Louisiana DA opens probe into alleged sexual assault involving LSU student-athlete

The alleged assault may have occurred on LSU's campus in October 2025.

A Louisiana district attorney's office has opened a criminal investigation into an alleged sexual assault involving two Louisiana State University students that may have occurred on the university's campus in October 2025.

The East Baton Rouge District Attorney's Office said it is working with LSU Police, Baton Rouge Police and other agencies to gather evidence and information.

"To protect the integrity of this investigation and the rights of all involved, we will have no further comment at this time," the DA's office added.

The investigation comes after one of the student's recently spoke out on social media about how the university handled her report, questioning whether the school "really protect[s] their athletes, especially their football players."
