Lawyer: Defense 'too little too late'
As the state attorney's office weighs whether it believes it has sufficient evidence to bring criminal charges against Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, the family of the woman who has accused him of sexually assaulting her in December 2012 issued a second statement Friday night, saying the woman was raped by the Heisman Trophy candidate.
Responding to earlier claims by Winston's attorney that he had consensual sex with the woman, Patricia Carroll, the family's attorney, said in the statement: "To be clear, the victim did not consent. This was a rape."

In the statement, Carroll also questioned why Tallahassee police informed Winston that he was a suspect in the alleged rape, and why police didn't interview witnesses who could speak to Winston's innocence in February after they were initially informed of the alleged attack. Jansen has repeatedly said affidavits from two witnesses who were at the off-campus apartment on the night of the alleged attack would support Winston's claim of having consensual sex with the woman.
