Police Report: Shawn Oakman Beat Girlfriend in 2013 Fight

Baylor once again seems to have failed to investigate an assault involving a football player.

According to a Waco Police Department incident report, former Baylor defensive end Shawn Oakman beat up and manhandled a former girlfriend during a fight in her new apartment over another girl he may have been involved with. The woman, whose name has been redacted from the report, says they had an existing relationship, and that she was being harassed by another woman on Instagram.

According to the narrative in the report, on January 10, 2013, the victim invited Oakman over to discuss their relationship and also asked him to have one of his other girls stop making disparaging comments on her Instagram page. Oakman told the victim that she wasn't his girlfriend anymore and started "saying rude things to her." The victim began crying at which point Oakman tried to hug her and she told him to stop touching her and get out. Oakman allegedly got angry at this and then lifted her up by her armpits and at one point "shoved her into the brick walls and cabinets and all the stuff she was unpacking."

She continued to tell him to stop, and complained that he was hurting her. As "she was curled up on the ground shaking, he picked her up and was calling her a slut and a whore, and that she would never be anything to him, and he was yelling in her face." Oakman continued to throw her around the room and "shoved her face into the clutter on her bed."

The victim, who had visible injuries, did not want to file charges.

According to Alex Dunlap, who obtained the report, sources also claim that Baylor was aware of the incident and, obviously, did nothing. This is not a surprise, of course. On the same day Oakman was arrested on an apparent unrelated charge of sexual assault, Outside the Lines released a report detailing the program's failure, for two years, to investigate rape claims made against two other football players.
