Michigan State players violate campus policy
EAST LANSING, Mich.
Michigan State University investigated an alleged sexual assault and found that three football players violated campus policy, a lawyer said Tuesday.
Michigan State said federal law bars it from releasing the report or discussing the findings. But the report was shared with attorney Karen Truszkowski, who represents the woman who filed the complaint.
Truszkowski said the players violated policy, but she declined to elaborate.
Michigan State spokesman Jason Cody confirmed the end of the investigation Monday but said he couldn’t talk about any aspect of it.
The players, whose names haven’t been released, now will go through a disciplinary process, with penalties ranging from probation to expulsion from school.
“As to what will happen, I can’t speculate,” Truszkowski said.
