He was let into her suite and began grabbing the 27-year woman's breasts. She kneed him in the groin, he collapsed, and she fled the room, the report said. He then allegedly vomited all over the woman's bathroom. Campos was expelled from his training program and ordered to undergo substance abuse treatment. The incident effectively ended his military career, the Web site said. ``I have apologized to NBC and Nash for not informing them about the incident,'' Campos said in a statement issued Monday by NBC. ``I had believed that it was a private matter that had been resolved.'' NBC did not make Campos available, and he did not object to any of the facts outlined by The Smoking Gun. He said he didn't believe the incident was relevant to his participation in the show.
