"Accusations are mounting against former Northern Arizona University art professor and artist Jeriah Hildwine, 36, who was found dead in September from a self-inflicted gunshot wound."
"At this point, the 20-year-old student sought help at the Northern Arizona Center Against Sexual Assault, but chose not to file a police report. She waited until August 21 to report the sexual assault allegations to local police. Six days later, Hildwine was suspended from his post at the university.
