The Michigan Attorney General's Office has launched an investigation into allegations that multiple now-former basketball players sexually assaulted a female student in 2015, her lawyer confirmed Thursday to the Free Press.

Bailey Kowalski also sued Michigan State University, alleging in 2018 that three players raped her in 2015 and that she was discouraged by counseling center staff from reporting what happened. MSU investigators have cleared the players, who have never been named.

Kowalski's lawyer, Karen Truzowski, confirmed that the attorney general's office is now involved. A spokeswoman for that office said she was unable to confirm the development.

A police report was filed last summer in Lansing Township. Lansing Township Chief John Joseph said Thursday the police department and Ingham County prosecutors met this week and decided they didn't have enough resources to investigate and turned it over to the state attorney general's office.

In August, a federal judge rejected MSU's request to dismiss Kowalski' s lawsuit, saying it was "plausible" Michigan State University buried sexual assault claims brought against athletes and allowed its athletic department to deal with those issues outside the normal university process.

MSU officials and local DA buried this case.  But the victim is not giving up.  The AG is involved given evidence is “plausible”.  Local DA doesn’t see it that way therefore doesn’t want to spend any of his resources on the investigation.  

If the victim was lying, why would she keep pushing this case all the way to the AG ?  Something sexual happened but does she have proof that it was rape ?  I hope she can get her day in court to try the bastards.
