Story here. Excerpt:
'Ray McDonald was accused of rape in December, and the 49ers cut him immediately after news broke that police were investigating. But McDonald has not been charged, and now he plans to sue his accuser, saying she made a false claim and that it has put his football career in jeopardy.
McDonald’s lawyer told the San Jose Mercury News that video from McDonald’s home-surveillance system show the woman having “clearly consensual” sex with McDonald, and that the rape allegation was false. Yet the allegation led the 49ers to release McDonald, and no other team has shown interest in signing him. McDonald and his lawyer released a statement saying they hope the lawsuit can vindicate him and get his NFL career back on track.'

ADAMS COUNTY, Colorado - The district attorney has dismissed all charges against an Adams County deputy who was accused of sexually assaulting his estranged wife last summer.
Deputy Jason Belmont, who is assigned to the Patrol Division, was arrested by the Aurora Police Department on June 4, 2014. He was charged with sexual assault and false imprisonment.
The Adams County District Attorney's Office dismissed all charges during a Thursday court hearing, according to court records.
Belmont's attorney, Ryan Coward, said in a statement: "Today, during a motions hearing, the District Attorney dismissed all charges against Belmont citing a lack of credible evidence."
