Investigators looking into official misconduct at Penn State University are examining the school’s handling of allegations against the actor and film-maker Nate Parker, the New York Times has reported.
Parker was a member of the wrestling team at Penn State when, in 1999, he was accused of rape.
Parker has “no direct connection to the criminal case against the university officials and he faces no legal problems”, the Times wrote.
Three former Penn State officials are being prosecuted on charges that they failed to report allegations of child molestation by former football coach Jerry Sandusky.
