Per AP...

Police are investigating accusations that three
Notre Dame football players and a former player raped a female student who was lured to a house with promises of a party.

The woman told investigators she was raped March 28 but waited until last Saturday to report the crime because she knew it would be a high-profile case and feared her name would be made public.

The players' names were not released because investigators have not decided whether they will be charged, St. Joseph County police Capt. Harry Seider said Wednesday.

``They are still doing the investigation and interviewing people,'' he said. Notre Dame spokesman Dennis Moore said the university was aware of the investigation but that the school could not comment because of federal law protecting student confidentiality. He said the university was conducting its own investigation.

The police report said a university hearing was scheduled for April 17. Moore said he could not comment on the hearing.

Notre Dame coach Tyrone Willingham did not immediately return a telephone message left at his office. John Heisler, associate athletic director, said no players were being held out of spring practice for disciplinary reasons.

The 20-year-old woman said she was at a bar on March 27 and started talking to the four men. She said one of them told her there was a party at his house, but when she got there, there was no party.

She told police the men took turns raping her in a bedroom while the others held her down.

She said she was screaming and ``attempting to do her best to fight them off.'' After the attack, one of the men drove her back to campus, she said.

She went to a hospital on April 2 and called police on Saturday after seeking counseling, police said.

3 Bulldogs have been charged and released (of course) this week for supposedly raping a girl on campus in January.
(from the Atl. Consitution..."Three University of Georgia athletes accused in the alleged rape of a female student earlier this year were released on bond Monday. Basketball player Steve Thomas and football player Brandon Williams were freed on
$20,000 bond each. They face charges of rape and aggravated assault with intent to rape Jan. 14. Williams also is charged with aggravated sexual battery. Basketball player Tony Cole was released earlier in the day on $15,000 bond. Cole is charged with aggravated assault with intent to rape.")

Plus, half the football team has been in court on various charges (from DUI to marijuana possesion to starting a bar fight to domestic abuse, etc)

I won't be pissed at whoever is being accused until I find some good evidence that they did it. I hope it never happened. If it did, poor girl... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
