A white University of Kentucky student accused of physically assaulting a Black student worker with racial slurs is withdrawing, her lawyer said Tuesday.
Rosing pleaded not guilty to the charges during an arraignment Monday afternoon and bonded out of jail later in the day.University officials said the Office for Student Conduct began a review immediately after becoming aware of the incident, and the process for disciplinary proceedings was underway. It wasn't immediately clear how the withdrawal would affect the proceedings.
Troy Rawlins Jr., who attended the march, said he is angry and disappointed about what happened but glad the university is investigating. He told the Lexington Herald-Leader he hopes for a quick resolution.
