The players filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the former Butler athletic trainer committed the assaults and other sexual misconduct over several years.
INDIANAPOLIS — Three Butler University women’s soccer players filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday alleging the team’s former athletic trainer sexually assaulted and groomed multiple players on the team.
Michael Howell allegedly committed the assaults and other sexual misconduct over several years, the lawsuit said.The alleged acts occurred in Butler’s training room, offices, buses and in Howell’s private hotel rooms during away games, the complaint said. They occurred while Howell was under the supervision of Ralph Reiff, Butler’s senior associate athletic director for student-athlete health, performance and well-being.
Instead of athletic massages that should have lasted only 10 minutes and directed at a specific area, Howell would give full-body massages in a private room that could last hours, the complaint said. Further, Howell told the women he had “files against all the players and would use them if they ever said anything bad about him,” the lawsuits allege.Attorneys says they know of at least six women who have come forward with allegations of abuse perpetuated by a sports trainer.
