John David Mahaffey
The Dallas Morning News reports that the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office has dismissed charges against a former SMU student who was accused of sexually assaulting another male student.
John David Mahaffey was arrested in September after the alleged victim told police Mahaffey had forced him to perform oral sex at the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity house and at a nearby campus parking garage
The DA’s office dismissed the case last week in a one-page motion saying, ““Upon review of all facts associated with the case by Cresta Garland, Assistant District Attorney, it has been determined that there is no probable cause to support an element of the offense.”
UPDATE: The Morning News (subscription only) has more on the story behind the dismissal, including the alleged victim’s reaction.
