FLINT, Mich. -- A judge on Monday dismissed all charges against former Michigan State basketball star Mateen Cleaves, who was accused of sexually assaulting a woman after a charity golf event and a visit to a bar in 2015.Judge Cathy Dowd in Flint, Michigan, heard days of testimony, including details from the woman, who said she twice tried to get away from Cleaves but was pulled back into a motel room and sexually assaulted.A witness confirmed that she saw the woman try to escape a room at the Knights Inn near Flint. But a police officer summoned to the motel said the woman never indicated that she was assaulted.Cleaves, 39, was charged with unlawful imprisonment, assault with intent to commit sexual penetration, second-degree criminal sexual conduct and third-degree criminal sexual conduct. He pleaded not guilty.The Associated Press generally doesnt name people who say they were sexually assaulted. The woman testified that she never said no to Cleaves but I told him I wanted to go home. They met at a golf event that day, and she later sent him a text message to join her and others at a bar.In dismissing the charges, the judge said there were credibility problems with the womans testimony.Im supposed to believe hes pulling her back in the room to commit criminal sexual conduct, Dowd said. There are a number of factors that lead me to believe something else could be going on. She is the one that invited Mr. Cleaves to come to the bar. She is the one that voluntarily left with Mr. Cleaves to go someplace else.The legal standard to send someone to trial in Michigan is probable cause. Its a much lower threshold than beyond a reasonable doubt, which determines guilt or innocence at trial. Prosecutors said theyll appeal Dowds decision.Defense attorney Frank Manley said it was a case of regret, not rape.But prosecutor Lisa Lindsey said if the woman didnt want to be at the motel with Cleaves, then why did she run out of the room desperately trying to get away from the defendant?Cleaves led Michigan State to the NCAA basketball championship in 2000 and remains close to the program. Mateen is the middle name of coach Tom Izzos son.Cleaves appeared in 167 games for four NBA teams. Andrew Ference Jersey .

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- John Elway summoned Von Miller to his office on the eve of training camp with three blank boxes left on his offseason to-do list:1. Patch up the pairs relationship frayed by their financial fracas .I wanted to make sure we were on the same page, Denvers general manager said.2. Warn him about higher hopes that accompany mega-deals like his , a $114.5 million contract that includes $70 million guaranteed, a record for a nonquarterback.All of a sudden standards and expectations are going to go way up, Elway said.3. Admonish Miller to treat quarterbacks in the regular season just like he did in the playoffs .The first five years hes done a tremendous job, Elway said, but I really believe that hes just touched the surface and has a chance to get even better.Check, check, check.Miller has an NFL-best four sacks through two weeks, including a sack-strip of Andrew Luck that sealed Denvers 34-20 win over the Colts that was reminiscent of his mammoth hits in the Super Bowl when he snatched both the football and the Lombardi Trophy from Cam Newtons grasp.He also dumped Newton in this years opener, giving right tackle Mike Remmers a painful reminder of that night when Millers two forced fumbles led to 15 points in Denvers 24-10 Super Bowl win.Right now he has to be at the top, said coach Marvin Lewis, whose Bengals (1-1) host the Broncos (2-0) on Sunday. I think hes playing exceptional again. ... Theres not many like him around.Miller was named the AFCs Defensive Player of the Week for his monster game against Indianapolis, when he collected seven tackles and three quarterback hits to go with his trio of sacks and a forced fumble.Miller said its a matter of focusing on his craft after an offseason in which he made 48 television appearances, including Dancing with the Stars, and logged enough air miles to circle the globe almost three times during his contract stalemate.Miller said Thursday that all the hours he spent learning dance moves from his partner, Whitney Carson, helped him get off to his great start this football season.I definitely think some of the practice I had with Whitney is paying off. Ive never put six hours into one thingg every single day, Miller said.dddddddddddd Not even football. We practice for two hours. Six hours every single day, it made me consistent. It made me have to come to work every single day and be consistent and work on something that I wasnt really good at.So, hes applied that same work ethic to something hes great at -- football.Ive already had agility and flexibility, but I just think the consistent part, Miller said. Im not tackling guys on the dance floor, but the work that you put in to be a great dancer has a direct correlation to the work you have to put in to be a great football player.Although hes still on TV aplenty as the NFLs latest premier pitchman , the only dancing moves hes flashing are the celebration shimmies and shuffles after his sacks.I just made the windows smaller. I just made my views smaller, Miller said. I dont really spend too much time focusing on anything other than my teammates and my scheme. I spend a lot of time with my teammates. I spend a lot of time with Aqib Talib, T.J. Ward. Its like college here for me. I watch film all day, getting extra workouts in, and its all football now. Its not really anything outside of that.Quarterbacks are paying the price.You have to know where hes at because he is a guy who can really change the course of the game with how good he is, Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton said.In his last four games, counting the playoffs, Miller has 21 tackles, including four behind the line of scrimmage, nine sacks, 10 quarterback hits (which dont include his sacks), three forced fumbles, an interception and two pass breakups.And this has come against Tom Brady, Newton twice and Luck.Its very amazing just to see the moves he makes at the line, teammate Bradley Roby said. Its very exciting. I know its intimidating for the other offense to watch because its just like, `How do you stop that?---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Wholesale NFL Gear Black China NFL Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Stitched NFL Jerseys China Jerseys Wholesale Cheap Jerseys Online Stitched NFL Jerseys Wholesale NFL White Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Outlet White NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Camo Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping ' ' '
