<p>It seems Ben Roethlisberger had a bad night.</p>
<p>The Super Bowl-winning VIP quarterback has been accused of  sexual assault by a college student, and<a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2010/0415101roethlisberger1.html#theLink" target="_blank"> 572 pages</a> of Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) records obtained by the Web site <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2010/0415101roethlisberger1.html#theLink" target="_blank">thesmokinggun.com</a> reveal all the gritty details of Big Ben&#8217;s booze-filled night of questionable decisions. Her statement reads like the beginning of a particularly skeezy episode of &#8220;Law &amp; Order: SVU.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;He left and came back with his penis out of his pants. I told him it wasn&#8217;t OK, that no, we didn&#8217;t need to do this and I proceeded to get up and try to leave&#8230;He followed me into the bathroom and shut the door behind him.&#8221;<br />
<span id="more-300"></span><br />
The victim&#8217;s name is being protected, but the documents indicate that she&#8217;s a 20-year-old college student who was bar-hopping in Milledgeville, a small college town south of Atlanta. A friend of the victim told investigators in a statement about partying with  Roethlisberger at the Capital City club, where he purchased a round of shots for  women in the VIP room and announced, <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2010/0415101roethlisberger17.html">&#8220;All  my bitches, take some shots.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>Another witness, Ann Marie Lubatti, stated that the victim told her about having unprotected sex with Roethlisberger. After  hearing her friend&#8217;s account, Lubatti and another woman, Nicole  Biancofiore, &#8220;walked up to the first cop we saw and told them what  happened.&#8221;</p>
<p>Read the full police document and <a href="http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2010/0415101roethlisberger1.html" target="_blank">The Smoking Gun&#8217;s article</a> for more details, but the bigger question that this incident brings up is Big Ben&#8217;s potential punishment&#8211;this is the second time in a year that the quarterback has been accused of sexual assault. Roethlisberger denies the allegations, and police are waiting on test results before deciding whether or not to charge him.</p>
<p>Most fans and media are saying that Ben <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&amp;id=5098307&amp;sportCat=nfl" target="_blank">needs to be suspended for at least 4 games</a> and that if he makes another mistake, a &#8220;strike three,&#8221; that the Steelers should trade him before his contract expires. <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5098560" target="_blank">The team itself could also face fines around $200,000,</a> as the NFL now holds teams responsible for their players&#8217; off-the-field transgressions.</p>
