The alleged sexual assaults took place in the girl’s dorm and police were told about four incidents that happened each month from September to December, the criminal complaint states.
Even though the girl told Davis she did not want to have sex, she told police “he still did it anyways,” police said in the complaint.
Police were shown the text messages between the two, and Davis allegedly admitted to performing sexual acts without her consent, the complaint states. It was noted in the charges that police matched the phone number to Davis by looking him up in an online database the university uses.

“Blake Davis is enrolled in a fully online program at Shippensburg University and does not reside on campus,” the spokesperson said. “The university has no further information to share regarding this ongoing investigation.”
