UPDATE: Former Iowa football player Abe Satterfield will plead guilty to a charge of assault with intent to inflict serious injury, according to paperwork filed this morning in Johnson County District Court.

Sentencing is set for July 23rd at 9 a.m.

Court paperwork says that Satterfield will testify for the state in the case against his former teammate, Cedric Everson.

The court paperwork also says that Satterfield will get a suspended sentence and probation in exchange for his testimony. He’ll also pay a $600 fine and there will be a no contact order with the female victim in the case.

Satterfield and Cedric Everson III, both 21, were accused of attacking a woman in an unoccupied Hillcrest Residence Hall dorm room on Oct. 14, 2007. The former defensive backs were accused of second-degree sexual abuse. Satterfield was also accused of third-degree sexual abuse.

Both had previously pleaded not guilty. Everson is still scheduled to go on trial in July on his second-degree sexual abuse charge.

Check back for updates.
