A former Covington Catholic High School basketball standout who once had a scholarship offer from Xavier University has been arrested and charged with rape and sodomy.

Jacob Walter, 18, of Burlington was arrested by Boone County sheriff's deputies Tuesday. Walter, son of former Bengals player Joe Walter, also had a protective order issued against him Monday.

Detectives were notified Sunday of a sexual assault allegation involving Walter and an 18-year-old female. She reported that throughout the day Sunday, he forcefully raped and sodomized her, according to the Boone County Sheriff's Office.

The victim stated she was fearful of Walter, "due to his size, strength and aggressiveness" and told Walter that she did not want to have sex with him due to her not feeling well that day, Boone County officials said in a news release.

Authorities say on two occasions, Walter sodomized the victim while holding her down and pulling her hair, which resulted in physical injury. They say he dismissed the victim by laughing at her and telling her she would be fine.

"The victim told a family member about the sexual assaults and the family member was able to get Walter to leave the residence," authorities said.

The victim sustained contusions to her right arm, contusions to her right breast and a laceration on her chest.

After leaving the residence, authorities say Walter began texting and calling the victim multiple times saying he was sorry. A family member of the victim contacted the sheriff’s office to report a sexual assault.

Walter has been lodged at the Boone County Detention Center and is being held on a $250,000 cash bond. His bond was upheld during a court appearance Wednesday morning.

A judge ordered Walter to stay away from the alleged victim and her family. The case returns to court Monday.

Court records indicate that Walter was charged as a juvenile in May with domestic violence, but the charge was dismissed and the documents in the case were ordered to be sealed.

Walter graduated from CovCath in the spring of 2018. He was offered a scholarship to play basketball at Xavier, but is not on the roster. In August, the school confirmed Walter was not on the roster.

Xavier's only comment Tuesday night was to confirm that Walter is not under scholarship. A family member previously told The Enquirer they expected Jacob Walter to be back with the program in January.

Walter led the commonwealth in field goal percentage his senior year at CovCath. He was named All-State by the Lexington Herald-Leader/Kentucky.com and averaged 11.3 points for the Colonels.

While Walter was never enrolled at Xavier, the men's basketball program has had its share of legal issues in recent years.

Former Xavier guard Trevon Bluiett faced charges in Indiana of a misdemeanor count of possession of marijuana, hash oil or hashish in April of 2017.

During his time as a notable, off-the-bench player, J.P. Macura in 2016 pleaded guilty in Hamilton County Municipal Court to charges of disorderly conduct and obstructing official business.

According to a police report, Macura pulled down his pants, "exposing his buttock." Court documents say several people were at the bar and saw Macura's actions.

And Myles Davis, a senior guard who abruptly left the program in January of 2017, was charged in two incidents involving 23-year-old Xavier student, who according to her father, was "scared off campus” due to the alleged crimes.
