Gang rape AND solo sodomy?

Things are going downhill for former BYU football player B.J. Mathis. (Freshman, suspended before he ever played a down). Rape trial is pending 24 August in Provo. He's now under investigation for breaking and entering and forcible sodomy in his hometown of Garland, Texas on 24 March. According to the news story, a dogtag with his name and social security number (and semen -- now being tested for DNA) were found at the scene. I thought perhaps the alleged rape was consensual (after all, she met the group of players at the mall, asked for their address, went to their apartment, watched a porno movie with them and drank alcohol). But now...

His BYU roster number: 24. Trial 24 August. Forcible sodomy 24 March. Sentence: 24 years?

UPDATE: Mathis was acquitted in Provo of rape and cleared in the forcible sodomy case. As Yogi Berra used to say, it's not over until it's over.
