NFL’s Isaiah Bond
No Charges In Sexual Assault Case
Published
Former Texas Longhorns star Isaiah Bond will not face charges stemming from sexual assault claims made against him … and the undrafted wide receiver now intends to sign with the Cleveland Browns.
The Collin County District Attorney released a statement on the development on Thursday … saying, “After reviewing all the evidence presented, a Collin County grand jury returned a ‘no bill’ in the sexual assault charge involving Isaiah Bond, meaning no indictment will be issued,” Greg Willis said.
“This concludes the criminal proceedings in this matter.”
21-year-old Bond — who adamantly denied anything but a consensual encounter with his accuser — was arrested back in April after turning himself in on a sexual assault warrant.
He sued the woman at the center of the allegations … and the lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice in July.
Bond — a projected second-round pick before the allegations — addressed the matter on social media … thanking the Browns for giving him the opportunity to pursue a professional career before briefly speaking on the case.
“I know there have been questions and reports about these allegations. I am grateful for the decision of the prosecutor and the courts not to pursue charges. I will learn from this experience as I grown in wisdom, character and faith.”
He continued — “On the advice of my attorney, I will not discuss the details of this case, but I want to be clear: from the very beginning, I have refuted these allegations and maintained my innocence. I stand firm by that today.”
Bond — who also played at Alabama — is now shifting his focus to football … saying he’s going to prove Cleveland right in trusting him.
