Amir Riep, a Cincinnati, Ohio, native, started his college football career by realizing a dream come true as an Ohio State Buckeye. That dream quickly turned into a nightmare in February 2020 when Riep and teammate Jahsen Wint were dismissed from the team after facing serious charges.
The legal process can be painfully long, and almost three years after being taken into custody, Riep and Wint were found not guilty and acquitted of the charges in January of this year.
