Outside the Lines published a report on Friday about the “pattern of widespread denial, inaction and information suppression” when it comes to addressing sexual assaults on Michigan State’s campus and within its athletic department. Interviews and public records obtained by Outside the Lines show that at least 16 members of the Spartans football team have been accused of sexual assault or violence against women.
The report detailed an uncharged rape accusation against two former Michigan State basketball players and a pair of charges related to violence against women involving former undergraduate assistant coach Travis Walton.
On Friday, Walton was placed on administrative leave from his duties as assistant coach of the LA Clippers‘ G League affiliate. One of the basketball players accused of rape in the OTL report, Adreian Payne, was waived by the Orlando Magic‘s G League affiliate in Lakeland, Florida.
