So no comments on Dixon's strange?
Boy there's something I'm glad I don't have to figure out WTF to do with. It sure reads like a guy that really wanted to get it wet and a girl that eventually did relent...only to regret it.

Doesn't make him a rapist...probably does make him a pushy asshole. In either event, it doesn't do him any favors.
Quote:
Missouri senior guard Mike Dixon was accused of forcible rape on Aug. 20, according to a Columbia Police Department offense report, but it was determined there was insufficient evidence to file criminal charges.
Dixon is currently serving an indefinite suspension from the MU basketball team for reasons that have only been described as a violation of team rules.
According to the narrative of the police’s offense report, an MU sophomore met with Officer Skyler Williamson and told him she had been raped at about 12:15 a.m. on Aug. 20.
She said she invited Dixon to her apartment get to know him better. She said he suggested they turn out the lights because his “eyes hurt” and that after initially resisting, she agreed to turn off the lights and they went to her bed. She said that while she tried to talk to Dixon, he leaned in to kiss her and she kissed him back. She said Dixon got on top of her and “she told Dixon she did not want to do this but that she just wanted to kiss him.”
According to the report, she said Dixon told her to “chill out” and began tugging at her pajama pants. She said she told Dixon multiple times to stop, to which he responded, “just chill out.” She said she tried unsuccessfully to push Dixon off of her but couldn’t. She said she told Dixon, “No you don’t even have protection, this is disgusting,” and that after saying that, Dixon removed a condom from his pocket and put it on.
She said that soon afterward Dixon penetrated her with his penis and she was in pain and unable to move. She said Dixon asked her to turn around so he could penetrate her from behind, which she did. When asked by the investigating officer if she ever tried to stop Dixon, she said, “she had just let it happen and she did not know why.” She said she was not afraid of being struck by Dixon.
According to the report, the woman said Dixon stopped after about 20 minutes and she reached for her pajama pants. She said that when Dixon asked why she was trying to put on her pants, she replied, “because this was never supposed to happen in the first place.” She said she went to the bathroom and when she returned Dixon asked her to perform oral sex on him. She said she told him no, and then Dixon asked her to masturbate him, which she did. She stated “she didn’t know why did.” She said Dixon left soon thereafter.
According to the report, the investigating officer asked if she had gone to the hospital to have a sexual assault kit done, and she said she had not but would do so. The officer collected evidence, including the pajama pants, a shirt she was wearing, bed sheets and a red rag he used to clean himself up after he ejaculated.
She went University Hospital later that night to have a sexual assault kit done, and police collected it as evidence on Aug. 21.
A follow-up report detailed the women’s second interview with the Columbia Police Department, this time with Sgt. Steven McCormack on Aug. 21. The explanation of the alleged rape was similar, although it stated that Dixon only arrived at her apartment at approximately 12:40 a.m. on Aug. 20.
The explanation also included more details. She said she and Dixon met at a fraternity party in March and had tried to date the previous semester. She said that Dixon would try to visit her late at night to have sex but that she would say no.
She said that after the alleged rape she yelled at him, “telling him that basketball athletes are all alike, and they like to have sex with all the girls.” She said after the alleged rape she walked Dixon to the door and opened it for him. She said she and Dixon had not spoke since it happened but that she sent him a text message approximately two minutes after he left her apartment.
According to the report: “The text she sent said they should hang out together, and was sorry for yelling at him. She also told Mr. Dixon she didn’t want him just using her for sex. Mr. Dixon sent her a text back, saying Okay.” The woman “told Mr. Dixon to send her a text when he was free. Mr. Dixon sent her a text back, saying Okay.”
When asked why she didn’t initially report the offense, she said she “didn’t want to go through the Rape Kit and Police Reports.” She “also had concerns about seeing Mr. Dixon on campus, and said he is a really good athlete in basketball. She also said people worship Mr. Dixon, they wouldn’t take her seriously, and the school wouldn’t take it seriously.” She said she decided to report the alleged rape on the advice of her sisters.
The woman said she threw away the condom Dixon used, but the police recovered it from a trash bin outside her apartment.
The woman, in response to a message from McCormack, left McCormack a voicemail message on Aug. 22 that she wanted to prosecute. A follow-up report states that the woman and McCormack tried to cold call Dixon on Aug. 24 but did not reach him. There is no evidence in the offense report or follow-up reports that police ever interviewed Dixon.
A later follow-up report stated that the woman tried to contact Dixon via text message on Aug. 27 but he did not respond. The next day, she told police she sent him another text message and told him he was ignoring her and called him an “asshole.”
In more follow-up interviews with McCormack, the woman shared text-message exchanges with Dixon she had after the alleged rape. Included was the following exchange from Sept. 4:
Woman: “Just delete my number. Dont want anything to do with you.”
Dixon: “I’m sorry its not you I told you that I don’t have any problems with u I have just had to rethink my priorities and do what’s best for me.”
Woman: “Michael, what kind of person has sex with someone then doesn’t want to contact them afterwards. I barely text you. I didn’t even want to have sex with you in the beginning; i pretty much made that clear with you since last semester, but no Michael always gets What he wanta.”
Woman: “I told you before I cut those damn lights off we werent going to have sex. I had no intentions of doing that with you Because i don’t have sex with guys i barely know. You only wanted to come over that night for one sex anyways. I just wasn’t going to let you. But no you weren’t taking no for an answer. So that is Why Im mad at you. Because you used me.”
Woman: “And the fact that you dont have the decency to respond to How i feel. Im assuming you don’t care which is fine. I just know I was right about you all along.”
Dixon didn’t respond to the last three messages.
In the final follow-up police report on Nov. 16, McCormack listed under follow-up remarks: “insufficient evidence to file criminal charges.”
Tracy Gonzalez of the Boone County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office told the Kansas City Star that “it was determined that the evidence was not sufficient to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt to a jury.”
Sources have told the Tribune that the university's Student Conduct Committee met weeks ago on a matter involving Dixon. Per university policy, if the committee votes to suspend or expel a student, the student can appeal to the chancellor.
