St. Francis Xavier University grapples with sex-assault charges against varsity football players


Two varsity football players have been charged with sexual assault. RCMP said Jonah Williams, 19, has been charged with three counts of sexual assault, while Tyler Ball, 18, was charged with one count of sexual assault. But the charges have rekindled a wider conversation about sexual assault allegations and universities. It’s not until recently that society has inherently believed the victims of sexualized violence, Blackburn said. “We know that sexualized violence tends to go unreported or under reported ... especially in rural Nova Scotia.”
