University of Washington Running Back Tybo Rogers Accused of 2 Rapes

The 18-year-old was arrested and charged with the alleged crimes on April 5, authorities shared

University of Washington running back Tybo Rogers has been arrested and charged with the rape of two women.

The 18-year-old is accused of having raped the women on two separate occasions after being invited to their homes after matching with them on the dating app Tinder during last year’s football season, according to court documents filed on Tuesday, April 9, per King 5, Associated Press, and ESPN.

Rogers was taken into custody on the morning of April 5 and charged with one count of second-degree rape and one count of third-degree rape in King County Superior Court, per the outlets.

The California sophomore’s arrest comes after a 19-year-old woman reported a rape in October 2023. A month later, a 22-year-old woman also came forward with similar allegations against the same suspect, which led to Rogers’ arrest, the Seattle Police Department shared in a press release.

“Detectives established probable cause for both sexual assaults,” the police added.

According to court documents, per King 5, Associated Press, and ESPN, Rogers is accused of having attacked the first woman at her apartment as one of her roommates slept and the other left for work.

The court documents allege that Rogers met the second woman at a Halloween party in a Greek Row fraternity. After matching on Tinder, she invited him to her apartment where he attacked her, per the documents.
