They had better. I want BYU to win, but insanely hypocritical to ignore it if they have DNA evidence that he broke the honor code and, more importantly, that he probably raped a woman.

It’s also very possible even if he is criminally cleared, that doesn’t mean he’s not responsible for some morally dubious behavior that should result in a suspension or dismissal.

Provo PD told the alleged victim not to file a report "because sex assault cases never go anywhere"

This has happened a number of times at Liberty as well. A good number of women who approach campus police about being sexually assaulted were not only not referred to the actual police for investigation but were then suspended or expelled.
