LSU and 10 former students have reached a settlement in a case involving alleged mishandling of sexual assault and domestic violence complaints against football players and others at the university. The case, which was filed in 2021, was dismissed by US District Judge Wendy Vitter after the parties agreed to resolve the dispute amicably. The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed.
The civil case included allegations against former star running back Derrius Guice and former LSU women's tennis player Jade Lewis. Guice was accused of sexual misconduct by four plaintiffs, while Lewis claimed that LSU failed to respond adequately to reports of domestic violence in her relationship with former Tigers receiver Drake Davis.
