Back when dinosaurs still roamed the earth (2016) Dhameer Bradley and Malik St. Hilaire were football players at Sacred Heart University in Connecticut. Nikki Yovino, of South Setauket, N Y made a rape complaint against them. They were suspended.
They have just filed a civil suit against the school and Ms. Yovino for slander and infliction of emotional distress. Last year Ms. Yovino copped a plea to interfering with police and filing a false report, so their burden of proof is not as high as it might be. It seems that Ms. Yovino voluntarily had sex with both of them at an off-campus party, then lied about it so her wannabe boyfriend wouldn't brush her off for being a skank.
The men are seeking unspecified damages from both Yovino and the school. The school has declined comment, as has Ms. Yovino's lawyer. I somehow feel that the real deep pocket here is the school. I don't know what exposure they have as the girl actually did file a police report, but without knowing the fine details it will be hard to say whether the school acted precipitously at the time.
