Torrey Green will remain in prison for five rape convictions and other sexual misconduct charges after the Utah Supreme Court denied his appeal on June 1.

denying the appeal, written by Chief Justice Matthew Durrant, was filed on June 1. It said the Supreme Court did not find any errors and that evidence was submitted properly, and that a few statements that should have been excluded due to hearsay "were harmless."Green attended USU and played football from 2011 to 2016, after which he left USU on March 5, 2016 to begin training with the NFL and was drafted to the Atlanta Falcons, the opinion written by Durrant notes.

One of the women said she met Green on Tinder in November 2013, and after dinner at his apartment she agreed to a massage, but then resisted when he forced her clothes off and raped her. One woman said she also met Green at the USU student center and agreed to meet at his apartment because he had a friend with him, but the friend left and Green began to kiss her and tried to take her clothes off. She refused, but he forced her clothing off and raped her.

"Mr. Green put the women's credibility at issue by claiming they were lying, and the accusations of multiple similar acts of sexual misconduct by Mr. Green corroborated each woman's story," Durrant wrote in the opinion.
