UFC newcomer and Olympic champion Gable Steveson, a protégé of Jon Jones, was arrested in June 2019 along with a teammate on charges of group sexual assault. The alleged victim went to a hospital and immediately filed charges. Due to limited publicly available information about the case, details remain scarce. Ultimately, the charges were 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 alleged incident. There were no witnesses besides the victim and the two wrestlers, and their accounts contradicted each other. While no direct evidence of Steveson's guilt exists, the law was subsequently changed after this case so that victim testimony is now considered by the court under any circumstances.
