I'm sure part of this story had already surfaced, but:
- Today, Ron Bell, a former "friend" of Josh Pastner, was convicted of orchestrating false sexual assault allegation against Josh Pastner.
- According to the story, Bell's GF called police and accused Pastner of sexually assaulting her in a Houston motel room.
- A GT security guard also admitted that he was part of the scheme when he claimed to have witnessed Pastner inappropriately touching the woman
- Bell's motivation for the scheme to falsely accuse Pastner was based on Pastner not offering sufficient reciprocity in the Bell/Pastner friendship
- Bell also claimed to have offered money and other benefits to GT players Josh Okogie and Tadric Jackson (the NCAA suspended each player based on those allegations; the NCAA has now vacated those penalities)
