NORMAN — Oklahoma's leading rusher Rodney Anderson has passed a three-hour polygraph test over his denial of a rape claim.
A former FBI polygraph examiner tested Anderson Tuesday afternoon at the request of his attorney.
"Anderson denied the allegations," the polygraph examiner reported Thursday. "He was not practicing deception in his replies to relevant questions asked of him on this test."
A former OU student on Monday reported to Norman police that Anderson raped her at her apartment early Nov. 16 after they met at a bar. She said she had been drinking and only this past weekend remembered being assaulted.
A judge granted her an emergency protective order Monday at her request after she wrote in a petition "he knows where I live and I'm scared for my safety."
Anderson's attorney, Derek Chance, on Thursday made public the polygraph examiner's report.
"This week we have worked to demonstrate Mr. Anderson's innocence. That work included a polygraph examination of Mr. Anderson," the attorney said. "The examination was conducted Tuesday afternoon by retired FBI polygraph examiner Bill Brown. As expected, the results showed Mr. Anderson is honest and truthful in his denial of the allegations. As our work continues toward a final resolution, Mr. Anderson is incredibly thankful for the generous and overwhelming outpouring of support he has received from friends and family.”
The attorney on Tuesday said the woman only went to police after Anderson had rejected several social invitations from her.
The expert has conducted more than 3,500 polygraph examinations.
