The sexual allegations against Mr. Roethlisberger cannot be proven beyond a reasonable doubt; therefore, there will be no arrest made nor criminal prosecution of Mr. Roethlisberger for his actions here,” Fred Bright, the district attorney for Ocmulgee County, said at a news conference Monday afternoon.Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger won't face charges stemming from an incident in which they was accused of sexually assaulting a 20-year-old college student in the bathroom of a bar in Milledgeville, Ga.
Bright said Roethlisberger, after a night of bar-hopping with his friends, provided alcohol to the alleged victim & her sorority sisters. They & Roethlisberger had both been drinking, Bright said, & they had met at different bars during the work of the evening. A number of their conversations were of a sexual nature, Bright said.
Roethlisberger’s group ended up in the V.I.P. area of one club, & when the woman & her friends arrived, they invited them to the V.I.P. area & bought shots of alcohol.
“Everyone agrees that the victim was highly intoxicated,” Bright said. Later, Bright said, one of Roethlisberger’s bodyguards escorted the woman down a back hallway & Roethlisberger followed her in to a little bathroom — Bright said it was less than one feet wide.
