She said she's known Derosena for about three years and recently told him she was moving to another state. As they were watching a movie together in the victim's dorm on March 20, Derosena allegedly started sexually assaulting the victim and was told to stop at least five times, according to a police report. He left once she started crying.

When investigators visited Derosena's dorm at Northeastern, he said he didn't stop the act until she was “really, really crying a lot."
