2 Women Claim Former Washington Running Back Derrius Guice Raped Them At LSU
Earlier this month, we reported that Derrius Guice was arrested on domestic violence charges and released from the Washington Football Team. Now, two women claim the former Washington running back raped them while he was a freshman at LSU. The two former LSU students say Guice raped them months apart at their own separate apartments in 2016, after nights of heavy drinking.
One woman says Guice showed up uninvited to a party she was hosting, entered her room while she was sleeping and raped her. The other woman, a former LSU tennis player, accuses Guice of raping her after the two met for the first time at a bar and went back to her house. Reports say the allegations were expressed to at least two coaches, an athletics administrator, and a nurse; however, the school did not follow-up with an investigation.

Responding to the claims, Guice’s attorney, Peter D. Greenspun, says, “At no time were allegations of physical or sexual assault brought against Derrius during his years as a student athlete at LSU. To bring up such assertions only after the Virginia charges were initiated certainly calls into question the credibility, nature and timing of what is being alleged years later. Such speculation and innuendo should not be the basis for Derrius to be required to make any comment at all. But he wants to be absolutely clear. The allegations in this story are just that and have no basis in fact.”
