The motion noted that state prosecutors said they had conducted an independent review and found that some allegations could not be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. Two of the women who have accused the couple of assault declined to speak with state prosecutors, Martinez said. If Bromberg signs off, the state’s case will concentrate on allegations involving the alleged sexual assault of one woman, identified as Jane Doe 6, on April 16, 2017. Robicheaux and Riley each faces a charge of assault with intent to commit a sexual offense against the woman. Authorities say the woman woke up in the couple’s home during the sexual assault and ran to the bathroom, where she locked herself inside until the next morning.
