University of Wisconsin football player Ernest Mason was arrested and charged Tuesday with Disorderly Conduct and Intimidating a Victim, both misdemeanor charges.
Intimidating a victim is defined in Wisconsin state law as “knowingly and maliciously” preventing, or attempting to prevent, someone who has been the victim of a crime or who is acting on behalf of the victim from reporting the crime to law enforcement.
Mason, 18, is a freshman at UW from Dunbar, Texas. This season for the Badgers, he caught one pass for 19 yards and averaged 15.3 yards per kickoff return.
