A 2008 OU graduate was charged with second-degree rape Tuesday in Cleveland County District Court.
Blake Scott Dilliner, 22, of Richardson, Texas, was charged with second-degree rape of a 20-year-old woman on May 17 at a residence on the 1000 block of College Avenue, according to an affidavit.
The woman told police she passed out on a couch at the residence after drinking alcoholic beverages. She said she woke up to a stabbing pain, and Dilliner was on top of her. She said she pushed him off, yelled at him and asked another person at the house to drive her home, according to the affidavit.
Dilliner gave an officer several different accounts of what happened before saying that he took the victim’s clothes off and had sex with her. According to the affidavit, Dilliner told police he “‘didn’t consciously’ realize that [the woman] ‘was not an active participant’ and that the sex he was having was nonconsensual.”
When contacted Monday by The Daily, Dilliner said he was not aware he faced charges. He told The Daily what he remembered of the incident, but after contacting an attorney, asked that the information not be printed. In the interest of ensuring that, if his case goes to court, Dilliner receives a fair trial, The Daily has decided not to print the information at this time.
Cleveland County Sheriff’s Department Capt. Doug Blaine said Monday a warrant had not yet been issued for Dilliner’s arrest.
