Ex-Aramark Worker Charged in NRG Stadium Restroom Case as Parents Sue Over Hiring

Detectives are seeking additional witnesses in the ongoing cases.

Overview

  • Ushay Marquise Nixon remains jailed on felony counts of indecency with a child and attempted aggravated sexual assault tied to a Dec. 14 Texans game at NRG Stadium.
  • Court documents say surveillance shows a stadium worker follow an 8-year-old into a men’s restroom, and a bystander later reported an interaction that “didn’t look right.”
  • The child told police the man locked a stall and removed his clothing before the boy pushed past him and fled; Nixon denied assaulting the boy and told investigators he mentioned a Pokémon card collection.
  • The boy’s parents filed a civil lawsuit naming Nixon, Aramark Sports and Entertainment Services of Texas LLC, and ASM Global Parent Inc., alleging negligent hiring and supervision.
  • Aramark says Nixon is no longer employed and that it is cooperating with authorities, while Houston police have asked the public for tips and are working to identify the Good Samaritan witness.
