Reports out of Washington state are saying that former Washington Huskies point guard Venoy Overton was arrested in Seattle on suspicion of promoting prostitution.
Police Lt. Pat Lowery of Kent – a suburb of Seattle – says Overton was arrested Thursday.
According to The Associated Press:
In May, undercover officers contacted an 18-year-old woman about prostitution in an area of Kent that’s known for the activity. Lowery says the woman told them her boyfriend, Overton, brought her to the area and told her to perform acts of prostitution. Police say the woman added she’d been told what to charge and had given a portion of the money to Overton.
Overton just graduated recently.
He was booked into jail in Kent and is expected to appear before a judge Friday.
