EAST LANSING – Auston Robertson is facing a sexual assault charge after police said he raped a woman in her apartment and has been kicked off the Michigan State University football team.
Robertson had walked the woman to her apartment sometime after 11 p.m. on April 8 to make sure she got there safely, and then once they were inside the apartment he "forcefully" had sex with the woman despite her "telling him to stop and telling him no," Meridian Township police detective Rebecca Payne testified during a hearing Friday morning.
Robertson, 19, of Fort Wayne, Ind.
