A former UNC-CH basketball player has been charged with second degree rape.
Melvin Scott, 32, who played from 2001-05, was arrested on Friday and held on a $500,000 bond. A bond motion reduced the bond to $200,000 and he was released from jail.
Being charged with a crime does not mean that the person is not innocent. If you need aggressive defense, bond reduction, or suppression motions filed, contact the felony trial attorneys at Garrett, Walker and Aycoth.
