there as well and says she just "gave up. I let them do whatever they wanted. I just wanted it to be over and to go to sleep." They didn't stop until she started crying.
