The young woman who accused Jameis Winston of rape more than two years ago revealed her identity in a new documentary called “The Hunting Ground,” which dives into the issue of sexual assault on college campuses.
According to Marissa Payne of The Washington Post, Erica Kinsman said in the documentary that she recalls taking a shot with Winston at Potbelly’s nightclub in Tallahassee after the Florida State quarterback pretended to be her boyfriend to get another guy to stop bothering her.
Kinsman is convinced she was drugged and her drink was spiked.
“I’m totally certain something was in that drink,” Kinsman said, who revealed she did not realize Winston was the star freshman quarterback on FSU’s football team until months after the alleged rape occurred.
Kinsman said the next thing she remembers was ending up in a cab with Winston and two other men. She said that leaving in a cab with the men was “uncharacteristic” behavior for her.
She says Winston later raped her at his apartment.
“He was on top of me and I couldn’t really breathe,” Kinsman says, noting Winston’s roommate disrupted Winston’s first attempt when he entered his bedroom because the door didn’t lock. She said the roommate, who she does not identify, pleaded with Winston to stop and noted Klinsman was saying “no.” That’s when Kinsman said Winston picked her up and took her to the bathroom, where the door did lock.
“He pushed his hand over my face and pushed my face to the floor,” she said, recalling the floor was tile. She said he dressed her and told her it was time to leave after he was done.
The toxicology report revealed Ms. Kinsman wasn’t intoxicated and there were no drugs in her system.
