Sex-related charges filed against 2 ex-UW crew members

Two former members of the University of Washington crew team have been accused of distributing intimate images after having sex with female students.

Tyler J. Minney and John C. Young are each charged with disclosing intimate images. Court documents say the two had sex with a female student, now 19, when she was drunk. They filmed the encounter and distributed it to classmates, court documents say. Court documents say the woman discovered only months later that there had been a sexual encounter and that it had been filmed.

Minney faces a second count of disclosing intimate images. He is accused in court documents of taking a photograph of another sexual encounter with another intoxicated female, now also 19, and distributing the photograph to classmates. Court documents say the woman had little memory of the sexual encounter and didn't know about the photograph until a friend showed it to her.

Disclosing intimate images is a gross misdemeanor.

Tyler, 19, is from Folsom, California, court documents say. Young, also 19, is from Brewster, New York. Neither is in custody.

The court set bail in the case at $30,000 for Minney and $20,000 for Young.

The UW said in May that two members of the crew team had been suspended because of a criminal investigation into sexual encounters.
