Utah DL 'suspended indefinitely' after arrest on charges of distributing intimate images
Utah's Jamal Wallace has been suspended indefinitely after facing charges of distributing an intimate image. He faces allegations of sexual assault.
Utah defensive tackle Jamal Wallace has been indefinitely suspended from the Utah football program following his arrest on charges of distributing intimate images. According to The Salt Lake Tribune, Wallace was arrested on October 11 after a woman reported allegations of rape and the sharing of videos of the assault on her Snapchat account.
He was released on pre-trial bond for $5,000 on October 12. Wallace has denied the allegations during a police interview, stating he accessed her Snapchat account to see with whom she had been communicating. He reportedly met with the woman on October 9 to discuss their relationship, but she claimed he forced her to engage in various sex acts and even grabbed her phone to change the music.
Utah has taken the matter seriously and has placed Wallace on indefinite suspension pending the outcome of the legal proceedings. If you or someone you know has experienced sexual violence, the National Sexual Assault Hotline is available 24/7 for confidential support.
