A former University of Maryland basketball player accused of having sex with a drunk woman without her consent was acquitted Thursday of all rape and sex offense charges after two hours of deliberations by a Prince George’s County jury.
The case against Damonte Dodd, 25, turned on whether the 18-year-old he met at a College Park bar on Halloween two years ago was too drunk to agree to have sex with him.
No compatible source was found for this media.
Dodd, who recently played professional basketball in Poland, testified that although the woman had been drinking with him earlier, she was having coherent conversations with him and never explicitly said “no” to him before they had sex.
