Former Liberty football player Kyle Carrington has filed suit against Liberty University, LU’s spokesman Len Stevens, and the former Liberty student athlete accusing Carrington and others of sexual assault from August 2015. Carrington is seeking up to $50 million from Liberty, up to $50 million from the accuser, and $250,000 from Stevens.

Carrington, a former Flames wide receiver, filed suit Monday in Lynchburg, alleging violation of his Title IX rights by Liberty, two counts of defamation by LU, two counts of defamation against Stevens, and two counts of defamation against the former LU student athlete who accused him and two other football players of sexual assault related to an incident dating back to August 2015.

As we have previously reported, former Liberty football players Cam Jackson, Kyle Carrington, and Avery James were named in a statement of findings on sexual assault allegations in a news release by Liberty University.

The release stated, “On July 13, 2016, Liberty University received a report of sexual assault alleged to have occured off-campus in August 2015.” Further, the release states, “As a result of the investigation and a hearing held on September 8, 2016, two current students, Cameron Jackson and Kyle Carrington, and one former student, Avery James, were found responsible for violating the Student Honor Code and Liberty University’s Policy on Sexual Harrassment, Discrimination, and Assault.”

Carrington, Jackson, and James have now all filed a lawsuit in this case.
