Regents to meet about sexual assault allegations
07/22/2008

     IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - Iowa Board of Regents officials say they
plan to meet today to talk about letters sent by the mother of a
woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by two University of
Iowa football players.
     The mother accuses the university of mishandling the response to
her daughter's allegations. The family eventually went to police.
     Two former Iowa football players, Abe Satterfield and Cedric
Everson, are accused of sexually assaulting the woman last October
at a campus dorm.
     Everson has been charged with second-degree sexual assault and
Satterfield has been charged with second- and third-degree sexual
assault. Both men have pleaded not guilty.
     Last month, the Board of Regents said its investigation showed
that the university handled the alleged assault appropriately.
     However, Board President David Miles says the regents didn't
know about the mother's letters until late last week. He says the
documents could change the regents' views.
