Another college football player has entered a plea of not guilty in a alleged attempted rape case. Josh A. Rojas, of Ellensburg, WA, will be tried on charges of 2nd degree attempted rape and unlawful imprisonment December 11th. A second trial for another 2nd degree rape charge is scheduled for December 4th. Rojas pleaded not guilty to that charge October 1st.
Superior Court Judge Michael Cooper issued a standard protection order prohibiting contact between Rojas and his alleged victims. The first charge against him was investigated by police September 21st. After his arrest, and mention in the local paper, a second woman came forward to report an incident which took place November 30th.
Rojas, a CWU football team member, is still enrolled as a student for now, but school officials are deciding whether to either suspend or expel him from campus. He has already been suspended from the football team until resolution of charges. CWU also requires Rojas to check in with campus police or chief conduct officer Jack Baker each time he is present on campus.
