PULLMAN — Washington State University employee and former star quarterback Jason Gesser was placed on home assignment Monday following a new complaint of sexual misconduct.
Gesser will work from home pending an investigation of the allegation, the university’s President Kirk Schulz and Director of Athletics Pat Chun said in a joint statement.
“This is new information and a different set of events than previously reported,” said Kimberly Anderson, director of WSU’s Office for Equal Opportunity.
Details of the misconduct were not released.
Schulz and Chun said this is the first time an individual directly involved in an alleged incident of sexual misconduct has filed a formal complaint against Gesser.
Gesser did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
