Tutor From Stonehill College Cleared Of Rape Charges

BROCKTON (CBS) - A Stonehill College tutor will be allowed to return to school if he wants to now that rape charges against him will be dropped.

A grand jury failed to indict Kevin Treseler, who was accused of raping an eight-year old girl he was tutoring in a Brockton public school.

Treseler's lawyer said he's eager to resume his education, but he's not sure he wants to return to Stonehill.

The school released a brief statement:

"We welcome this news and the relief it must bring to Kevin and his family. We look forward to helping Kevin reintegrate into college life and to supporting him as he makes that transition, if that is his wish," said Martin McGovern, director of Communications and Media Relations.
