MOSLEY

Former OSU tight end Jamal Mosley was accused of allegedly raping another student in March, according to an OSU police report.
The victim dropped the allegations on March 11 because she was afraid Mosley would lose his scholarship and the case was closed, according to the report.
Mosley left the football program on Aug. 31 after another student accused him of rape. On Sep. 3, he enrolled at the University of Tennessee where he said he hoped to continue playing football.
The police report said Mosley raped the victim at his Bost Hall apartment on March 6. The victim said she believed Mosley was intoxicated at the time of the incident, according to the report.
OSU spokesman Gary Shutt said no one in the athletic department was notified in March because the victim dropped the charges.
“The police handle things like that on a case-by-case basis,” he said. “It was a timing thing and the fact that the person who reported the incident did not want to report it.”

I disagree with dpp
would it not be fair to say that we should not be aware of news like this?
while it certainly isn't rape it sure isn't a matter to be unreported

It gives background information on the man's history. If he didn't want it to be damaging to his reputation maybe he shouldn't have been in the situations.

You had people on the other Mosley articles comment sections saying the exact same thing, yet you didn't say anything.

If you really think it's wrong, please look at the other papers in the state and tell me it is not pertinent news. The Tulsa World had the same story on its site Friday night and the Daily Oklahoman put it on its site shortly after.

the ocolly is very quick to jump on eye catching articles such as this, no matter the consequence to someone's reputation.

They don't care as long as they put the "accused of" and "allegedly" to cover their rears.

I am somewhat bothered by the fact that this was reported, considering he wasn't convicted of the first alleged rape. This is all speculative and very damanging for his reputation.
