Report: Former Packer Darren Sharper Charged with Rape in Las Vegas

Former Green Bay Packers safety Darren Sharper was charged with rape of two victims in Las Vegas on Friday, according to a report by the Associated Press.

The latest charges were not unexpected. A warrant has been out for Sharper's arrest in Las Vegas, but he's been jailed since Feb. 27 in Los Angeles.

Reporters Christopher Weber and Ken Ritter combined to write:

Sharper's Las Vegas attorney, David Chesnoff, appeared Friday before a Las Vegas judge on two sexual assault charges accusing him of having sex with two tourists in January 2014 while the women were incapable of resisting.

The allegations are that Sharper went club-hopping with the women and took them to his room at a Strip hotel, where he drugged and sexually assaulted them while they were unconscious, said Officer Larry Hadfield, a Las Vegas police spokesman.

Meanwhlle, Sharper is reportedly planning to resolve rape chargers in four states through his attorney in Los Angeles by entering a plea. A hearing is set for Mar. 23 at 10:30 a.m. local time.

This story is so incredible. It's almost surreal. The allegations sound like a made for TV movie. The Hunt for the Night Club Stalker or something like that.

He had a clean slate when he played in GB. I would tell all FA's, sign in GB and you won't turn into a rapist.

It appears Sharper will be pleading guilty and confirming his status as infamous Serial Rapist. I hope he goes to prison for a good long time.

I am one that waits for the process to work itself out because of extortion but now that it has, wow. To lead the nfl in interceptions, return 3 for tds, and hoist the lombardi trophy i cant believe what he did to get laid. He was a good player but i never liked his mouth. I hope the big guys in prison put that mouth to good use.
