CHAPEL HILL (WTVD) — A University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student claims she was raped by a UNC football player earlier this year. Tuesday afternoon, she held a press conference to not only talk about the delays in her case but also to promote change for how sexual assault and rape victims are treated. She said she came forward not for herself, but for the other students who are not protected.

UNC Sophomore Delaney Robinson spoke publicly in Raleigh, along with her father and her attorney, about the alleged incident that on Valentine’s Day in the Ram Village apartments on UNC’s campus.

According to her attorney’s office: “Robinson requested self-sworn warrants for misdemeanor assault on a female and misdemeanor sexual battery as a result of the Orange County District Attorney’s refusal to prosecute the case despite sufficient physical evidence.”
