Actor MARIO LOPEZ of TV's "Saved by the Bell" has been saved by

Prosecutors said Thursday they will not file sexual assault charges against
actor Mario Lopez, who appears in the NBC-TV teen comedy "Saved by the Bell,"
because of a lack of evidence.
Police began investigating Lopez, 19, after an 18-year-old claimed he raped
her April 28 after she went to his house to watch movies. Lopez was never
arrested.
"A physical examination showed a lack of evidence indicating forcible rape
and there were statements from witnesses that contradicted some of the woman's
account," said Deputy District Attorney Peter Longanbach.
After the woman appeared on a tabloid TV program, another woman came forward
to tell police about an alleged similar incident in 1991, the District
Attorney's office said.
The second woman had never reported the alleged assault to police, but she
had told counselors, prosecutors said.
The woman appeared credible, Longanbach said. But the fact that she had not
reported the incident for 18 months, and the lack of physical evidence,
prevented the filing of criminal charges, he said.
Lopez, who grew up in this San Diego suburb and now lives in a small
guesthouse next to his family's home, denied the charges.

Prosecutors announced that they will not seek charges against television
actor Mario Lopez in the alleged rapes of two local women. One woman had
accused Lopez, 19, who appears on the NBC-TV daytime high school sitcom "Saved
by the Bell," of raping her in April at his home in Chula Vista. After her
allegation became public, another woman said Lopez had raped her in 1991. Deputy
Dist. Atty. Peter Longanbach said there was no evidence to support either
allegation. In the April case, there were witnesses who contradicted the woman's
account of her encounter with the actor, Longanbach said.
