Jury Deliberations Underway in Mateen Cleaves Sex Assault Trial
Jurors began deliberating in the 2015 sexual assault case against former Michigan State basketball star Mateen Cleaves after closing arguments. The nine women and three men panel heard the alleged victim say she did not want sex, while the defense claimed the act was consensual and the accuser lied over guilt about cheating. Cleaves, a 2000 NCAA champion with MSU, faced charges including criminal sexual conduct and unlawful imprisonment from the charity golf event aftermath.
