re: DA's office investigating alleged 2025 rape involving LSU football player, student

What is this, AI? This sounds less like a real story and more like an AI-generated screenplay that forgot to run a basic logic check.

So let me get this straight: a girl is allegedly raped, but supposedly doesn't press charges with the police because the alleged rapist asks her not to. Then his mother supposedly gets involved because she wants to protect her son's potential football career. Forget his character, money is so much more valuable then morals.....hmm makes you think how her son felt entitled to sex without permission in the first place. Then the alleged rapist decides to turn himself in anyway. Whew, he has a conscience after all, I was thinking we have a serial rapist in the making. And somewhere in this bizarre sequence, he supposedly gives her $1,000 to keep quiet proving money is a central element with him and his family.

Wait, what?

What exactly was the $1,000 supposed to accomplish? She didn't stay quiet. If there was an actual agreement, can he now take legal action against her?

I'm not saying an alleged victim has to behave according to some Hollywood stereotype of how a rape victim is “supposed” to behave. People respond to trauma differently. I'm saying that this particular collection of facts sounds so bizarre and contradictory that I want to see the actual evidence before accepting the story at face value.

Then there's Title IX.

Here's where my position is different from what people seem to assume. I don't believe colleges should automatically be expected to create or maintain women's sports simply because men are playing sports. If there isn't enough public interest, attendance, participation, or financial support for a particular women's sport, why should taxpayers, universities, or revenue-producing sports automatically be expected to carry it?

And I don't think women's athletics needs to imitate men's sports to be legitimate.

If there is an audience willing to support a women's team, great. Build it. If there isn't, then perhaps the market should tell us something.

Football is a completely different economic animal. It can generate enormous revenue, attract huge audiences, sell television rights, tickets and sponsorships, and create a massive financial ecosystem around universities.

So why should the solution automatically be: take the money generated by one sport and use government regulation to determine how another sport must be structured?

And now we've layered on top of that a maze of Title IX regulations, administrative proceedings, sexual-assault allegations, athletic eligibility, scholarships, careers, institutional liability and millions of dollars.

At some point, somebody needs to step back and ask:

How did we build a system this complicated and then convince ourselves that it's perfectly logical?

Maybe I'm missing something.

Or maybe we're living in a parallel universe where common sense entered the transfer portal and never came back.

Somebody please send me the coordinates for reality. I'm ready to return.

He was found liable, not guilty. They're not the same thing.

Honestly, it appears her intentions were to get more than 1k.

Where do you guys come up with this shite?

Saying no to 1K means she wanted more? There has been zero intimation that is the case. Perhaps she was (allegedly) raped and money couldn’t buy her off.

You’ve shown your bias already.

Yeah....nothing bizarre about this entire situation. Believe all women right, unless they republican.

An LSU administrative process found a football player responsible for the rape of a student but reduced his punishment on appeal, determining in part that no “force” or “malice” was involved and the athlete showed “an error in judgment,” documents show.
Documents from the Title IX hearing process, obtained by The Advocate, shed new light on allegations the student made public in a TikTok video posted earlier this month. In the video, the student said she is now pursuing criminal charges against the player and feels the university let her down.
On Tuesday, East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar Moore said his office was opening an investigation into the rape allegation, saying a criminal complaint was filed.
LSU issued a statement saying the university correctly followed the administrative process in handling the matter and is cooperating with the criminal investigation.
Documents show the incident occurred Oct. 18, 2025, and the LSU Office of Civil Rights and Title IX received an incident report Dec. 9. The civil rights office handles allegations of sexual misconduct among students through an administrative process.


The football player called LSU police the day of the incident, saying he had a sexual encounter with the student and that she was messaging him, claiming he raped her and threatening suicide, according to an incident report filed by a university police officer. LSU police met with her and took her to the hospital, where a sexual assault kit was completed, the report says.
During interviews with university Title IX investigators, the student and player provided conflicting information on what happened. Both said there was some consensual sexual activity, an LSU hearing panel found.
But the student said she never agreed to it proceeding to intercourse, the panel’s report said. The player said that he stopped after she told him to, the panel reported.

The panel determined the player was responsible for forcible rape of the student because the incident between the two went from consensual to nonconsensual. He did not ask for consent before intercourse and did not stop when he later asked and she was silent, the panel found.
The panel decided he should be suspended until May 31, 2027, the documents show. He would not be allowed on university property unless given prior approval. He also would be re-admitted only if he met counseling and other requirements, and the suspension would be recorded on his academic transcript.
The player appealed, noting the timing of the Title IX complaint, saying he should have been represented by an advisor earlier in the process and mentioning $1,000 received by the student from his family, among other issues.

In her TikTok video, the student said soon after the incident, the player’s mother asked her not to file a criminal complaint and ruin his career. The student said she accepted $1,000 from the player’s family early on, and filed a criminal complaint after learning he was back on campus.
The administrative law judge reviewing the appeal rejected the player’s arguments and upheld the prior decision on forcible rape. But the review judge changed the punishment from a two-semester suspension to four semesters of probation, the records show.
The original punishment was deemed too harsh, partly because while the athlete’s actions were nonconsensual, they did not “exhibit a deliberate disregard for complainant’s dignity and autonomy but was instead an error in judgment.”
In a statement after Moore announced the opening of a criminal investigation, LSU said the university had “properly followed its Title IX policies and processes to a conclusion.”
“Let me assure everyone that this incident has been handled professionally and that LSU has strictly followed our policies, procedures and best practices, including the Title IX process, to guide our actions to date,” LSU President Wade Rousse said in a statement. “Now that a criminal complaint has been filed, our role is to continue cooperating with our law enforcement partners as they work through their investigatory process.”
Moore said he has requested all reports, interviews, evidence and other records from LSU, the LSU Police Department, the Baton Rouge Police Department, the East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner’s Office and other agencies.

It’s so surprising people think our fanbase is retarded with gems like this

I didn’t comment on whether or not she should be believed but that’s cool you apparently hate women who claim they were raped

I’m going to be straight forward with you. In just what I’ve seen, I see issues and I just want to be honest with you. That doesn’t mean he’s not going to be arrested but it could mean he could be arrested and then it’s just…you want to talk about accountability, right? You can ask Detective Revet, we arrest people all the time and what happens? It just doesn’t get prosecuted, and they’ll just dismiss the case,” the two officers told the student in the video

The video she shared is heavily edited though. She conveniently leaves out what they talked about that caused them to have questions. I would like to see what they discussed prior to those comments.

I am not saying anyone is right, but I would like to see what they had concerns about with her side of the story.

The biggest thing I don’t like from her TikTok video is she ended with, “you know your truth.” Trying to rally up others to support her. I guess I’m becoming an old person, but I found that off putting.
