A University of Kansas student accused of sexual assault faces two felony charges.

Jon Jacob Myers, 18, was arrested early Thursday morning at KU’s Oliver Hall, 1815 Naismith Drive.

On Friday afternoon Myers, who is currently an inmate in the Douglas County Jail, appeared in Douglas County District Court via camera where felony charges of aggravated sexual battery and sexual battery were filed against him.

Myers’ attorney, Casey Meek, said his client has no prior criminal history and, in consideration of Myers’ age, asked Judge James George for a $10,000 bond. Prosecutors requested a $30,000 bond.

George set Myers’ bond at $15,000 and scheduled him to reappear in court on Nov. 30 at 2 p.m., when a date will be set for his preliminary hearing.

Myers was arrested at Oliver Hall after two women reported that he touched them inappropriately on Wednesday night, KU Public Safety Deputy Chief James Anguiano said.

One woman reported that Myers touched her inappropriately; the second woman reported that he did the same to her but that he also tried to rape her, Anguiano said.

If Myers posts bond, George ordered that he not return to Oliver Hall or have any contact with the women.

Douglas County Jail booking logs listed Oliver Hall as Myers’ address.
