Gable Steveson, the Olympic champion and protégé of Jon Jones who recently joined the UFC, was arrested along with a teammate in June 2019 on allegations of group sexual assault. The alleged victim reported to hospital and immediately filed charges. However, the charges were eventually dropped due to a legal loophole that prevented the victim's testimony from being admitted because she had voluntarily consumed alcohol on the evening of the incident. There were no witnesses other than the victim and the two wrestlers, and their accounts contradicted each other. While there was no direct evidence of Steveson's guilt, the law was changed after this case to ensure victim testimony is considered under all circumstances. The post notes there is limited information available about the case details.
