Black Sports: Rutgers University football players among 10 charged in series of home invasions and assault NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. -- Several Rutgers University football players are among 10 facing charges in a series of assault and home invasion incidents. The Middlesex County Prosecutor said Thursday that four RU students and two former RU students were involved in the crimes. The investigation kicked off after police investigated a home invasion in New Brunswick on April 25, where three masked men forced their way into a house and stole cash and marijuana from five students at gunpoint. From that incident, police arrested 23-year-old Tejay Johnson, of Egg Harbor. He's a former Rutgers student and football player who was sidelined due to injury. He was a a three-star recruit. Police linked Johnson to another home invasion that happened on Harwell Street in New Brunswick two days after the first one. According to prosecutors, Johnson and 20-year-old Andre Boggs, of Coatesville, Pennsylvania, were armed with a bat and a knife when they forced their way into the house and robbed a student of $900 and marijuana. Boggs is also a former Rutgers student and played football at the school. As the investigation continued, police arrested another Rutgers student, 19-year-old Dylan Mastriana, of Rio Grande, after they say he helped planned the robbery. There was a third attempted home invasion that occurred at a dorm at Livingston College in Piscataway on May 5. Prosecutors said Johnson and Boggs were involved in that incident. Mastriana and 19-year-old Jianan Chen, of New Brunswick, planned that robbery, according to prosecutors, and 20-year-old Kaylanna Ricks, of Perth Amboy, drove the getaway car. In that incident, the would-be victims closed and locked their room - and the suspects fled without getting anything. The prosecutor's office said that the investigation also led them to connect Johnson to an assault incident on Delafield Street on April 25. In that case, Johnson and five others allegedly surrounded a group of four people and assaulted them. At least one of the victims in that case was a student at Rutgers, and the prosecutor said a 19-year-old suffered a broken jaw during the incident. Police later identified others they say were involved in the assault: 22-year-old Ruhann Peele, 20-year-old Nadir Barnwell, both of Piscataway; 20-year-old Rahzonn Gross, of Franklin Park; 22-year-old Delon Stephenson and his brother, 23-year-old Daryl Stephenson, both of Sayreville. Daryl Stephenson is a former Rutgers student. Peele is a fourth-year junior and cornerback at Rutgers. Barnwell is a football recruit from Piscataway High School, studying criminal justice. Gross is a fullback from Don Bosco Prep and also a criminal justice major. - (Black Sports) |

16 years after being gang-raped by 4 blacks - 3 Oregon State footballers - Brenda Tracy steps from the shadows     Her name is Brenda Tracy. In a chilling account, she detailed how she reported to police that she was sexually assaulted in 1998 by four men, three of them college football players. She said she was gang raped, sodomized, robbed, and then, re-victimized -- her word -- when a college football coach suspended two of the players for one game and was quoted as saying his players had made, "a bad choice." She reported the gang rape to police in 1998. She'd told investigators the men stood around, watching it happen and cheering the others on. At one point, she said she begged one of the men to make it stop. "I get sick of reading articles about how great a guy the coach is." That coach is Mike Riley. The team was Oregon State. Tracy's report to police and the ensuing investigation led newscasts, raised questions and divided public sentiment when it occurred 16 years ago. She has never before been identified as the victim and has never before talked publicly about it. Until now...Two Oregon State football players, defensive back Calvin Carlyle, then 18, and running back Jason Dandridge, then 20, were named as suspects in the report. Also identified as suspects were an 18-year-old Southern California high school football recruit named Michael Ainsworth and Nakia "Ken" Ware, a 23-year-old community college defensive back who was on probation for armed robbery in California. Tracy said: "I wish I'd have pressed charges." Tracy said her friend, Karmen McFadden, was dating Michael Ainsworth's (black) older brother, Greg, which complicated matters. - (Black-on-white) - (Sports) |
