Rape Charges Against Local College Hockey Player Dismissed

On October 9, 2018 a woman residing in a Merrimack Valley town went to the police station to report that she had been raped twenty six months earlier by a local college hockey player. The woman detailed an incident that allegedly occurred at a house party. The woman complained that the defendant whispered into her ear and tried to get her to touch his private area. He attempted to put his hand down her pants several times. She drank some beer and felt as if her arms “weighed a thousand pounds”. She next remembered laying on a bed next to the defendant. He was holding her arms and wrists and forced digital penetration of her vagina. This was followed by him putting on a condom and raping her with his penis. Her statement to the police resulted in rape charged being filed under G.L. c. 265 Section 22(b) and drugging for sexual intercourse G.L. c. 272 Section 3. The defendant hired Attorney Stephen Neyman. Today, all charged against the man were dismissed.
