Glee Star Mark Salling accused of rape to a 22-year-old woman after checking into the room to have sex. The woman who Mark Salling have been dating for several months changed her mind and said no, but Salling pushed himself to her and attempted to rape her. According to the police report, the victim keeps on telling Salling "NO, I can't do this."

The victim filed a report April, four years after the incident. But, the Los Angeles County District Attorney, who's reviewing the case, doubting to press charges to the Glee Star. The star has been facing a couple of charges since June when he was found possessing indecent and explicit pictures of children.

Although Mark's trial was delayed for him to find a lawyer as confirmed by the United States Attorney's Office, he was forced to wear a GPS to inform officials his locations after been prohibited in schools, parks, arcades, and much more. Mark was pleaded not guilty by the federal grand jury on two counts.The aftermath of these controversies makes Salling's career into a big halt.

Recently, the star was cut from the new series he was shooting with named God's and Secrets. Director Adi Shankar stated "'Gods and Secrets' will be moving forward without Mark Salling. He has been cut from the mini-series, I will personally be paying for the reshoots, and I hope that Mark finds inner peace. Furthermore, a percentage of profits from the project will go to a charity for abused children."

"Hopefully some good will come of all of this and I pray that when the dust has settled, the hyper-connectivity of the information age that has brought to light the transgressions of several public figures, will also force us to look within our society to identify and eliminate the root cause of the rape culture we exist in."
