CNN —Three former New Mexico State University basketball players have been charged with felony sex crimes and other offenses over allegations they were hazing teammates and student staff members – accusations that helped prematurely end the team’s 2022-23 season – the state attorney general said Thursday.
The offenses are alleged to have happened from August to November 2022, grand jury indictments released by Torrez’s office say.
Washington, a junior guard last season, and Bradley, then a sophomore forward, each face five counts of false imprisonment and criminal sexual contact.
CNN has sought comment from the attorney general’s office and New Mexico State University.
The Aggies resumed their men’s basketball program under a new coach, and the team played its first two games of the 2023-24 regular season this week.
