On Friday, Gloria Scott,74, testified during the hearing that she was sexually harassed by the NFL star in December 2017 while she worked as a security guard at the Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans. Scott said Guice made explicit comments to her during his college football career as the star player for Louisiana State University. Additionally, Guice was accompanied by a group of friends when he made the comments and told Scott that he liked to “f**k older women” because women her age liked younger men to have sex with them.
"I had to come here today and let you all know that LSU hides a lot of things… This didn't happen on the campus, but still it scarred me."

Shortly after making the comments, Guise allegedly said to Scott, “You know you want this body” while rubbing himself and grabbing his genitals as his friends laughed on the side. The former security guard told Guise that her grandsons don’t act like him and he should show respect to his elders. The NFL star allegedly said in response: ‘F**k your grandsons. They don’t know nothing, you and I are going to the hotel so I could f**k you.’

Scott reported the incident to LSU but she said coach Ed Orgeron offered to have Guice apologize to her but she refused to speak with him. According to the Daily Mail, the testimony comes after state lawmakers opened an independent case where LSU mishandled several accounts of sexual assault and harassment among students along with domestic violence. The school was also accused of ignoring the cases completely.
Guice has denied all allegations of rape and sexual misconduct since the investigation has been opened.
