Jameis Winston Rape Accuser Speaks in Sundance Documentary


PARK CITY, Utah, Jan. 27 (UPI) — Analysts and critics again poured over film highlighting famed Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston Friday, but this time the setting was a film festival in Utah and the experts were moviegoers.
Filmmakers Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering’s new documentary “The Hunting Ground” profiles sexual assault on the college campus and premiered Friday at the Sundance Film Festival. The film features Erica Kinsman, who claims she was raped by Winston.
The film “takes aim at colleges and sex crime cover-ups, including the alleged Dec. 7, 2012 incident in Tallahassee, Fla.,” according to the New York Daily News.
Winston, a former Heisman Trophy winner, was not charged by the state attorney after being accused of the sexual assault. Kinsman describes the events in detail, of the night she had been drinking, out at a bar, in a cab, and allegedly being raped on a bathroom floor of a stranger’s apartment.
