The DA will announce a decision on Ben Roethlisberger’s sexual assault case on Monday by 2:00PM ET, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting.

Ocmulgee Judicial Circuit District Attorney Fredric D. Bright this morning announced that he had completed his review of the investigation into a sexual assault accusation against Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, and will announce his decision on whether to file charges Monday afternoon.

“The investigation, interviews and report in the Roethlisberger matter have been completed and reviewed,” Mr. Bright said in a statement.

“We will be announcing the decision in this case in a news conference to be held on Monday, April 12, 2010, at 2 p.m. in the Baldwin County Courthouse.”

I’m not a lawyer, but I would be surprised if Roethlisberger gets into serious trouble. Unless there are witnesses that saw her being forced into the bathroom, then all anyone has is a bunch of he said, she said claims. And if she was drinking that night, it’ll be even harder for her to prove that Roethlisberger did anything wrong.

If he did sexually assault her, I hope he’s convicted. But I think it’s going to be hard for her to prove that seeing as how the two of them were alone in a bathroom together.

That said, if Big Ben is indicted, then he could face stiff punishment from the NFL. Michael Vick was indicted for dog fighting and the league suspended him indefinitely. I’m not saying the same thing will happen with Roethlisberger, but he’s about to have an interesting next couple of months.
