Michigan State Denies Mel Tucker's Appeal in Sexual Misconduct Case
Former Michigan State football coach Mel Tucker's appeal of findings in a sexual misconduct case has been denied, with an attorney stating that Tucker failed to prove error or bias. The case stemmed from allegations by activist and rape survivor Brenda Tracy, who accused Tucker of sexually harassing her during a phone call. Tracy's allegations were made public in September, leading to Tucker's suspension and subsequent firing by Michigan State. Despite the denial of his appeal, Tucker's attorney and agent have not commented on the decision.
