Ga. Tech player admits sex with accuser
ATLANTA, July 2 (UPI) --
Police reports allege Georgia Tech football player Jerrard Tarrant admitted to having sexual contact with a woman he is accused of raping. The official reports, published Wednesday by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, say Tarrant claims he and the unnamed woman, a student at Oglethorpe University, engaged in consensual oral sex the night of April 24. Tarrant allegedly claims he stopped when asked, while the victim claims he did not stop and raped her. Tarrant, 19, who was slotted as a possible starting cornerback for the Georgia Tech college football team, was released from jail Saturday on $40,000 bond after his arrest Friday. He has been suspended from the football team pending the outcome of his criminal case, the Journal-Constitution said. The alleged victim did not call Dekalb County, Ga., police until a day after the alleged assault, hesitating because she didn't want to see Tarrant get kicked off the football team, the police reports said. A medical examination found interior vaginal bruising but no traces of semen or male DNA were detected.
