For months there has been speculation as to who the three players involved in the sexual assault case were, that question was answered Tuesday morning when Corley, Vance and King were charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct.
Third-degree sexual conduct is a felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. King also faces two other charges — first degree criminal sexual conduct and capturing/distributing an image of an unclothed person.
Dantonio and Hollis are scheduled for a noon est press conference. Stay tuned for updates.
