No charges filed in San Diego State gang rape case, District Attorney’s Office says

SAN DIEGO — Former Buffalo Bills punter and standout San Diego State University football player Matt Araiza will not be charged in connection with the reported gang rape of a 17-year-old girl at an off-campus party last year, officials announced Wednesday.

The District Attorney Office said none of his former Aztec teammates will be charged in a case that rocked the university over the summer when news broke of allegations involving players on the team.

“Ultimately, prosecutors determined it is clear the evidence does not support the filing of criminal charges and there is no path to a potential criminal conviction,” the office said in a statement. “Prosecutors can only file charges when they ethically believe they can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.”
