MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Newly released records reveal that University of Wisconsin officials never issued a reprimand to former top athletic official John Chadima for a 1998 incident in which he allowed a star football player to drive his truck while drunk.

The Wisconsin State Journal reported Friday on records it received from UW-Madison. Those records contradicted statements made by then-Athletic Director Pat Richter who said after the 1998 incident that Chadima would be issued a letter of reprimand.

Chadima resigned last month after a male student employee accused Chadima of sexually assaulting him at a pre-Rose Bowl party in December. Since then, police have said they are investigating two other complaints of sexual impropriety against Chadima.
