A Kansas judge has ruled that former University of Illinois basketball star Terrence Shannon Jr. must stand trial on a rape charge.
University of Illinois basketball player Terrence Shannon Jr. appears in court on May 10, 2024, in Lawrence, Kansas. A judge ordered him to stand trial on a rape charge. Shannon, 23, is accused of committing sexual assault on Sept. 9, in Lawrence. A Kansas judge has ruled that former University of Illinois basketball star Terrence Shannon Jr. must stand trial on a rape charge after a woman testified Friday that she was “terrified” as she allegedly was being assaulted.
“Our legal team is neither shocked nor disappointed by the outcome of this event,” Shannon’s attorney Mark Sutter, of Sutter Law Group in Oakbrook Terrace, said in a statement. “A preliminary hearing is a procedural process that merely speaks to the threshold of evidence and whether a question of fact may exist for a jury. It has nothing to do with guilt or innocence. Those issues will be decided at trial, and we continue to look forward to our day in court.
Lawrence police said in an affidavit that a woman, who was born in 2005, told a detective that Shannon put his hand under her skirt, grabbed her buttocks and penetrated her with his finger at a crowded bar close to campus. In December, Shannon was charged with one count of rape or an alternative count of misdemeanor sexual battery. He turned himself in to authorities in Lawrence and was released on a $50,000 bond.
