After ten months the case was forwarded to the district attorney.“Once inside, Araiza threw [the girl] onto the bed face first,” the lawsuit read. “[The girl] went in and in and out of consciousness while” suffering through “the horrific gang rape.” It lasted an hour and a half, the lawsuit read, before she “stumbled out of the room bloody and crying” in part because “multiple piercings had ripped through the skin during the attack.”It was confirmed on December 7 that no criminal charges would follow. Deputy District Attorney Trisha Amidor said on the subject:&quot;The district attorney’s office concluded Araiza couldn’t have led the girl into the alleged gang rape because he had “left” the home at about 12:30 a.m., an hour prior to when evidence suggested the alleged gang rape would have occurred.“He wasn’t even at the party anymore. In looking at the videos on the sex tape, I absolutely cannot prove any forceable sexual assault based upon what happened.”The timeline prosecutors determined the incident occurred at 12.55 a.m., an hour and a half after Matt Araiza had left the party.What next for Matt Araiza?Ariaza did get one appearance in the preseason for the Bills before the case came to light.
