Oklahoma State University police accuse UT freshman Ishmael Ibraheem, who is from Dallas, of sharing sexually explicit images of a woman with whom he was in a sexual relationship. Those images were shared with OSU students, the report says. 

Ibraheem, the report states, is charged with a misdemeanor of nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images. He was charged on Friday and according to court documents the alleged victim told police she didn’t know she was being filmed at the time. She said Ibraheem later told her that he had filmed the act and she asked him to keep it private.

The alleged victim told police she received a screenshot of a TikTok video that showed her and Ibraheem having sex. The sex was consensual, she said.

Ibraheem hasn’t been arrested but a warrant with a bond of $2,500 has been issued.

According to the Austin American-Statesman, Ibraheem has been suspended from all team activities.

“We were made aware of the allegations involving Ishmael Ibraheem in early September and immediately cooperated with the University and legal processes, which remain ongoing,” the University of Texas said in a statement to the Austin American-Statesman. “In light of the new information and his recent charges, he has been suspended from all team activities at this time as we continue to monitor the legal process.”

Ibraheem appeared in games with Texas this season until a knee injury sidelined him.

Revenge porn is defined by Oklahoma as “the posting of revealing or sexually explicit images or videos of a person on the internet without their consent, usually by a former sexual partner, in order to cause distress or embarrassment.”

In Oklahoma a conviction can come with a fine of $1,000 or one year in prison. The law went into effect in 2016.
