Also charged: Alan Anderson, a former Washington Wizards and Los Angeles Clippers player; Shannon Brown, who played for the Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers; and Tony Allen, a six-time NBA All-Defensive Team selection.

Allen’s wife, Desiree Allen, is the only woman and non-NBA player charged in the indictment.

The list also includes William Bynum, Christopher Douglas-Roberts, Melvin Ely, Jamario Moon, Darius Miles, Milton Palacio, Ruben Patterson, Eddie Robinson, Gregory Smith, Sebastian Telfair, Charles Watson Jr., Antoine Wright and Anthony Wroten.
 
so uh, i remember Ruben Patterson as a kid and his dumb "Kobe stopper" nickname, but i just looked at his wikipedia page and holy shit:

Patterson was involved in a number of off-the-court issues during his basketball career. Patterson would have to register himself as a sex offender to establish legal residency in many U.S. states, due to pleading guilty in 2001 to attempted rape of his child's nanny in September 2000.[6] It was reported that he forced the nanny to perform a sex act on him

The NBA was cool with a registered sex offender playing in their league for seven years.
