Former Indiana RB Kiante Enis Sentenced for Sex with 13-Year-Old Girl

Timothy RappJun 28, 2017

Former Indiana running back Kiante Enis pleaded guilty to child solicitation and had two counts of child molestation dropped Wednesday, according to Douglas Walker of the Star Press, after engaging in sexual activities with a 13-year-old girl.

A Randolph County Circuit Court clerk confirmed to CNN that Enis was sentenced to four years, which was suspended for all but 480 days. Of that time, 240 days can be on work release if he's eligible and another 240 on house arrest.

"Itโ€™s really embarrassing," Enis toldย Randolph Circuit Court Judge Jay Toney, per Walker. "I feel like I let my family down and my supporters down."

Enis told authorities he didn't know the girl's age the first time they had sex in March 2016, according toย Walker, but then had sex with her two more times after learning of her age. The girl confirmed that she had not been forced to have sex, however.

Enis was dismissed from the Indiana football program after his arrest and also lost his scholarship at the university. Per Walker's report, he will be permitted to join a work-release program while serving his sentence.
