KSTP Exclusive: 80-Page Report Outlines U of M Investigation into Gophers Football Players [View all]

Welp, this is ugly. I'll admit to being kind of wait-and-see about this, and I have reservations about the internal processes at a lot of academic institutions. On the other hand, this report is just...heartbreaking. If you read it, be aware that it's detailed and disturbing.

The University of Minnesota authored an 80-page report after conducting an investigation into 12 Gophers football players.

University officials have said they cannot comment on their rationale for the discipline 10 players received due to privacy restrictions. However, the basis for their decision is laid out in a confidential EOAA report obtained by 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS.

The Minneapolis Police Department conducted its own investigation into accusations involving football players at an apartment in Dinkytown on Sept. 2.

5 EYEWITNESS NEWS is releasing both documents because we believe it is important for community members to be able to read and evaluate for themselves what Minneapolis police found in their investigation of the incident and what the University of Minnesota’s Office of Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action investigation concluded.

Both documents are graphic in nature.
